    The two planes will request clearance this coming Monday at 14:30 p.m., where American pilots will transfer the “keys” to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and to the Commander of the IAF Maj.General Amir Eshel.

    The Commander of the IAF will place the White Star of David sticker, the emblem of the IAF, on the jet that is expected to transform the IDF to the leading military in the middle east for the next 40 years.

    A day after, the IAF promised, the jet will perform its first flight over Masada fortress. From their the jet will undergo a transformation where IAF systems will be installed and will be adjusted for Israeli systems.

    The process will take several months after which the fighter jets will be operational.

    Built in the US by Lockheed Martin, the Israeli F-35s have components built by Israeli companies – including Israel Aerospace Industries, which produced the outer wings, Elbit Systems- Cyclone, which built the center fuselage composite components, and Elbit Systems Ltd, which manufactured the pilots’ helmets.

    According to senior Israeli officers, as well as senior US officials, the F-35 is the ultimate stealth fighter jet, able to evade enemy radar, including the Russian-made S-300 missile defense system deployed in Syria and Iran’s Fordow nuclear facility, while flying at supersonic speeds. With close air-support capabilities and a massive array of sensors, pilots have an unparalleled access to information while in the air.

    Israel is the first country to receive the F-35 outside the US and once the jets land in Israel, they will not leave the country, excluding combat missions.

    Last Sunday, the security cabinet unanimously approved the purchase of an additional 17 F-35s, which will bring the number of the advanced jets in the IAF to 50.

    The Zionist who always poked at European Jews calling them “Schnorers” are THE biggest Schnorers. Taking and begging America for anything they will give.

    To the religious frum flaming Zionists remember this:
    לא בחיל ולא בכח כי אם ברוחי אמר ה’ צבאות
    אין המלך נושע ברב חיל גיבור לא ינצל, גיבור לא ינצל ברב כח

    If Hashem has a plan, no one can divert it. Ash Carter and Barak Obama presided over this transfer. After all the screaming, this is pretty ironic.

    May the Israeli military have S’yata D’shmaya and safely defend the Jewish People wherever they are.

    the U.S. has more out of sending these jets to Israel: 1) they get tested by the worlds BEST pilots 2) the pilots will tell the US if any changes & upgrades are needed 3) they’re tested in REAL LIFE unfortunately
