The billion-dollar deal that is stirring up Israeli army
Senior IDF officers say that Israel should not have purchased three new submarines from Germany, but rather invested the money in air and ground defense.
On Oct. 26, the Israeli Cabinet secretly authorized a huge weapons transaction that developed under the radar over the recent year: Three additional Dolphin-class submarines will be purchased from a German shipyard in the port city of Kiel. A memorandum of understanding between Israel and Germany is expected to be signed this month in Berlin.
