More F-15s for Israel

According to reports from Tel Aviv, the Israeli Air Force plan to purchase additional batches of F-15 aircraft from the United States, including a ‘squadron’s worth’ of advanced F-15s, and either CH-53K or CH-47 helicopters to replace existing CH-53 Yasur aircraft. In related news, the Israeli Air Force have struck targets using F-15I fighters against “high value assets” in Syria. During the raid, they faced SA-5 Gammon surface-to-surface air missiles launched against them and one SAM was shot down by an Israeli Arrow 2 anti-ballistic missile system, making its combat debut.
