Israel increases production of air defense systems amid rising Iranian ballistic missile threat, Iran fears Trump F-35 deal with Arabs

Recently, it has been reported that there is still a competition between Iran and Israel to increase their weapons stockpile. Israel’s defense industry increases production of multi-layer air defense systems amid rising Iranian ballistic missile threats in the region. The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) rely on a mix of indigenous high-tech systems and advanced imported platforms, emphasizing precision, survivability, and multi-layered defense. Currently, IDF is producing large-scale weapons, especially Merkava Main Battle Tank (Mark 4/Barak), Customized F-35I Adir Stealth Fighter, Multi-Layered Air Defense Systems (Iron Dome, David Sling, Arrow 2/3), Spike Anti-Tank Guided Missile, and advanced Tavor X95 Assault Rifle. Recently, the Israeli Defense Forces resumed Strikes on Syria, Lebanon, and Gaza to counter Iranian-Backed proxies and maximize its goal to occupy possibly the lands of foreign nations. On the other hand, Hezbollah, Hamas, and Houthis are increasing their defense capabilities near the border with Israel.

Why are Israel and Iran afraid of Trump’s F-35 deal with Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Qatar?

On the other hand, the Trump administration has recently been sharing technology of F-35 and top advanced weapons with America’s biggest allies in the Middle East like Qatar, Saudi Arabia and UAE, due to which Israel’s defense industry is now afraid that if Israel does not completely occupy Gaza, then the countries of the Middle East can also become the biggest enemies for Israel. Actually, Saudi Arabia, UAE and Qatar are very afraid of both Israel and Iran due to the F-35 deal, due to which it seems that Trump can attack both Israel and Iran in future because after attacking Qatar, Israel is afraid of the new US-Qatar defense treaty because if this time Israel attacks Qatar again, then in future it is also possible that US can also launch a retaliatory strike against Israel in collaboration with Qatar. Actually, Israel and the Arabs are big friends of the US against Iran, but like Iran, due to the increasing dominance of China and Russia, Qatar will also take action against Israel one day. Although Israel and the US have been very close to each other for centuries, since Israel is completely failing in Gaza, Syria, and Lebanon, the US has agreed to give weapons like F-35 to Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE. Saudi Arabia endorsed the RSAF Eurofighter Typhoon instead of the F-35, F-22, and F-15E. Qatar has confirmed it will bomb Tel Aviv independently under the US sell F-35 treaty to Qatar, and if Tel Aviv makes another mistake of bombing Doha.
