In Operation Shield and Arrow, all UAV squadrons took part, registering about 4,000 flight hours in five days of campaign. Even before the operation, and in the shadow of public criticism of the reservists protesting the legal revolution, the pilots participated in operations in Syria and Lebanon.

The most notable achievement was the triple elimination that was carried out within five seconds and announced the start of the operation. According to a senior Air Force officer, the challenge was the timing of the attack and required exceptional skill and precision on the part of the pilots.
