Filming Locations
The movie was filmed entirely in Israel, making use of Menahem Golan and Yoram Globus's newly opened GG Israel Studios facility in Jerusalem. The Beirut, Tel Aviv and Athens airport sequences in the film were filmed at Ben Gurion International Airport in Tel Aviv, apart from the opening scene where one of the hijackers is seen getting off a taxi at Athens airport, which was indeed filmed at the Eastern terminal of the defunct Athens Ellinikon International Airport while the interior of Athens airport was filmed in Ben Gurion International itself. In some sequences, Hebrew lettering and Israeli Police emblems are visible on some of the supposed Lebanese airport barriers. Pentagon and midnight oceanic scenes were shot at a warehouse in Jaffa.
The military aircraft (notably the Hercules C-130) used in the film was on loan from the Israeli Air Force. The lease arrangement was similar to that used for Iron Eagle.
