The first of three radars, a US$35 million purchase, arrived in the DR from Israel yesterday. Armed Forces Minister, Lieutenant General Pedro Rafael Pena Antonio said that the radars are key for the effectiveness of the eight Super Tucano Brazilian airplanes, purchased last year by the government at a cost of US$80 million.
