I know right. I always wonder where do they store their weapons?? I mean all of their air force plus tanks and many more must have a surface area so large it takes up a significant land of their country.

Guys, you should check Singapore. Its 694 km2 (32 times smaller than Israel), but armed with:

24 F-15E
74 F-16 block 52+
49 F-5
8 AEW&C

156 MBT
362 light tanks

6 submarines
6 frigates
6 corvetes
11 anti submarine patrol vessels


---------------------------------------

Also 2/3 of Israel's territory is Negev desert, it is pretty useless expect for army training.

What nonsense 694km^2 and 8 AWA&C.

We are getting total 8 AWACs where as two will serve PN. Hence PAF will operate 6 to to look after PAK aerospace while experts said that 4 could do that job easily.

But again 694km^2 and 8 AWA&C

What nonsense 694km^2 and 8 AWA&C. .............

Unlike the PAF the Israeli Air Force has an offensive doctrine

 

[DESERT FIGHTER]

Unlike the PAF the Israeli Air Force has an offensive doctrine

Our strategy = OFFENSIVE DEFENCE... See the past examples... i.e Raid of Pathankot.... IAF was destroyed.

[Mosamania]

[500]

Probably vertical takeoff tiltrotor Panther UAV will be used in future:
