The Syrian army said its warplane was on a mission against the Islamic State (IS) group when it came under fire on Sunday, according to state television.
It said the incident would have "dangerous repercussions" on efforts to fight terrorism.
The US said it acted in self-defence after the Syrian regime dropped bombs near US-backed fighters.
"In accordance with rules of engagement and in collective self-defence of Coalition-partnered forces [the plane] was immediately shot down," said the US military in a statement.

Silly leaf, it's rule one of US self-defense:
We said it was coming right for us, therefore we acted in self-defense.
>>130448799
Fuck Israel
Russian backed Syrian government forces engage with Syrian fighters backed by the US. US retaliate in a show of air dominance.
Why are the US backing ISIS?
