I always wonder, are we going to procure more AWACS(s) in the coming few years?

We currently operate 6 AWACSs, 5 King Air 350 EW and unknown number of Saab2000(some sources say 1 other sources say 4 we don't really know yet). so I think we're good

For some reason the Swedish company is not welling to disclose the Saudi SAAB 2000 deal to public neither the Saudis wants to do that either.

But why are Saab 2000 platform not public like other AEW&C and other equipment...There was a news but that deal never went though as RSAF didn't feel the need. Boeing 747 AEW&C is good option.

IF JF-17 deal goes though a good option for couple of ZDK-03 AEW&C like specification would be good.

Im sure the deal has went through already. SAAB is a partner with one of our aviation company Al-Mohwarean.

As I said for political reason related to Sweden, the deal has been kept silent.

We are known for the silent-sealing card we play off and on bro @Arabian Legend's point is valid.

The Boeing 747 AEW&C is good option indeed. But I hardly think we will ever consider it.

Merci pour la photos.

Let us hope for closer KSA-French ties and more military cooperation on all fields.

That certainly seems to be one way KSA is hedging its military relationships away from dependence on the US.
