Is that gun the Tavor which the soldier is holding???

[kryp]

the UAV can be built in 5 minuts and ready to action. i saw a nice video about it. its GPS guided and it has a camera

[Balam]

Tavor and drones, nice conbination :D

Great photos. Some of them are not of the IAF though. The Black Apachies are American (Israel doesn't usually have Black colored choopers, especially apachies). They dont have the Star of David too.

The deseret picture of the 5 Apachies looks odd too, it doesn't look Israelis, but they do have an Israeli camo painting.

The white Kfir airplane is great too, went out of production. It was an Israeli design for an Israeli Mirage airplane.

[kryp]

NadavN i think u worng, the white plane is the LAVI, which is 100% israeli. look like su27\30 in the front, in my opinion.

[NadavN]

Well nothing wrong at what me and you said, they're practically the same thing.

I said: "The white Kfir airplane is great too, went out of production. It was an Israeli design for an Israeli Mirage airplane.".

It is an Israeli design made by the IAI (Israeli Air Industries). Lavi = Kfir = Arye = Lion. Now here I just might be mistaken by the name, but as far as I remember Kfir and Lavi are the same out of production aircraft (either that or the IAI has picked the same meaning of a name for two different aircrafts :tongue: ).

After I wrote the above paragraph I went to check google and apperantly you were right.

Kfir however has the same meaning of Lavi in Hebrew. Yet they are two different aircrafts that look almost the same. Kfir resembles the Mirage however.

Here are some links:

http://www.aerospaceweb.org/aircraft/fighter/lavi/

Both Israeli design that went out of production.

[kryp]

oops, i didnt see the "too" :P

myabe the kfir,lavi and Arie got the same name in hebrew, but the lavi could be better, and its look better for sure :P

Thanks for posting the great photos, especially the Ya'sur. Anyone have anything from receint IAF magazine they could post? Yes, even non-helicopters would be great. :)

[Juan Xixon]

Beautiful pictures and nice airplanes...

;-)

[shelory]

the pics are verry cool, just i have some things to say...
israel has Apaches, and i would guess that the ones in the pic are Israeli.

the levie is not 100% Israeli, its engine where US (F16's) as israel didint have the capacity to build complex systems like that (it could be that now they do) and it was cheaper to buy the all ready tested US engine, and some of the avionic and computer components where also US. one of the main reasons that the program was canceled was because the US wasn't willing to sell israel the parts of there new F16's to someone that was going to make a competitor to the F16 that might have surpassed there new plain, they wanted to sell the hole plain not just some of its components.

[tycom]

very good!

[philtang]

i was lucky to shot somes hercules at the Ben-gourion airport from my plane window

[philtang]

the best photo i ever shot: a F15 flying over the Mitzpe Ramon crater in the Negev desert (june 2007)

[philtang]

Can somebody identify which country is this israeli F16 flying over? perhaps Turquey...
