The IAI Lavi was Israel's attempt at a semi-indigenous fighter plane, save for an American-designed engine, which was scrapped in favor of the F-16 Fighting Falcon, which the Lavi was believed to be equally matched with in terms of performance.

After several years of negotiations, the RavenCorp administration made a deal with the Israeli government for the plane schematics & the rights to build the aircraft in other factories. Using an engine design also bought by RavenCorp, the Lavis have been produced for fighter service.

Estimated number in service: 2 squadrons
