IndiaTimes Saturday, 21 June 2025 ()
A Royal Navy F-35 fighter jet remains grounded at Thiruvananthapuram airport due to a persistent hydraulic issue.

Explained: Why IDF Never Used Hypersonic Missiles on Iran & Yemen| Unbelievable Details

Following the Israeli Air Force's (IAF) massive 'Operation Black Flag' air campaign across Yemen, a significant question has emerged: With global powers like Russia, China, and North Korea racing to deploy hypersonic missiles, why does Israel, a military powerhouse, continue to rely on conventional fighter jets? This report delves into the core of Israel's military doctrine to uncover the answer. The analysis reveals that Israel's strategic decision is not a sign of weakness, but a calculated choice based on its unique geopolitical reality. The IAF's elite fleet, including advanced F-15, F-16, and F-35 fighter jets, offers unparalleled flexibility and precision for striking nearby threats in Gaza, Yemen, or Iran. Unlike hypersonic missiles, which are designed for targets thousands of kilometers away, jets allow for real-time target adjustments, significantly reducing collateral damage against groups like the Houthis. This adaptability was proven during the 2025 strikes on Iranian sites. #Israel #IAF #IsraeliAirForce #HypersonicMissile #IsraelMilitaryStrategy #Israel #Yemen #Houthi #IDF #MissileStrike #MiddleEastConflict #IsraelDefenseForces #HouthiMissiles #IsraelVsHouthi #MissileAlert #RedAlert #Hebron #EinGedi #DeadSea #WestBank #IsraelUnderAttack #IsraelNews #IranCeasefire #MilitaryStrike #IsraelKatz Also Read Israel PM Netanyahu Faces Anger, And Tears In First Visit To Nir Oz Since Oct 7 Gaza Massacre :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/benjamin-netanyahu-visits-nir-oz-kibbutz-near-gaza-strip-011-7791019.html?ref=DMDesc Iran Casts Doubt on Israel's Ceasefire Commitment, Warns of Retaliation :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/iran-casts-doubt-on-israels-ceasefire-commitment-warns-of-retaliation-011-7786853.html?ref=DMDesc 'You Got Beat To Hell': Donald Trump On Iran's Victory Claim :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/you-got-beat-to-hell-donald-trump-on-irans-victory-claim-7785327.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.102~HT.408~GR.124~
