guys,

I have a question;

These planes that the Saudi Air Force retires, where do they end up ?

Same goes for other military hardware ... where does it all go ?

We sell them to other countries i believe.

I doubt that. It may have happened for some equipment; but most of it needs to get dismanteled and stored / recycled some how.

I just want to know the process.

As for the 24 Tornado ADV, they were sold back to the UK, although some news talked about giving them to Morocco. But I think they are in UK. Regarding the 83 F-15C/D, no valid news about their destiny, but they are fully operational as for now. And as for 120 F-5, they are being used for advance training, reconnaissance missions and close ground support.

Ah, so point in interest, F-5 are not being retired from active service; they are being re-allocated.

again, I doubt all 120 of them are assigned for training and ground support.

No one knows for sure how many F-5 are still operational, anyway let Mosa confirm.

Most of the fleet was sold to Brazil. 5 remain in the recon role. About 30-40 of them are in training. Not much else.
