The IAF has increased the drills throughout its bases following assessments that extremists will use missiles against IAF bases in a future conflict.
The Jerusalem Post quoted IAF sources as saying that bases are expected to operate even when under missile attack.
“Redundancy is extremely important since we cannot take a chance that if a depot is hit we will not have an additional storage centre.
“Soldiers need to know that this is a real threat that could happen and we have to be prepared to continue operating even if missiles are hitting around us,” the officer said.
