Israeli airforce is amazing only country after singapore have both deadly killer F 16 and F 15 dont know why Saudis dont want to have that killer combinations with them if they get atleast 100 F 16 with F 15 and EF they will be very very hard to be beaten

Main advantage of small one engine jets like F-16 is that they are cheaper to purchase and maintetance. But money is not a factor for Saudis.

But a combination of Typhoons and F15's is also very deadly. I would choose a typhoon over a F16.

Wats tht towel things on the helmets?

Here is little article about it:

Photos of Israeli soldiers taken throughout the war show them wearing big, floppy hats that look like shower caps. (Here's one example.) What's the deal?

They're for camouflage. The hat—called a mitznefet in Hebrew—attaches to a regular combat helmet and obscures its rigid, round shape. As the mitznefet flops about, it takes on an irregular form that's harder to recognize in a shadow or out of the corner of your eye. The hat also protects against the sun and the moon, which might reflect off the surface of the helmet. A standard mitznefet consists of reversible mesh fabric, with a greenish woodland camouflage print on one side and a brown desert print on the other. (You can buy one online for a few bucks.)

Helmet covers are not a new idea. A U.S. Army field manual produced during World War II instructed a soldier to watch out for his helmet: "Its curved, familiar shape can be identified by the enemy. One of your first steps in preparing for the job of staying alive to fight is to disrupt both the form of your helmet and the strong, straight-lined shadow it casts." The manual goes on to suggest slipping a net or a rubber band over the headgear and then stuffing branches and leaves around the edges.

Modern American troops typically don't wear anything like the mitznefet, but they're still told to "cam up" their headgear with bits of foliage. Some soldiers attach strips from a cut-up battle dress uniform to their helmets, which turns a standard-issue K-pot into a camouflaged "rag top."

When I served 10 years ago Galil was in use in armor and artillery corps. Today its phased out.

Galils are still in use in Estonian army, they have nice mods:

And also Colombian army. Colombia got also new model called Galil Ace:

More pics from Estonian and Colombian armies with Galils:
