Do you have an Arabic source for that?All these procurements include full and partial technology transfer..
Agree..but there might be something going on.. there are some Saudi trainees in Malaysia if I remember well.. and rumours about the German Type 216 design made in the US..and all Saudis agree that it is a requirement.. I think that the Saudi Royal Navy is slow in its procurements but when they are finalised, we find some of the best fitting systems to its needs.. So it is not bad to be a bit patient to get the best tailor made systems.. Look at the Pakistani deal for the 8 Chinese submarines.. everyone think that the schedule for delivery is very long.. but one can be sure they are going to be some of the best conventional subs out there..Saudis need to go for Submarines as fast as they can
It is a compilation from many sources.. it is all public domain information..Do you have an Arabic source for that?

There is a Saudi policy for any military system to be purchased there need be ToT, I am sure you have heard about it before.. I think Turkey too has a similar policy in arms procurements..
"The I-class frigate now going to Saudi Arabia is variant of the Ada-class corvette with a longer hull (by 14 meters) and heavier displacement (3,000-tons vs. 2,400-tons). It has similar anti-submarine warfare capabilities but also features a vertical launch system for a medium-range surface-to-air missile. It has 16 additional sub-sonic anti-ship missiles compared to eight on the Ada-class vessel."Links related to Ada class?
