The bombs are part of a deal that IAF signed with Israel in June this year, for acquiring more than 100 Spice-2000 bombs under an emergency procurement powers of the services signed by the BJP-led government.
The Spice-2000 bombs were used by the IAF in Balakot during its attack on the Jaish-e-Mohammed camp in February.
