I am interested to study how SAEQAH is doing in Yemen.

I am interested to study how SAEQAH is doing in Yemen.

These are the army's special forces paratroopers, the kingdom's most elite special operations units of Battalion 85 and they're not involved as of yet in the fighting in the Saudi southern borders (There are no Saudi forces in Yemen). If they are to join the Yemeni/Saudi-Houthi/Saleh conflict they'll most probably be in Aden rather than the Saudi borders

Saudi SOF were in Yemen BEFORE the airstrikes started.

beautiful ma shaa Allah.. will have some. with nukes please.

you know what.. give us the whole thing
List of missiles of Pakistan - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

im sure saudi is working with pakistan in some of those missiles project ? do you know anything about it ? or what pakistani missiles we already have ? i think it might be confidential

No.. for now Saudi is not working with Pakistan in any missile project.
But those missiles will be ready and directed whenever any country try to invade our Holy land..

Hi brother, I think we cannot get a reliable sources in this matter especially.
As you mentioned, all what we know is those 3 missiles and the Astros II MLRS .There are some reports/news talks about Pakistani missiles ,but it's still just assumptions need confirmation .

However, If you look at this force you will know it's not established for 2 or 3 types of missiles :

For me, I like surprises like this :

Agree.

@Rakan.SA I think we should listen to Mosamania's advise .
or if you really want infos you can explore the Arabic forums.

I think KSA already have them.. But as per International arms rules you can not sell a missile of range greater then 300 km range.. So Yes,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, it's a SECRET........

Are you sure these aren't photoshopped? These curlbros need to stop skiping leg day.

Why does Saudi Arabia spend so much money on its military - yet its military is so weak?

i.e No powerful destroyers, nuclear submarines, aircraft carriers or amphibious warfare ships?

Navies are the most expensive part of any military and Saudi Arabia doesn't see the need for a strong one. The Arabian Gulf is an incredibly shallow body of water and the Red Sea is chock full of reefs and underwater hazards. Both are ill suited for submarines. Planes equipped with ASMs can patrol the entire Saudi sea zones without much effort.

Aircraft Carriers? Very very very few nations have them. China is much stronger than Saudi Arabia but they only just got an aircraft carrier. Russia can barely afford to keep their own.

As for Destroyers,Saudi Arabia has been looking at the Arleigh Burke class for a while now.

You need at least 8 submarines as more Frigates and Destroyers.

They don't understand international relations than talk why USA always need NATO

Find another playground to play in troll and go educate yourself. KSA has welcomed more Burmese refugees than any other country on the planet nor is Pakistani participation in Yemen needed for anything other than political support and experience in mountain warfare.

KSA has achieved all the goals in Yemen so far, the rest is up for the anti-Houthi' elements to take care of (and trust me they will eventually) as long as there are no ground troops. That itself would be a failed move IMO as Yemen's incredibly rugged terrain and Houthi's being a guerrilla force is a recipe for waste of life's and resources. One just has to look at similar insurgencies or what the US has been doing against the Taliban since 2001 in Afghanistan. A Taliban that is much more poorly armed and which does not have the support of large elements of the Afghan army like the Houthi's have thanks to the Saleh moron.

We don't need more submarines. The Gulf is at its maximum 90 meters deep! A average of 50 meters. That is very poor conditions for submarines.

The Red Sea is deeper but it's chock full of reefs and other underwater formations. HMS Superb was damaged just traversing the area. In addition, the Red Sea is so narrow that most ASMs can hit any target from the shores of any of the countries that bound it.

Saudi Arabia is looking at buying destroyers (Areligh Burke last I heard), Littoral Combat Ships and Tigr class corvettes from Russia but considering how expensive these things are, it will take some time before any order is made.

Enhanced Weapon Configuration for Saudi F-15SA







The Advanced F-15 brings improved performance, enhanced situational awareness and increased survivability at a lower total life-cycle cost. Avionics advancements include a Digital Electronic Warfare Suite, Fly-By-Wire flight control system, an Infrared Search and Track (IRST) system and Active Electronically Scanned Array radar. Forward and aft cockpits feature advanced displays and Joint Helmet Mounted Cueing Systems.

Two additional weapon stations (outboard stations 1 – 9) were activated, providing increased payload capacity. The two weapon carriage configurations shown in these pictures display an AGM-88E AARGM in the air/ground configuration and two AIM-9X Sidewinder air/air missiles in the air superiority configuration. The later also carries a new pylon configured for four missiles – two AIM-120C7 and two AIM-9X carried on stations 2 and 8. The air superiority mission also benefits from an Infra-Red Search and Track (IRST) unit mounted in front of the cockpit.

The F-15SA’s made its maiden flight on Feb. 20, 2013at the Boeing facilities in St. Louis, Mo. Three instrumented test aircraft are flying to validate the F-15SA. New aircraft deliveries to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia are scheduled to begin in 2015 and conclude by 2019.

The new aircraft is the centerpiece of the Royal Saudi Air Force F-15 Fleet Modernization Program, a wide-ranging $29.4 billion effort that stands as the largest foreign military sale in U.S. history.
