Adir in the Skies of the Middle East The F-35I “Adir” is the first fifth-generation fighter jet operated by the Israeli Air Force and is also the most advanced military aircraft in the Middle East.

Its name “Adir” means “Mighty One” in Hebrew. F-35Is participated in combat operations in 2018.

To better meet combat needs, the Israeli Air Force equipped the F-35Is with Israeli-made munitions such as the SPICE 1000 precision-guided bomb and the Python 5 air-to-air missile.

The SPICE 1000, fitted with foldable wings, has a maximum glide range of over 100 kilometers, far exceeding many conventional air-to-ground missiles, and possesses the capability for stand-off range precision ground strikes.

Thanks to the outstanding performance of the F-35I, it has completed multiple air-to-air interception missions.

In 2023, it conducted its first interception of long-range cruise missile over the Red Sea. MENG will soon release the offcially licensed LS-018 1/48 Lockheed Martin F-35I Adir (Israeli Air Force) model kit.
