US State Dept approves $24.3 billion sale of 48 F-35 jets to Saudi Arabia

[retaxis]

can they lock onto israeli jets or are they only able to be used against american enemies?

 

[Oldenwisdom...قول بزرگ]

MBS is still hoping that his jizya will put him in good graces. And his clever by half tricks and tactics keep falling back on his face.

His assumption of Saudi ability to project power hit a brick wall and cost the kingdom an arm and a leg...
Now, again instead of suing for peace, he doubles down. Going bad to worse...

Can Chinese-made jets lock on to other Chinese-made jets? It's a silly question.

Israel has never attacked Saudi Arabia, and Saudi Arabia has never attacked Israel. I doubt this will change with the acquisition of F-35s.

So no right? Chinese jet fighters definitely locked onto rafales and su-30mkis lmao
Guess 500mil each fighter for protection racket and can't ever shoot down israelis who they do not recognise as a country.

u know ur screwed when ur ally won't even come to ur aid against houthis, usa definitely screwing over the saudis selling them overpriced junk that can't shoot down israeli jets.

Why do Chinese care that against whom these weapons work.
They should worry that even if F35 is overpriced and said to be "handicapped", Saudi are preferring this over Cheaper and more "open to use" Chinese superpowder jets.

If I can remember correctly KSA interested in J-35 in past when US congress rejected sale of F-35 to KSA because of Israel's protest, its deal to stop KSA from buying J-35 from China but it is extremely expensive deal only 48 F-35 for almost 25 billion $$$ lol, standard price of 3 versions of F-35 for USAF/USN and for US marines and for NATO customers are 85-120 million $$$, that means KSA is paying 3 to 4 times more $$$ for most probably USAF version (F-35A) for USAF its price tag is 85 million $$$, In this amount KSA can easily 100-150 J-35 from China if we will assume export price of J-35 will be in between 75 to 85 million $$$, lol what a waste of money by KSA lol

Lol without regular codes, the f-35s won't even work. Sucks for saudis if they ever have a change of government

Why would China sell its 5th or 6th gen to saudi? Saudi is a US lapdog state and has no choice but to hand it over for US to inspect. Typical low IQ indian logic must be the stunted growth and poor nutrition.

KSA needs stealth air superiority jet like j35 (more intended for air superiority F-35) than, F-35 just ugly stealth strike/CAS jet with secondary air superiority missions

Why don't stunted Chinese sell them to own lapdogs like NK , Iran, or "our neighbour".

 

[shapurzolaktaf]
