Well, theres some Perry Class ships, Knox Class, MEKO class, and a bunch of German made subs.

All in all, a decent navy. And a serious Air Force, with over 200 F-16’s and a hundred F4’s.

ISraeli airforce outclasses them though, with 68 F-15 eagles, and 270 F16s.

68, never been downed in combat, reasons of hurt; right there.

Are their avionics internal, or contracted?

And most of their strike F-4s are F-4 2000’s purchased from Israel. I wouldn’t put it past the Israelis to put in an “auto-eject” button.

Yes, being an AF type myself, the first thing I checked was the flying inventory. The thing I am wondering about is the spare parts inventory for the flying stock. No spare parts, no fly. Has Bambi cut them off yet?
