One of the youngest and smallest nations, Israel has produced some of the worldโs fiercest weapons. In 1952, shortly after its War of Independence, Israel unleashed the Uziโฆa submachine gun that set the standard for nearly 50 years. Between 1950 and 1980, Israel fought three wars, and superior weapons became a matter of survival. We examine the Negev Machine Gun and the Galil Assault Rifle, designed to survive the rigors of desert warfare, and the Tavor 21, a lightweight 21st-century assault rifle.
