hmmm... Malaysia's lack of diplomatic relations with Israel has not stopped it from have defence dealings with Israel...[/b]

Yes, am a casual israeli air force watcher. You are right abt the configs - the latest Air Force Monthly also published this pic as well.Originally posted by espanol_man:IAF: "F-15Ds flypast over auschwitz last august."
IAF, u must be a fan of Israeli AF or Indian AF? the lead F15 has Rafael AGM142 Popeye with Litening pod. Left wing man from Eagle Sqn has Python4 under wing root... lethal combination man...

i got it wrong? just becos they dun see eye to eye sometimes dun mean got no dealings... Singapore orso say we got no defence dealings with them, but some of us know better rite?
here's a hint: ask the RMAF engineers who was behind their C130, Hawk and Mig29 upgrades...[/b]
Originally posted by espanol_man:Oh Israel wont sell to Malaysia anyway.Anyway it's a known fact that israel has helpped us alot.It was in a book somewhere that they helped us set up our army and has since maintained a strong relationship with us.And seeing as to how our SAR21 and their TAR21 looks the bloody same i wont be surprised they work on it together.Other things like our F-16's looking like the israeli f-16's(most prob same kind of package)....and we are using alot of they're electronics.....

also those camel-humped skyhawks based at hasanuddin AB in makassar, sulawesi. In to the political thriller, Timor Man (based on historical facts), there's some background info abt the first batch bought from israel - under a deal brokered by the US. When the skyhawks landed in indonesia, they still had their star-of-david markings on. Anyway, those skyhawks became infamous becos' they were used against the then east-timoreseOriginally posted by eurofighter:However for Indonesia, they got a few ex-Israeli heli(Dauphine if I am not wrong).
er... i'm not talking abt the lengthening of the C130 fuselage... the Israeli upgrade was comms/EW based... i'll leave it as that Elbit has upgrade packages for Mig29 (check with the PAF and Luffwaffe).Nope. The only RMAF C-130 upgrade by the Malaysians was only to convert it to C-130H-30 by lengthening the fuselage.
