Israel has finalized a major arms deal with the United States, securing three full squadrons that include 25 F-35I “Adir” stealth fighter jets, 25 F-15IA “Thunder” fighter jets, and at least 12 AH-64 Apache attack helicopters. The agreement also covers thousands of munitions and is funded using U.S. aid. The deal is a strategic move as Israel continues its war against Hamas in the Gaza Strip and makes preparations for an all-out war with Hezbollah. High-level defense officials from both nations met in Washington DC to progress these defense deals, with Israel's Ministry of Defense announcing the conclusion of a working visit by Director General Maj. Gen. (Res.) Eyal Zamir.
Since the start of the war, at least 250 cargo planes and more than 20 ships have delivered more than 10,000 tons of armaments and military equipment to Israel. Staggering numbers when you think about it.
