Ireland’s luxury presidential jet may be grounded in bad weather—thanks to a missing Israeli-made navigation system. The $53 million Dassault Falcon 6X, built in France, was stripped of its critical FalconEye tech from Elbit Systems, because Ireland’s 2024 defense ban prohibits Israeli-made equipment. Yet the same company supplies systems on Ireland’s own helicopters, creating a confusing contradiction. Critics call it ideological overreach and incompetence, while the Israeli embassy accuses Dublin of “rabid anti-Israel brain rot.” The Irish Defense Department insists the plane is fully operational—but with no backup system, rough weather could spell trouble for the country’s most expensive aircraft.
