Dann sollten wir versuchen einen unserer alten CH-53/S-65 wenigstens fürs Museum zurück zu bekommen, was meint ihr! :-)

In Deutschland blickt man mit Neid darauf, wie schnell diese Entscheidung fiel. Vielleicht sollte man in Berlin und Koblenz zu dem Schluss gelangen, dass was Tsahal genügt, der weniger kampferprobten Bundeswehr erst recht genügen sollte.

Selbst wenn der reale Systempreis (ohne Support-Paket und Zubehör) geringer ausfällt; 3,4 Milliarden geteilt durch 18 ergibt 188,9 Millionen. Wahnsinn.

Israel to receive additional CH-53K helos
The US Navy (USN) has contracted Lockheed Martin to build a further eight CH-53K King Stallion heavy-lift helicopters for Israel, the company announced on 24 August.

The Foreign Military Sales (FMS) agreement was part of a wider USD2.7 billion contract for the manufacture of 35 Lot 7 and Lot 8 helicopters to be delivered from 2026 and brings the number now under contract for Israel to 12.

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) is to field a bespoke ‘exportable variant' of the CH-53K, featuring newly developed country-specific systems and sensors. Israel selected the CH-53K as its replacement for the Sikorsky CH-53D Yasur, opting for the platform over the Boeing CH-47F Chinook and Bell-Boeing V-22 Osprey.
