We had not. . .news report to the contrary.

The MOP is too big for ANY Israeli jet. It simply can’t fit on their jets.

And, an FMS sale/transfer has a hard requirement for Congressional approval and that would never happen.

And, times two, any FMS sale/transfer like this would require thousands of people keeping silent about the weapon being transferred to a country that can’t even fit the darned thing on their own aircraft. It would be useless.

And, times three, right now we don’t have that many in our own inventory as it is still under development.

Another Post of mine (above) above has other comments.
