Unit 669 is preparing for a scenario of an Israeli plane being shot down - and is practicing rescuing air crews under fire in hostile territory. • The fighters, who have flown some 3,900 sorties in the skies over Gaza, Lebanon and Syria since the start of the campaign on October 7, are required to meet the "Golden Hour" test - the goal of which is to evacuate the wounded soldier in less than an hour for treatment at a hospital in Israel.
Every pilot's worst-case scenario came true last weekend. All militaries train for this moment – and they also know that when the plane is shot down, a race against time begins – to rescue the crew before they are captured • What happened in those dramatic moments of locating the navigator – and what are Israel's preparations for a similar event like?
