Saudi Arabia still eyeing for V-22 Osprey purchase

The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA), having been in talks with the United States since October 2014 concerning the purchase of an unknown number of V-22 Ospreys, is currently possibly nearing a deal after a Bell-Boeing team visited Saudi Arabia recently. If a contract is signed soon, the country will be the second export country for the type, following Japan.

In May 2019, it was announced by the Pentagon that US allies could get advantageous pricing under a multi-year procurement contract if they close a Foreign Military Sales (FMS) deal before December 2020. Saudi Arabia is still one of the potential candidates that could make use of this offer, as are the United Kingdom and Israel.

I live along the James River in Virginia near Fort Eustis, Camp Perry and the various Norfolk Naval Bases. I see Ospreys doing practice exercises quite often out over the James River. They are very, very noisy! I don't see how they could insert Special Forces Teams in a stealthy manner....

You insert special forces behind enemy lines while artillery is doing its work.. it is very noisy.. Much noisier than the Ospray-22.. lol!

OK, so the enemy is under artillery attack and are surprised when special forces sneaks up on them from "behind". I was thinking of raids like to rescue hostages or capture high value targets. I guess you wouldn't use Ospreys for that!?

Middle East War Doctrine is different for those countries.

Blackhawk in combination with Apache are better for that role..

Osprey does not work.its just a rip off as most US weapons are.
