"""John Golan's Lavi is a unique and welcome contribution to the field as the history of defence procurement, in general, remains a somewhat esoteric research area.""—Richard Shimooka, From Balloons to Drones ""[An] excellent book.""—Moshe Arens, Jerusalem Post ""An excellent read for Airmen.""—Maj Matthew C. Wunderlich, USAF, Air Force Research Institute “A fascinating read, Lavi includes multiple books in one, discussing the tactical reasons leading to the development of the Lavi; examining the evolving political and budget intrigue leading to its cancellation; and offering a detailed technical analysis of the Lavi versus its alternatives. An important addition to Middle East aviation history.”—Lon O. Nordeen, author of Air Warfare in the Missile Age and commentator on the History Channel"
