A unique F-35I fighter jet of the Israeli Air Force has arrived in the country and will be included in the test flight squadron of Israel's flight test center. The unit is mainly responsible for the testing of airborne equipment, including the testing of airframes, weaponry, avionics integrated equipment, and airframe modifications.

  The aircraft has stayed in the United States after it rolled off the assembly line and carried out related tests. It can be seen from the exposed images that there are many calibration marks on this F-35 fighter, which are usually related to weapon testing. Now this fighter has the blue mark of the Israel Flight Test Center and the badge of the test flight squadron, plus the logo of the Israeli Air Force, making this fighter one of the most distinctive F-35 fighters.

  "For the personnel of the test flight unit of the flight test center, this fighter has brought new challenges." Among these so-called "challenges" is how to equip the F-35 fighter with advanced weapons developed by Israel. The Israeli Air Force also mentioned earlier that the F-35 fighter jet will be equipped with the country's domestically produced electronic warfare and communication systems. The weapons equipped for the aircraft are expected to include SPICE precision-guided bombs, as well as air-to-air missiles and other weapons made by Israel.
