they could do it without the aid
they could say give me all this if not no veto in un
not at this levels, they couldn't stop the lavi project, they couldn't take all the soviet military equipment we had, the progress in UAV's and so on

i think so so you have prove we help them?
now they can make stealth drones and
drones like global hawk we cant do
With the maturing and miniaturization of applicable technologies in the 1980s and 1990s, interest in UAVs grew within the higher echelons of the U.S. military. In the 1990s, the U.S. DoD gave a contract to AAI Corporation along with Israeli company Malat. The U.S. Navy bought the AAI Pioneer UAV that AAI and Malat developed jointly. Many of these UAVs saw service in the 1991 Gulf War. UAVs demonstrated the possibility of cheaper, more capable fighting machines, deployable without risk to aircrews. Initial generations primarily involved surveillance aircraft, but some carried armaments, such as the General Atomics MQ-1 Predator, that launched AGM-114 Hellfire air-to-ground missiles.

Our industry isn't as advance as the industry of the U.S.A but it's about innovation not about how advance your industry is.
Also, Israel lack the money to fund those big projects

so why dont we make avenger and stealth drones

Seven Months of “Adir” F-35IRelease date24.07.2017
Next articlePrevious article

After seven months of integration and preparation for IOC (Initial Operational Capability), the second “Adir” F-35I Squadron is on the horizon as its establishment team is expected to begin working next summer
Carmel Stern
“Every day something happens in the squadron for the first time: it began with the first flight, continued with the our first ‘dogfight’, the first time we flew in a formation of three and four, the first time we refueled in the air, the first time we loaded armament and the first time we dropped it. It is an absolutely fascinating process”, shared Lt. Col. Yotam, Commander of the “Golden Eagle” Squadron, which operated the “Adir” (F-35I) from Nevatim AFB.

What is the Fifth Generation?
“Integrating this aircraft is extremely complex. It is a long maturation process and it is fundamentally different to the way we integrated other aircraft such as the ‘Sufa’ (F-16I) ‘Baz’ (F-15I) or the F-4 Phantom”, explained Lt. Col. Yotam. “In contrast to them, in this case we are integrating an aircraft that is still being developed. Earlier generation aircraft had software updates, but in the ‘Adir’, basic systems are updates as well as software. The F-35’s development process is completely different from any other aircraft’s”.

“What is the fifth generation?” asked Brig. Gen. Eyal Grinboym, Nevatim AFB Commander. “The fifth generation combines the capabilities of a fourth generation fighter along with stealth. Once these capabilities are combined in a single aircraft, it becomes fifth gen. It makes the IAF rethink the way it applies its force”.

Apart from its stealth, the “Adir” is equipped with many other innovative elements. Mission debriefing, for example, a cornerstone in the IAF’s activity, is also advanced to the next generation thanks to various systems built into the F-35. “The primary difference in debriefing the F-35 is that the aircraft can ‘talk’ to us. When an ‘Adir’ pilot lands, we begin debriefing the sortie in the HAS (Hardened Aircraft Shelter)”, shared Brig. Gen. Eyal. “Before we approach the aircraft for maintenance, we unload a tape which details the aircraft’s data”.

Another Squadron
There is no telling what the next campaign will be like, but there is no doubt that the “Adir” F-35I will serve as a key element in maintaining the IAF’s air supremacy. “The fact that the F-35 allows us to operate in every theatre and any area, with full supremacy, is the reason we acquired it. Inserting a stealthy platform into a threatened environment allows me to work in shorter times, be lethal and effective and enable air supremacy”, stated Nevatim AFB Commander.

Additional “Adir” (F-35I) stealth fighters are expected to be integrated in the “Golden Eagle” Squadron and the IAF is already thinking forward to a second F-35I squadron, whose establishment team will begin working in about a year, in the summer of 2018.

“After seven months of integration, we feel a little more experienced and confident”, shared Lt. Col. Yotam. “All the people working on the ‘Adir’, under its wings or in its cockpit, understand that we are in the midst of a historical process which is deeply impacting the IAF, state of Israel and the Middle East in general”.

Israel weighing interest in STOVL-variant F-35

  • 03 AUGUST, 2017
  • SOURCE: FLIGHTGLOBAL.COM
  • BY: ARIE EGOZI
  • TEL AVIV


New threats faced by Israel have placed the potential purchase of short take-off and vertical landing (STOVL) variant Lockheed Martin F-35Bs as a high priority.

Discussions are under way, with Israel's defence ministry hoping to reach a decision before a new 10-year Foreign Military Financing agreement with the USA comes into effect in 2019.

Deliveries of conventional take-off and landing F-35Is to the Israeli air force continue, with the service having so far placed orders for 50 examples. The “Golden Eagle” squadron which operates the "Adir" and the air force's flight test squadron continue to adapt the stealth fighter to meet the nation's specific requirements, with this work including the addition of a number of Israeli-developed systems.

Israel's initial requirement was for 75 F-35s, and the need to replace older Boeing F-15 fighters – the oldest of which were delivered in 1976 – is becoming a high-priority issue.

Sources indicate that the Israeli air force will have to choose between obtaining additional F-35s – potentially including STOVL examples – or an advanced version of the F-15. No details have been revealed of the potential F-15 variant on which evaluations are being based, but this is expected to be capable of carrying an expanded weapons load.

What threats would make the F-35B a high priority for Israel?
