I recall Israel's Independence Day in 1995 when I was blessed to be there, walking through the narrow streets of the Old City when several jets like your first photo flew low overhead to honor the day; it was thrilling and memorable. The deep roar of their engines made everything vibrate as they passed over.

Although - the top two are actually different aircraft, the very top is an F-16, and the second is an improved F-15. Still, I didn't know anything about the last one, and its nosecone really made us chuckle :)tobyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02539537363084834903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5419317517202470182.post-30511219916856553122013-05-13T15:13:48.326+03:002013-05-13T15:13:48.326+03:00The top plane, a defender of freedom I'd say, ...The top plane, a defender of freedom I'd say, is an F-16; the canopy cockpit windows indicate that it is with two-seats, with twice the capable pilots manning its defensive capabilities. Utilitarian in style yet beautiful as protectors of the populace...<br /><br />I don't know what the second plane but the third is an IAI Westwinds business jet - I assume here as a tester of radar systems given its long nosecone. Again, no style...however a beauty as it helps with defending the people. Nice aeroplanes!Ralphhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09330927601223362873noreply@blogger.com
