Le hezbollah a confirmé que le drone lui appartenait et qu'il était de fabrication iranienne,je pense que c'est une provocation délibéré visant a crée une guerre ou du moin une escalade de quelques jours pour faire une diversion par rapport a la guerre en syrie et la crise économique que connait l'iran du aux sanctions.

Est-il envisagé une quelconque réaction de la part de votre armée ?

L'armée a envoyé des avions et des hélicoptères survolés le liban et simuler des raids,rien de plus.
nous ne sommes pas tombés dans leurs pièges(hezbollah+iran+syrie) déjà qu'ils ont pas réussie déclencher une guerre avec la turquie,c'est pas nous qui allons leurs fournir des excuses.

The F-35 will be the IAF's 'Adir'

Fighter jets in the IAF are usually named after birds of prey, such as the hawk and falcon, or powerful forces of nature like storm or thunder • This time around the IAF opts to name its state-of-the-art aircraft after its powerful capabilities.

The Israel Air Force has decided to name the stealth-fighter F-35, which it will receive from the U.S. no earlier than 2017, "Adir" meaning "powerful one."

"Adir" was picked out of 1,700 proposed names, and was suggested by the Nevatim Airbase near Beersheba.

Israel's air force developing drones to replace aircraft

TEL AVIV, Israel – Israel's air force is on track to developing drones that within four to five decades would carry out nearly every battlefield operation executed today by piloted aircraft, a high-ranking Israeli officer told The Associated Press Sunday.
The officer, who works in the field of unmanned aerial vehicle intelligence, said Israel is speeding up research and development of such unmanned technologies for air, ground and naval forces.
"There is a process happening now of transferring tasks from manned to unmanned vehicles," the officer said, speaking anonymously because of the classified nature of his work. "This trend will continue to become stronger."
Isaac Ben-Israel, a former Israeli air force general, said however there was no way drones could entirely overtake manned airplanes. He said there are just some things drones can't do, like carry heavy payloads needed for major assaults on targets like underground bunkers.
"The direction is drones playing a bigger and bigger role in the air force," he said. "In a decade or two they should be able to carry out a third or half of all missions. But there are still certain things you cannot do without a piloted plane."
Israel is a pioneer in drone technology. Its military was the first to make widespread use of drones in its 1982 invasion of Lebanon and Israeli companies are considered world leaders and export unmanned aircraft to a number of armies, including U.S.-led forces that have used them in Iraq and Afghanistan.
The unmanned aircraft have been a major part of Israel's arsenal in battling Gaza rocket launchers over the years. Drones were seen as crucial by giving soldiers eyes in the air, keeping watch over rooftops and alleyways in congested urban areas and notifying troops of threats or obstacles in their path. Israel insists its drones only perform surveillance missions but Palestinian witnesses have long claimed that Israeli drones fire missiles in Gaza.
The officer claimed Israel is second only to the United States in the range of unmanned aerial systems its produces. He said he was "aware" that American drones are capable of firing missiles, but refused to say whether Israeli drones could do the same.
The officer cited one technology recently unveiled: the unmanned Hermes 900 aircraft, developed by the Israeli military manufacturer Elbit Systems Ltd. and recently rolled out for Israeli military use.
It features double the performance capabilities of the previous generation of the same unmanned aircraft, the Hermes 450. It can carry up to 350 kilograms, features advanced systems of surveillance and reconnaissance and offers support to forces on the ground and at sea, according to a description of the technology on Elbit's website.
Israel is also looking to develop small tactical satellites that warplanes could launch into the earth's orbit, the officer said.
Unlike satellites in permanent orbit which are more easily monitored by other leading armies in the world, the tactical satellites Israel hopes to develop would be cheaper to build and less susceptible to interception because they would be launched during wartime and there would be less time for foreign armies to track their orbit, Israeli military officials said.

Israeli F-16 downs another Hezbollah UAV

An Israeli air force Lockheed Martin F-16 has shot down an unmanned air vehicle launched from Lebanon by Hezbollah militants. The threat was detected over the Mediterranean sea on 25 April and was destroyed shortly after by an air-to-air missile.

The encounter occurred at 13:30 local time, and an air force helicopter transporting Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu for an official visit to the north of the country landed as fighters were scrambled (file image of air force F-16Is below).

The interception was made not far from the coastal border between Israel and Lebanon. There is no evidence to suggest the UAV was armed or that it was aimed at an Israeli offshore pumping rig which has recently started to extract natural gas from the Tamar under-sea reservoir. The Israeli air force is operating special systems to protect this potential target for terror organisations.

Israel's latest interception of a UAV is the fifth such action to have been performed by its air force in the past decade.

Most recently, in October 2012, a UAV was destroyed over Israeli territory, after being flown from Lebanon and over the Gaza Strip. In November 2011, an unmanned aircraft - later identified as a Seeker - was also shot down by an Israeli F-16, having been launched from Lebanon. An Iranian-made Ababil UAV that was being operated by Hezbollah during fighting on the Israeli/Lebanese border was also destroyed by an F-16 in 2006, with its debris falling into the Mediterranean.

Since a similar occurrence in November 2004, the air force has fielded additional sensors that have improved its capability to detect unmanned systems trying to enter Israeli airspace.

Israel gets 5th German submarine


Vessel is expected to reach Israel only in 2013; Germany approved sale of sixth submarine, expected to arrive in Israel by 2017

An official ceremony was held in the German city of Kiel Monday to mark the handover of a fifth submarine to Israel's Navy. The ceremony was attended by Defense Ministry Director Udi Shani, Navy Commander Gen. Ram Rotenberg and other Israeli officials, along with their German counterparts.

In May 2011, a special ministerial committee decided to accept the recommendations of Defense Minister Ehud Barak , who promoted its purchase. Israel already operates four Dolphine-class submarines

The vessel is due a process of further development overseen by the Defense Ministry in collaboration with the Navy. It is expected to reach Israel within several months and dock at the Haifa Port.

"Rahav" is considered one of the most advanced submarines in the world and is the most expensive war vessel Ministry of Defense has procured for the IDF . The diesel-powered submarines are widely regarded as an Israeli vanguard against foes like Iran.

Last year the German government approved the sale of a sixth submarine, which is expected to arrive in Israel by 2017.

Tsahal mobilise en urgence 2000 réservistes pour un exercice surprise dans le nord

Tsahal a débuté aujourd’hui un exercice surprise dans le nord. 2000 réservistes ont été rappelés en urgence pour y prendre part. L’exercice s’inscrit dans le cadre du programme annuel des entrainements et devrait s’achever en fin de semaine.

Les réservistes ont été mobilisés à la dernière minute afin de tester la capacité des soldats à partir au combat dans un laps de temps très court.

« L’exercice met un scène une sitation d’escalade rapide de la violence. Dans ce genre de contexte nous devons pouvoir émettre des ordres de mobilisation et être prêts à combattre en quelques heures » , a expliqué un haut gradé du Commandement de la Région Nord.

« Le scénario inclut une dégradation de la situation à la frontière libanaise et des manœuvres au-delà de la frontière. »

L’officier a par ailleurs précisé qu’aucun exercice de ce type n’avait eu lieu depuis des années dans la région. « La réalité sur le terrain nous impose un état d’alerte particulier. Nous nous tenons prêts à toutes les éventualités, aussi bien sur le front libanais que sur les autres. »

« La situation en Syrie ainsi que les menacent portée par le Hezbollah contre les civils israéliens contraignent Tsahal à se tenir prêt à tous les développements possibles avec ses voisins », a rajouté un autre officier de l’armée israélienne interrogé ce mardi 30 avril.

Lancement de l’INS Rahav, le 5e sous-marin "Dolphin" israélien


opex360.com

Une cérémonie organisée à Kiel (Allemagne), le 29 avril, a marqué le lancement de l’INS Rahav, qui n’est autre que le 5e sous-marin de type Dolphin de la marine israélienne, assemblé par la division “construction navale” de Thyssen-Krupp Marine Systems (TKMS).

Ce sous-marin prendra la route d’Israël à l’issue de l’intégration de sons système d’armes, de facture israélienne pour l’essentiel, et de ses essais en mer, soit dans un an. Son prédécesseur, l’INS Tanin, avait été lancé en mai 2012. Son premier déploiement opérationnel est attendu dans les prochain mois.

Ces deux sous-marins, comme le 6e commandé par Israël et dont la coque est en cours de construction à Kiel, sont dotés d’un système de propulsion anaérobie (AIP), ce qui permet d’augmenter leur autonomie en plongée et de limiter leur vulnérabilité.

L’Allemagne a largement contribué au financement de ce programme. Ainsi, les coûts de construction des deux premiers sous-marin “Dolphin” ont intégralement été pris en charge par Berlin. Par la suite, le gouvernement allemand a accepté de financer la moitié du troisième navire, puis le tiers pour les quatrième et cinquième. Pour le dernier de la série, il est question d’une participation à hauteur de 135 millions d’euros sur 600 millions.

La marine israélienne compte disposer de ses 6 sous-marins d’ici la mi-2017. Ces derniers seront en principe tous basés à Haïfa et donneront ainsi à Tsahal des moyens de ripose en second, avec leurs missiles de croisières, dont certains pourraient être dotés de têtes nucléaires. Mais comme Israël n’a officiellement jamais confirmé disposer de telles armes, l’on ne peut pas être catégorique.

En tout cas, pour l’armée israélienne, ces sous-marins, dont les caractéristiques sont gardées secrètes, “passent près de 50% de leur temps en activité opérationnelle en dehors des frontières maritimes d’Israël afin de s’informer sur les mouvements de l’ennemi.”

Cobra tail rotor coating hid crack – Israeli investigators
A urethane coating on the tail rotor blades of an Israeli air force Bell AH-1 Cobra "Zefa" attack helicopter probably prevented the early detection of a crack that caused it to crash on 11 March, according to an assessment by an investigation team.

Two air force pilots were killed in the incident, which happened around 1h into a training flight being conducted from Palmachim air base in central Israel.

An investigation carried out by the service points to the development of a crack that was not detected during routine inspections, as it started in the leading edge of one of the aluminium blades that was protected by a urethane coating.


Israeli air force


The air force's final investigation report will be completed soon, following a series of additional tests.

The effects of extended use of helicopters in erosive environments are well documented, with main and tail rotor blade erosion among the leading drivers of a rotorcraft's cost per flight hour.

The addition of polyurethane coatings provides a means of reducing these costs, but require frequent touch-ups to prevent more severe damage. They also offer little protection from damage resulting from the sand cloud kicked up during take-offs and landings.
