You talk like if we were living in the 70s!
The largest military budget in the world is the US one with more than $700 billion a year, not even China and Russia combined come any close to it.. let alone what you are talking about concerning the Arab coalition.. and still the US suffered and made suffer a lot in it wars in Afghanistan and Iraq.. without clearly winning.. But this is a different story.. only the difficulty of the terrain and the type of militia warfare that is the same.. the political background is different.
Your talk makes me also think about the 500 Saudi tanks they have claimed to have destroyed..

WTF
USA directly involve in Yemen and Saudis are acting under US command to destroy Yemen.
also European countries are involve too and they provided bomb and logistic support for Saudis to kill Yemenis children and women.
while country like Iran from first day invited two side of conflict to negotiation table and peaceful process to solve problem but unfortunately Europeans and Americans are in favor of selling more bomb to Saudis and against peace process.

Which ever missile took it down, whoever provided them..I damn care for these details... It is a defensive weapon and they have all the right in the world to defend themselves. No one is allowed to kill innocent Yemenis. Really a moment to rejoice and I hope they strengthen their ADS. But they should not attack KSA especially the Hijaz and those long range missiles have been illegally provided to them. I don't buy the crap from Irani mullah's here that Houthis are able to develop these missiles themselves...that is simply a nonsense. I'm not taking any sides here nor do I need to please anyone. I just fear Allah and tell the truth.

only minority houthis backed by Iranian militia are allowed to kill yemenis

 

[Trango Towers]

according to Al jazera it was a Tornado plane and it developed a technical fault and crashed while the pilot bailed out

http://www.aljazeera.com/news/2018/...shes-yemen-pilots-escape-180107182349027.html

It's always the same when aircraft are shot down they have technical faults.....Yes the fault is your pilot screwed up

صنعاء | 08 يناير | المسيرة نت: أعلنت قوات الدفاع الجوي، فجر اليوم الاثنين، إصابة طائرة F15 تابعة للعدوان في أجواء العاصمة صنعاء بصاروخ أرض جو.

تأتي هذه العملية بعد ساعات قليلة من إسقاط طائرة من نوع "تورنيدو" تابعة للعدوان في مديرية كتاف بأجواء محافظة صعدة أثناء قصفها لأهداف مدنية.

وكان قائد القوات الجوية والدفاع الجوي اللواء الركن طيار إبراهيم الشامي حذّر في وقت سابق الليلة، قوى العدوان من الاستهانة بقدرات الدفاعات الجوية اليمنية، مؤكداً أن المعادلة ستتغير في قادم الأيام بإذن الله.

TEHRAN, Jan. 07 (MNA) – Houthi-controlled Saba news agency reported that Yemenis had managed to shot down a fighter jet belonging to a Saudi-led military coalition over the Yemeni northern province of Saada on Sunday.
Yemen's Houthi rebels said they shot down a fighter jet belonging to a Saudi-led military coalition over the Yemeni northern province of Saada on Sunday, Houthi-controlled Saba news agency reported. Enditem

Yemeni air defense forces, according to what Houthi-controlled Saba news agency reported, have intercepted and shot down a twin-engine and multirole Panavia Tornado combat aircraft belonging to the Saudi-led military alliance involved in the aerial bombardment campaign against Yemen.

A Yemeni military source told Iran’s Press TV, on condition of anonymity, that the fighter jet was targeted on Sunday evening as it was flying in the skies over Kitaf wa al-Boqe'e district in the country’s northwestern mountainous province of Sa’ada, Yemen's Arabic-language al-Masirah television network reported.

The source added that the aircraft was struck with a surface-to-air missile fired by Yemeni forces.

The jet had purportedly taken part in airstrikes against residential neighborhoods in Yemen. The development was also reflected on the official Twitter page of al-Masirah.

Thats a Mig29 in PIC. Since when did Saudis started flying Russian Migs

What jet was shot down there? F-16?

Saudis dont operate F16s.
Only F15s, Eurofighter Typhoons and Tornados for these roles

Has Saudi Arabia denied it?

 

[Hack-Hook]

Bombing the missile sites is also right thing.

So which missile took down the jet?

if I recall correctly Yemen has no missile site , and all their facilities get bombed first 24h of war

Which ever missile took it down, whoever provided them..I damn care for these details... It is a defensive weapon and they have all the right in the world to defend themselves.

its not Houthis who operate those missiles . its Yemen army that operate them

Under the Arab alliance.. backed by a UN resolution to support and protect the legitimate government of Yemen and the majority of Yemenis against the Houthi militia who wants to throw it.. the Houthi tribe is about one million persons, and the Yemeni population is around 28 million!!!

there is nothing legitimate about Hadi , he lost all legitimacy when he decided to become president for life.

When did he asked that.. any source? I think that Saleh who has just been betrayed and killed by Houthis was the one who wanted a lifetime presidency.. and rebelled when Hadi won the elections..

 

[Safriz]

At least they are sending a right message by attempting to shoot down the jet. Yemenis also shot down a spy drone on Dec 30, they are proving that they can defend their air space.

Why are you cheerleader so much?

 

[Hack-Hook]

When did he asked that.. any source? i think tat Saleh who has just been betrayed and killed by Houthis was the one who wanted a lifetime presidency.. and rebelled when Hadi won the elections..

he was a interim president for 2 years his only job was to held an election so the people of Yemen could elect a president after 2 years ended he not only refused to held an election but also extended his term so he could remain in office.
let me ask you a question dis Saleh or Qazzafi or Mugabeh officially asked to be president for life ?

 

[Zhukov]

Has Saudi Arabia denied it?

O bhai I meant Pic to sahi lagao. shot down or not is another metter. Why put Mig29 Image in the report while no one in Saudi Alliance uses Mig 29

 

[925boy]

What you will say If I told you that there are 99% chances Iran supplied Houthis with ballistic missiles and they are firing these missiles at KSA.

Its not 99% chance. its 100%. So i agree with you on that.
