Germany's Crucial Role in Israel's Defense

Published: 2024-10-10

Germany has long been a significant supplier of military technology to Israel, a relationship that has evolved over 70 years.

Despite recent reports suggesting a reduction in German arms exports to Israel, the German government denies any halt in approvals.

This partnership includes collaborations on advanced radar systems and missile technology, crucial for Israel's defense against threats from Iran and Hezbollah.

German-built submarines and corvettes play strategic roles in Israel's military operations, although their use in the Gaza conflict has sparked criticism.

While Germany remains a key supplier, the U.

S. continues to be Israel's primary arms provider, highlighting the complex dynamics of international defense collaborations.
