Made in KSA

[The SC]

I heard but can't remember where that Saudi is one of countries that British want to join in project

I love it just for its face
Sadly I can't marry with an armoured vehicle

30000?! But Saudi don't need all them!!!!!

KSA is huge..tanks can't cover it all..as you can see There are only 1000 tanks in the Saudi inventory.. by all means not enough..

The LAV-700 come in so many variants.. it is possible to absorb 30 000 of them easily among all the Saudi land forces..

A smart chip is an extremely small piece of hardware that includes a microprocessor for computing, or other resources for high-level data handling. The smart chip on a sophisticated modern card, such as a credit card or identification card, allows the card to function as a computing device or a drive-type data holder, which provides for various processes such as authentication and data storage..

It can also be used in military fields..

And the announcement of the Tuwaiq 1000 project for these camps to reach to all regions of Saudi Arabia from a distance..

Announcing the opening of Future Skills Camps

More than 50 camps in 18 fields such as artificial intelligence, data analysis, application development, electronic payment technologies, etc. The duration of each camp is 4 months..

The minister said that KSA has the ability and that means we can enter this field ..This is an area that requires a lot of investments..

Since 2012 an Egyptian newspaper reported on King Abdulaziz City for Science and Technology (Our Pride) its initiative to manufacture electronic chips..

is a semiconductor company founded in 2006 and headquartered in Santa Clara, California, that develops architecture-based microprocessors and system-carrying chip-based products for performance computing platforms.

This company has influenced the semiconductor field with the innovation of its microprocessor (VISC™), which has a stronger architecture and lower power consumption compared to the currently available processors. The 500MHz chip was manufactured using a 28nm process, through a joint development project between Soft Machines and King Abdulaziz City for Science and Technology, and this chip was highly acclaimed as a new breakthrough in semiconductor design. with Variable Instruction Set Computing. VISC processors contain a bunch of physical cores that are presented to software as virtual cores. ... A load-balancing frontend assigns physical cores to virtual CPUs executing virtual hardware threads.

Soft Machines and VISC Architecture

The company is in the business of licensing and co-developing VISC-architecture based Core and SoC products for IoT, mobile and cloud markets..
