The Irish government’s new $61 million “Air Force One” is coming without a navigational system for landing in bad weather — because it’s boycotting Israeli parts.

The Dassault Falcon 6X, designed to ferry Ireland’s leaders around the world, was purchased without the FalconEye system, a part which normally sits in the nose of the plane, allowing it to land in foggy or misty conditions, Irish outlet The Journal reported.

That is because the FalconEye system is made by Israel-based manufacturer Elbit, sources told the outlet.

Ireland’s governing Taoiseach, Micheál Martin, said that the Republic would not be purchasing Israeli-made products, in a speech in 2024 when he was still Foreign Minister.

The missing system could have come in handy in the Emerald Isle, which is famously one of the wettest and most overcast places in the world.

Ireland gets just 1,100 and 1,600 hours of sunshine annually, making it one of the cloudiest regions in Europe.
