Israel is sounding the alarm after the U.S., under Trump, approved the sale of F-35 fighter jets to Saudi Arabia despite strong Israeli objections. The IDF warned the move could erode Israel’s long-protected qualitative military edge and reshape the Middle East’s strategic balance. Israel currently operates the region’s only F-35 fleet and has urged Netanyahu to formally oppose the deal. Trump confirmed the sale, though deliveries would take years, intensifying a rare public rift between Washington and Jerusalem.
