Country:  | Yep. Right out of the AvWeek Aviation Sourcebook 2007. Isreal no longer uses F-4s (at least operationally). I would have thought that Isreal would have had AGM-88 HARMs, but I can't find a reference for them.

Country: | A world without F4's?....I'm getting old.
That must mean they have a pretty fat inventory of capabile aircraft.
I hate to see a dogfighter or strike aircraft used as a platform for a anti-radiation missle.
Bring back the F-105!

Country: | I won't type in their full inventory, but here are tactical aircraft of merit...
F-15A (20)
F-15B (6)
F-15C (17)
F-15D (9)
F-15I (25)
F-16A (78 ) Thats an eight by the way. 
F-16B (17)
F-16C (78 )
F-16D (49)
F-16I (21)
As you can imagine, they are likely using the F-16D two seater for the SEAD role. With some F-15I and F-16I special operations capable.

I'd be a touch nervious about flying that for the first time fresh from the factory

Bring back the F-105! | Germany still uses the F-4 for Recon purposes. I had one fly over my helicopter on one of my last flights.

Country: | If I'm not mistaken, the Luftwaffe decomissioned the F-4 in 2005.

| I'd laugh if the Iranians launched a nuke at Israel and it landed in the Gaza strip on top of the Hamas HQ.

Country: | Oh, and Adler, my apologies. Germany is still using about 55 F-4s according the my sourcebook.
