Here’s How Israeli Military Technology Continues to Improve the US Military

The author of this op-ed is John Spencer. John Spencer is the Chair of Urban Warfare Studies at the Modern War Institute at West Point. He understands the profound value that Israel has to the U.S Military. Ignorant bigots such as Tucker Carlson, Dave Smith, Marjorie Taylor Greene and others do not. And worse, many Democrats are trying to block arms shipments to Israel, despite the numerous benefits Israel’s use of U.S military equipment bring to the U.S.

10 ways Israel has directly improved the U.S. Military:

1) Countering IEDs
2) Active Protection Systems
3) Israeli Enhancements to the F-35: Improving US Air Superiority
4) Targeting Pods and Precision Rockets: An Israeli-American Airpower Advantage
5) The Israeli Emergency Bandage: A Battlefield Lifesaver
6) Armored Bulldozers: A Critical Urban Warfare Tool
7) Military Working Dogs
8) Counter-Tunneling Technologies: Lessons from Israel’s Underground War
9) Iron Beam: Addressing the Drone Threat
10) Research and Development in AI-Powered Warfare: The Future of Combat

This is just 10, there are many, of how “the US–Israeli defense partnership will remain at the forefront of military innovation, ensuring both nations stay ahead of emerging threats and shape the battlefields of the future.”

How Israeli Military Technology Continues to Improve the US Military

By INSS, August 29th, 2025

After the 1973 Yom Kippur War, the US Department of Defense undertook an extensive evaluation of the conflict, commissioning no fewer than 37 separate studies, including a still-classified seven-volume report on weapon systems. American military personnel walked the battlefields alongside Israeli commanders who had fought there, analyzing the strategies and technologies that enabled Israel to prevail against overwhelming odds. The lessons drawn from Israel’s battlefield successes would profoundly shape US military doctrine, directly influencing the development of AirLand Battle doctrine and the “Big Five” weapon systems
