The three American-made fighter jets proved their worth on the battlefield, allowing Israel to target Iranian nuclear sites with precision.
In recent airstrikes against Iran, Israel deployed a combination of advanced aircraft, all American-made. The three aircraft involved in the strike were the F-35I Adir, the F-16I Sufa, and the F-15I Ra’am.
The Israeli aircraft were used to devastating effect, as part of “Operation Rising Lion,” which involved over 200 jets. Iranian targets in the attack included Iranian nuclear and military infrastructure.
The F-35I Adir is a customized variant of the American F-35 Lightning II, specially tailored for the Israeli Air Force (IAF). The Adir features Israeli-developed avionics, electronic warfare systems, and weaponry, enhancing the aircraft’s capabilities in stealth, precision strikes, and electronic warfare.
During Operation Rising Lion, the Adir was instrumental in the targeting of over 100 sites across Iran, including the Natanz uranium enrichment facility, missile production sites,
and air-defense systems. The Adir allowed the Israeli air force to penetrate Iranian airspace and disable advanced air-defense systems, such as its S-300 batteries, while minimizing exposure to risk. The Adir speaks to Israel’s strategic emphasis on advanced, stealthy, and precise air power in its military operations.
