IF Israel has flown the controversial F-35 in combat,
I believe the answer lives in the article or two above, whers Israel is considering purchasing more F-15s.
They didn’t buy them to park on the ramp and look pretty.
The IAF will probably have some of their best pilots in the F-35 squadron, and they will be looking for gun kills.
Tyler Rogoway is one of the best, most accurate writers on all things military. If he says the story of F-35Is flying combat missions over Syria is pretty much bunk, you can rest assured it very likely is bunk.
