in a $1.9 billion deal. At $210 million a piece, Hercules is almost too expensive to risk in any major confrontation. The existing Hercules planes are lightly used because Israel has no need for long-range transport aircraft. The new Hercules model offers no major improvements over Israel’s 35-year-old fleet.
Lockheed Martin employs scores of high-ranking Israeli military figures for lobbying.
Israel seeks to purchase Hercules C-130 aircraft | |

C-130 purchase will be of no use at as it’s said. But Israelis still spend money not particularly wisely.C-130 purchase is a bright example.
Probabbly Israel should apy more attention to Israel provinces but not to buying new planes which it won’t be able to use anyway.
C-130 Israel is so keen on buying will be a waste of time. Actually, it seems that Jews quite often waste their money without any sense. C-130 Israel needs, will turn out to be another disaster as no one will ever use it.
Instead of thinking how to protect the country, it is Iran Israel spends money on as these Arabs force Jews to buy as expensive stuff as possible because of their nuclear weapons.
