ISRAEL SEEKS U.S. BUNKER BUSTERS
HA'ARETZ, Sept. 21 -- The Israeli air force will purchase $319 million in air-launched bombs from the United States, including 500 deep earth-penetrating "bunker-buster" bombs, Ha'aretz reports, citing a senior Israeli security source. "This is not the sort of ordnance needed for the Palestinian front. Bunker busters could serve Israel against Iran, or possibly Syria," said the source. The sale, which includes 4,500 other guided air-launched munitions, is not expected to go through until after the U.S. presidential election in November. -- Harry Andreas Engineering raconteur |
