MW13, Rav Shlomo Zalman Auerbach, in a teshuva regarding the status of Eilat (the decensored version which iy”H will be published soon) calls the State “malchut”. As I previously posted, being that Eli Yishai is a member of the Security Cabinet this presumably is also Rav Ovadia’s view. Moreover, the Netziv in Haamek Devar on the mitzva of apointing a king says that elected representatives would have the right to declare war.
