That is a wish list, but the case here being that UAE had to accept Israhell to get permission to PURCHASE, unfortunately we dont have pockets deep enough to pay for those items. So lets keep at not accepting Israhell for the time being

These will be new off the assembly line. The ones that were slated for Turkey (which are also new birds anyway and twice as many as what the UAE is asking) are slated for Greece! They just expressed interest in them and are in early discussions.

Iran is getting Su-30. BTW, Iran and UAE are allied against Erdogan's Ottoman expansion. Iran and UAE fight against Turkey together in Syria and Libya and Armenia and Greece / Cyprus.
