The Israeli air force has requested the possible purchase of 100 GBU-28 bunker-busting bombs to boost the offensive capability of its Boeing F-15I strike aircraft. The US Department of Defense last week notified Congress of the proposed $30 million deal, which would cover the supply of 2,100kg (4,630lb) laser-guided weapons that would be equipped with the BLU-113 penetrating warhead.
