A stealth fighter jet, a revolutionary navy missile ship and the latest model of the Hercules transport aircraft are some of the military platforms the IDF General Staff will begin discussing on Monday as it convenes to determine the military's procurement plan for the next few years. On Monday, Chief of General Staff Lt.-Gen. Gabi Ashkenazi will convene the General Staff for a weeklong workshop during which the generals will approve the IDF's multi-year budgetary plan as well as its procurement program for the next five years.
The plan was drafted by OC IDF Planning Division Maj.-Gen. Ido Nehushtan.
Each IDF branch will come to the workshop with its procurement requests. The Air Force will ask for a budget to purchase close to 100 F-35 fighter jets, also known as the Joint Strike Fighter, under development by Lockheed Martin.
