Partially correct, and partially wrong. Israel is allowed to spend around 27% of FMS on their equipment they manufacture; the remainder is to be spent of US equipment.

Oh, and the IAF has already contracted to buy the F-35...

Thanks for the correction. I thought it was more like 50%, but I think 27% is still 27% higher than anyone else, right?

And I'm surprised they're not smart enough to avoid the F-35, but I guess it's just OPM and keeps their benefactor happy.
