Now, we wait - mainly - with very great anticipation the final conclusion of these purchases.

That will increase ‘very significantly’ our firepower (GCC).

I don't think you would need Jordanian air force support...

Yes, it's true.

But one day - in the near future -, him also (Jordan), it will be in the GCC. And there must be ‘great military interoperability’ of all members if necessary.

Really a great airforce number are enough to tell this just woooow.
but what is gcc??

Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) is a political, economic and military union (Peninsula Shield Force) of the Arab states bordering the Persian Gulf, bloc modelled after the European Union (EU), and located on or near the Arabian Peninsula, namely Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and United Arab Emirates.

These birds are not enough at all.

MORE THAN ENOUGH!

Gulf countries are mostly neutral, despite the bitter relations with Iran..which goes back a very long time!

Saudi Arabia to finance Jordan Eurofighter deal

Lucky Jordanians!

Are they officially a member of the gcc now?

...

It's in order to reassure, I suppose.

Lucky Jordanians!

No, not yet actually. But in the near future, yes. ^^

It should read completely the posts.

My remarks did not concern mainly Jordan. Currently nobody knows if Jordan will have well the Eurofighter Typhoon or not, and if so how much.

It’s the UAE, Qatar and Kuwait that I spoke mainly - ‘Rafale’ or ‘Eurofighter Typhoon’ fighter jet -. UAE needs 60 fighter jets, Qatar needs 24 and Kuwait 18 to 22.

Thanks for the clarification

 

[Arabian Legend]

Sir 72 Euoro Fighter were ordered buy Saudi Arabia have the received all of them and who ordered other 24 Euoro ?

RSAF operates 48 EF at the moment, the rest to be assembled in SA.

So they have got 48 by now good but Wikki is saying those other will be also manufactured in Britain not in Saudi Arabia

Eagle, why does Jordan not operate any AWACS air craft? F-16s equipped with AIM-120Cs and linked with E-3 AWACS would be wonderful..

Because in case of a military operation, KSA's Sentries will co-operate with Jordan's F-16s.
