Israeli Defense Update

Delivery to Israel of GBU-39s and 28s (both bunker busters meant for use against Iran's nuke and missile sites) is complete. The F-15I will be the primary aircraft in preemptive strikes on Iran and is the only platform in Israel's inventory that can deliver the GBU-28.

The IDF has ramped up training of air crews and some security/defense enhancements at Dimona (Israel's nuke center) have been detected. Civil defense training has been increased all over Israel. Israel has also deployed a submarine and a remarkable new intelligence and attack RPV (Remotely Piloted Vessel) called the "Death Shark" to the Persian Gulf, which can be used for many missions including destroying Iran's mini-subs, which they purchased from North Korea.

Israel believes Iran will field a deployable nuclear warhead this year. They will not allow that warhead to be fielded.
