The Israeli government has approved the acquisition of next-generation corvettes and “hundreds” of Joint Light Tactical Vehicles (JLTVs) to bolster its armed forces. The Israeli Ministry of Defense announced that the Navy will soon receive five Reshef-class advanced missile corvettes, intended to replace its aging Sa’ar 4.5-class vessels. These new corvettes will undertake various maritime missions, including combat operations and patrols. Additionally, Israel will procure an unspecified number of US-manufactured JLTVs for its maneuvering units. These vehicles are designed to support a range of operations, such as combat, troop transport, and search and rescue missions.
