In a $3-billion deal, Israel is set to purchase its third squadron of F-35 stealth fighters.

The 25 additional aircraft, produced by Lockheed Martin, will bring the Israel air force’s F-35 fleet up to 75.

The jets will be financed through a U.S. defence aid package, the Ministry of Defence confirmed on Sunday.

Outside of the U.S., Israel was the first country to acquire F-35s, and was the first country to use it in combat in May 2018, according to an Israeli air force chief.
