To answer this question we have to look at whether we are discussing modern
or ancient Israel.
In ancient Israel: Bows, slings, spears and bronze and steel swords.
Modern Israel has some of the most high-tech weaponry. Due to the gritty
nature of the environment they fight in, all their weapons tend to have very
low rates of misfire. Add to this a society where everyone spends some time
in the military and the reserve, and you have a potent military.
The Uzi was their first automatic weapon and is still considered one of the top
machine pistols and is used by many countries' secret services.
The Merkava is the current IDF tank and is built not only for desert service
but also crew survivability. This owes to the engine being mounted in the front,
acting as extra armor and a set of escape doors in the back that let the crew
out of the tank without having to expose themselves by climbing over the top.
The Tavor is the replacement for their aging NATO 5.56 weapon. Most who
have shot it say it takes no time to learn and is extremely accurate.
The Israel Defense Force also has an air wing currently flying F-15, F-16,
Apache and Cobra but will be adding the F-35 and several new aircraft as they
come online.
In short the IDF is a thoroughly modern armed force and this is just a short list
of the many weapons they use. The greatest weapon that Israel has and has
always had are the people of Israel, and, many say, the protection of an even
higher power.

Why does Israel have to give up weapons if syria does?
According to current negotiations, it does not. The reason that some people make the argument that Israel should have to give up weapons is to create a chemical and nuclear weapons free Middle East. This has the slightly sinister motive of making Israel appear more vulnerable. The premise of Israel having to level with Syria is flawed since while Israel does have nuclear weapons, it has never threatened to use them nor has it actually used them. Conversely, Syria has both threatened to use and has used chemical weapons both in war and against civilian populations. Those who misuse such weapons should be punished whereas those who do not need not be bothered.
