Pentagon Announces $9 Billion F-15 Deal with Boeing for Israel

The Pentagon announced a nearly $9 billion contract with Boeing for the construction of 25 new F-15IA fighter jets for the Israeli Air Force, with an option for the purchase of an additional 25. The announcement came shortly after the meeting between Donald Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu. The US remains Israel's primary arms supplier, despite protests and calls for a cessation of military support due to the war in Gaza. The delivery of the aircraft is expected to be completed by December 31, 2035.
