IF Israel has flown the controversial F-35 in combat,
I believe the answer lives in the article or two above, whers Israel is considering purchasing more F-15s.
Israel is committed to acquiring 50 total F-35s with a half-dozen or so to arrive each year.
That’s not nearly the numbers Israel would require in any kind of major war, so more F-15s and even advanced F-16s are likely to be acquired to replace early F-16 versions.
You win the prize for dumbest post today.
That is like saying someone test drive their new truck and then decided to motorcycle ‘instead’. Apples and oranges. The F-35 is only ‘controversial’ to dupes who buy the left wing hit piece articles about it. The pilots love it.
