The US approved the sale of accurate weapons to Saudi Arabia

In the latest US -Saudi arms deal under Donald Trump, the US Department of Defense announced that the US State Department agreed to sell accurate weapons systems to Saudi Arabia.

Earlier, the US State Department agreed in a contract last July that the United States sells logistics systems and joint planning plans and US -made aircraft systems and systems for about $ 1.5 billion.

At that time, the US State Department announced in a note to the Security Cooperation Agency that the proposed agreement would allow Saudi Arabia to provide its current and future military capabilities by providing training and support to the Saudi Air Force through current platforms and fleets, especially C-3 and C-Airplanes.

In the same vein, the Saudi military industry’s military costs said that military spending in Saudi Arabia saw an annual growth of 4.9 percent from year 2 to $ 1.5 billion in year 2, making Saudi Arabia the fifth country in the world and the first country in the Arab world in terms of military costs.

The delegation said that the costs make up 2.5 percent of the world’s total military spending, which is over $ 1.5 trillion, adding that Saudi Arabia has allocated $ 5 billion to the military sector in the budget of the year, accounting for 2 % of government costs and 4.9 percent of GDP.
