Hamas Should Be Scared: Israel s Strike Eagle Fighter is Straight Up Fearsome If Israel purchases more F-15s, it will almost certainly end up flying the platform for the better part of a century. Here s What You Need to Remember: The Strike Eagle’s performance in the Gulf War stirred Israeli interest. The Gulf War had not exactly gone as planned for Tel Aviv, which had been bombarded by Scud missiles launched by Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein.  A long-range fighter would be a necessary weapon for deterring or failing that destroying, threats from the east.  One of the fighter jets most associated with Israel is the F-15 Eagle. The first F-15 touched down in Israel in 1976 and the jet has served continuously and without defeat since. In 1998, the Israeli Air Force introduced a new version of the jet, one designed for air-to-air and air-to-ground combat. The Ra’am (Thunder) serves as the long-range striking arm of the Israeli Air Force, complementing the new F-35I Adir fighter
