and it seems recruitment agencies are head hunting military pilolts for the Lebanese army.
guys. you are discussing the issue without knowing the purpose of those fighters. let aside if we will accept the gift. the Fulcrums will be used for fighting forest fires.
here is the story. last year there was a huge battle with terrorists who had a stronghold in north Lebanon. The army was in bad need for bombers. we have the hawker hunters of 1955 but they were out of service (expired). so the engineers used the gazelles which were used to fight forests fires. fitted it with Mirage F1 bomb lauchers and used 900 lbs bombs that were supposed to be used by the hawker hunters. the result we converted the helicopters to bombers and lost the fire fighting heliopters
