agreed that u survived the past but today the armys r different their weapons r as good as urs their traning is the same as urs but today if a war occurs it won be the same as in past .geographically israel is at a very wrong pos for a war it is surrounded and that as in the past have made it in a defender and IDF knows it well thus all the long range weapons but today (if the arab world united ever) u ll face an enemy much more organized and using the same tactics as u ie long range stand off war thus saying israel ll survive another war is not correct due to 100000000000000000000000000 reasons yes the may hold back but survival is dufficule more of a MAD theory at work (no offence to jews ,my quarell is with israel and the ideas on which it stands.)
What weapons are as good as Israeli? Israel is superior in weapon quality, if anything the gap is widen, 40 years ago there were practically no Israeli defense industries, and still won/withstood wars with on par and even better equipped armies, nowadays Israeli weapon industry is well know worldwide, exporting billions annually, for 2009 Israeli exports in the arm sector placed fifth worldwide, IDF itself has a vast R&D sector to meet unique problem solving approach that nowhere else can be purchased.
Just one example,There are only five countries that produce AWACS core technology, USA Russia China Sweden and Israel.
Israel is superior in weapon technology, we have to! otherwise we be extinct...
Im not saying Israel is invincible, an all out war is not a walk in a park, it is difficult and there would be casualties, losses...
