Not a bad looking aircraft, but how long can it stay on station and drag fighters w/it to stave off fighter attacks? And inquiring minds must know, how much US technology is in that “Israeli” airborne radar system?
Once again, the US takes it in the shorts! BOHICA!

The aircraft is just a platform. Even a Boeing passenger plane could be modified to support it.
The radar is the main thing.
