I went looking to see if I could find any corroborating reports, but all I see are Iran-based news agencies reporting it as fact and everyone else reporting it as 'Iran claims', so.. I don't think it is yet.
Outside of Iran, who are you expecting to corroborate and how?
I doubt Israel/the US are going to come out and admit it.
Also allegedly it's up to 3 shot down with 2 pilots taken prisoner. I doubt they would lie about taking the pilots if they didn't even shoot them down.
Other media organizations. If only Iranian news reports it it's questionable. If other major news outlets report it (other than as 'Iran claims', which is all I've seen) it makes it a bit more credible because they have access to info I don't have. Obviously if Israel admits it that would be the gold standard, but that's never going to happen.
