    And what rocket or torpedo would you get for 2.5 million? Deliberately using singular here, because that’s about 5 IRIS-Ts or 2 Taurus missiles, which seems like a very unlikely order. Even more so when considering that the government went on record claiming that’s not the case. Would you lie for such a tiny order?

    If they did a delivery like that every week, I’d be suspicious

      That’s just it, I don’t know. And the government is being deliberately vague instead of just saying what they are shipping to Israel, or sending auxiliary weapons that are still being used in direct combat.

      I pulled that quote because I want to emphasize that it is not as transparent as your original comment is making it seem.
