In 2012 only GBU 16 were integrated (without self guidance though), so the most recent news were the integration of Damocles and clearance for Paveway IV, which was integrated by the UK. But the Saudi Air Force should also get the next Phase 2 Enhancements, which includes Storm Shadow and METEOR, although both are not ordered so far. But as you said, Brimstone is already available for the Tornado and should be integrated sooner or later for the EF too, I just was interested if there is any source for a faster integration.

Storm Shadow (Contract to integrate the weapon was signed - July 2014)

UPDATE: Farnborough 2014: Typhoon Storm Shadow deal signed - IHS Jane's 360 (17 July 2014)

Thanks, yes I know about the plans of the UK / EF partners, what I wanted to know is, if there is still an interest from the Saudi Air Force / Government to integrate Brimstone earlier, since the western media is not saying anything about that anymore.
British government is considering an early integration now, because of the IS crisis as some reports confirmed, wonder if Saudi Arabia joins that approach.
