US the largest supplier of Arms to the GCC states in most cases doesn't provide source codes for the weapons. It is also likely that most GCC assets won't even be able to navigate to Israel because embedded GPS is also US made and they install restrictions on them. They did that with Malaysia, Australia, Singapore and others.
Wrong. We lie the rules not the US otherwise no modification would have been done in the country. P.S The IFF purpose is to tell this thing is a Friend so that you don't shot and that requires a send-reply code verification b/t both side and has no control over locking on/launching of weapons whether on friendly or hostile < take that misconception out of your head. And No, the US wont put itself in such embarrassing position and risk its military market for something that hardly play any major role in the presence of something like AWACS and other means of early Foe identifications considering Saudi Arabia use of various of weapons.
Also Saying about the US restriction on GPS... is laughable, you don't know that every fighter jet is equipped with something called INS. Also you missed that Saudi Arabia is a partner in Galileo and Thales. furthermore, RSAF operates great numbers of Awacs for missions coordination, operations, collecting data, detection, friend and foe identification, jamming...etc and are equipped with High range air to ground and BVR integrated on the EF, F-15SA and Tornado.
As for Israel, the US knows we can reach and target... six minutes from Tabuk air base, not that far and can be hit from within our territory. That little spot has no strategic depth Or why do you think they are bitching about the growing of KSA air force and lobbying against our arm deals from the US to Germany.
Didn't mention RSMF.
A reference to the bolded part would be appreciated..
