Watch the maiden flight of Israel's first F 35 fighter jet, the 'Adir' (video)

Israel’s first stealth fighter, a Lockheed Martin F-35 “Adir”, took its maiden flight, passing all of the tests with flying colors.

The flight, which lasted some 20 minutes, is the first operation of an Israeli stealth aircraft since the plane was formally “delivered” to Israel at a ceremony in Fort Worth, Texas in June.

The plane is one of two aircraft which are scheduled to be delivered to Israel by December 12th, 2016.
