In the Saudi_Semiconductor_Program, more than 120 Saudi engineers and students were trained in semiconductor manufacturing techniques.
KACST signs a memorandum of understanding with the China Electric Power Equipment and Technology Corporation and the Beijing Microelectronics Technology Corporation to establish a center for the design and manufacturing of electronic chips in smart cities and energy digitization.
There is cooperation between Egypt and Saudi Arabia, where MEMS research is conducted by Egyptian students at the CENA Center in Saudi Arabia
The agreement allows students to conduct part of their research at the Center of Excellence in Nano-Manufacturing Applications (CENA) in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

Saudi Arabia is in talks with South Korea to purchase the Cheonggung-2 defense system
Saudi and South Korean government officials announced on Monday that they are in the final stages of talks to conclude major defense deals.
Kim Tae-hyo, deputy director of the National Security Office, at a press conference in Riyadh, emphasized the growing importance of the defense industry in the relationship between the two countries, especially discussions on air defense systems and firepower weapons.
Details of these potential defense deals currently remain confidential. A presidential official revealed that it is in the contract drafting stage, stressing that the size and value of the agreements are large.
He also pointed out that security threats near the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia contribute to not disclosing the details of these deals. Disclosing information about weapons systems and their value could affect the ability of other countries to evaluate the quantity of units purchased by Saudi Arabia.
Cheongung-II system
One of the main defense systems being considered is the Cheongong-2 missile defense system, which is designed to intercept air strikes.
“Cheongong-2” is a medium-range surface-to-air defense system (SAM), called the Korean equivalent of the American-made “Patriot” missile defense system, which the UAE has concluded an agreement with Korea to purchase.
It was developed based on the “9M96” missile technology used in the Russian-made “S-350E” and “S-400” missile systems.
One battery consists of four to six 8-cell transport launchers (TELs), a 3D radar, and a passive electronically scanned array (PESA), and can detect targets at a range of 100 km and intercept targets up to an altitude of 15 km at a range of 40 km.
The missiles have anti-electronic warfare capabilities to continue operating, despite the jamming.

Moreb 1,2,3
Moreb system is a defense or attack system for day and night operations through surveillance, tracking, and target identification. The terrifying system is characterized by an advanced ability to control remote firing with high accuracy, and to hit the target from long distances. This prevents the crew from being exposed to counter-launching, and the monitoring mission is carried out through a system “Saqr” vision, which consists of a daytime camera and a thermal camera with superior range-finding capabilities.
Made for armored and combat vehicles..
It has been installed on a number of systems: M-ATV, UGV, MRAP

There are serious talks between Saudi Arabia and France to buy Riyadh Rafale fighters, which was confirmed by French Minister of the Armed Forces Sebastien Le Cornu, who mentioned the matter in a press conference, without giving additional details since he was “not authorized to comment to the press” about what was discussed in the talks. .
The French newspaper “La Tribune Dimanche” was the first to point out this issue, confirming that the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia had contacted the “Dassault Aviation” company to obtain a quote to purchase 54 Rafale aircraft, and the company had “a deadline until the first of November to respond” to the inquiry. Riyadh.
The bfmtv website indicates that Saudi Arabia’s interest in French combat aircraft has been clear for years, and the interest increased after the UAE concluded the deal, and it says that there is a possibility for Riyadh to buy up to 100 to 200 French fighters for 36 billion euros.
What plays in France’s favor, according to BFM-TV analysis, is that Mohammed bin Salman, the Saudi Crown Prince and de facto ruler in the country, wants to diversify the Kingdom’s partners in the military aspect, and reduce the Kingdom’s dependence on the American military industry.

BREAKING NEWS:-
Saudi Arabia has stated that it will make its own 
nuclear bomb, as 
Iran has already tested its bomb, raising concerns over a regional arms race.
The move could further destabilize the already tense Middle East situation.
Saudi Arabia has stated that it will make its own nuclear bomb, as Iran has already tested its bomb, raising concerns over a regional arms race. The move could further destabilize the already tense Middle East situation.
Saudi Arabia has expressed its openness to using the petroyuan for oil settlements with China, signaling a potential shift in its traditional reliance on the U.S. dollar for oil transactions. This development comes amid strengthening ties between Saudi Arabia and China, as well as a broader global interest in diversifying currency use in international trade.
Key Highlights:
Saudi Arabia's openness to using the petroyuan for oil settlements marks a notable shift in the dynamics of global oil trade. As both countries explore this possibility, it reflects broader trends aimed at diversifying currency use and reducing reliance on the U.S. dollar. However, significant challenges remain before such a transition can be fully realized, necessitating careful navigation of economic and geopolitical factors.
Key Highlights:
- Official Statements: Bandar Al-Khorayef, Saudi Arabia's Minister of Industry and Mineral Resources, indicated that the country is "open to new ideas," including the use of the yuan for crude oil settlements. He emphasized that Saudi Arabia will prioritize its national interests while exploring new opportunities without mixing politics with commerce
- Strategic Context: The move towards the petroyuan aligns with China's efforts to promote its currency in international trade, particularly in oil transactions. This follows an increasing trend of countries looking to reduce their dependence on the U.S. dollar, especially after geopolitical tensions have highlighted vulnerabilities in dollar-based trade systems
- Challenges Ahead: Despite Saudi Arabia's willingness to consider the yuan, experts caution that significant hurdles remain. The renminbi is not yet widely used in international finance, and there are concerns about liquidity and the ability to convert large amounts of yuan into other currencies. Additionally, many Gulf countries, including Saudi Arabia, peg their currencies to the U.S. dollar, complicating a transition to yuan-based transactions
- Broader Economic Ties: The discussions around using the petroyuan come as Saudi Arabia seeks to diversify its economy and strengthen its relationship with China. The two nations have seen substantial growth in trade over recent years, with China becoming Saudi Arabia's largest trading partner
- Future Prospects: While the adoption of the petroyuan for oil settlements may not happen immediately, ongoing discussions and economic ties between Saudi Arabia and China could facilitate its gradual integration into their trade practices. Analysts suggest that as bilateral relations deepen, there may be more opportunities for yuan use in various sectors beyond oil

As both countries explore this possibility, it reflects broader trends aimed at diversifying currency use and reducing reliance on the U.S. dollar.
