>>17466813we have factories that produce the winds and all the avionics of israeli F35I are israeli made. in addition we have all the regular meitenance facilities in israel.
some countries dont have such facilities have to send their plane to another country for maintenance but we cant have that in case those countries embargo us so we have it all in israel.
we used to make our own fighter jets but being part of an international production line is the second best thing and makes economic sense right now.
