Establishment of a factory for the manufacture of special valves for oil, gas and petrochemicals in partnership with a European company specialized in this field.
You can be sure that SAMI leadership have thought about it..But with the contract to manufacture around 150 Blackhawk helicopters.. it is not a sure thing the Rooivalk Mk2 will be a priority.. it will depend on the kind of ToT Denel might offer.. if it can't be refused then KSA will make it in the frame of a comprehensive JV including other systems.. it is quite possible when seeing where things are going with South Africa..

@The SC Do you think starting the Rooivalk Mk2 with South Africa is a good idea? Saudi Arabia could air for exports and increase their attack helicopter fleet. It would also give Saudi Arabia valuable TOT when it comes to helicopters, and also Saudi Arabia could receive tech related to other Denel systems and Saudi Arabia has already started producing the Mokopa. I'm sure you would receive regional purchases from countries like Jordan, Morroco, etc.
