US Arms Israeli Regime with 50 F-35 Fighter Jests

US Arms Israeli Regime with 50 F-35 Fighter Jests

Alwaght- The US government agreed to arm the Israeli Regime with 35 more units of F-35 fighter jets that will bring the whole package of such jets to 50.

The fighter jets manufactured by the Lockheed Martin company are one of the most advanced of their kind and will be provided to Tel Aviv amid reports of the regime's repeated violation of Syrian territories by airstrike against the country.

Washington will provide Tel Aviv with the warplanes as part of its military aid for the regime with a $110m cost for each jet.

In two weeks, the first pair of F-35s are scheduled to land at the Nevatim air force base after being flown from the US by American pilots.

According to congressional reports released earlier in the year, Israeli regime is the largest cumulative recipient of US foreign assistance since World War II. America's military assistance to Israel has amounted to $124.3 billion since it began in 1962.

In September, Washington and Tel Aviv agreed on a new package of at least $38 billion in US military aid over a 10-year period.

The deal requires at least $3.8 billion in annual aid, up from $3.1 billion per year under the current pact, which expires in 2018. Israel had originally requested at least $4.5 billion a year.
