Saudis after buying Israeli Iron Dome missiles: Report

Who is talking about the Patriot.. Saudi Arabia has a lot of it and will still get more..I pointed out the the SKY HUNTER system made by Raytheon..which is an improved version of the Iron Dome..and its availability from the US..
Just repbranded Iron Dome.

There are many choices for APS today.. be it from Europe, Ukraine, Russia or China..to name a few..KSA might buy an equivalent to the Usraeli Trophy system if it is provided and made in the US.. or most likely from another country who will provide Tot..
None is operational. Trophy is the only operational and only combat proven APS in the world.

Just repbranded Iron Dome.
Or the Iron Dome is the rebranded Sky Hunter..since the original tech ifs from Raytheon!
None is operational. Trophy is the only operational and only combat proven APS in the world.
The German one is very good and operational ..the others are testing or have finished testing.. Trophy sound like a good system.. but in the very unlikely extreme case _if Usrael decides all of a sudden to agree to the establishment of an independent Palestinian state_ , will Usrael sell it to KSA with ToT? It is very doubtful..
 
. . .
But they don't recognize Israel. How can they purchase such high tech equipment without Government to Government deal?
I don't think such Military grade equipment can be sold via private companies channels bypassing the governments of Tel-Aviv and Riaz
stop being naive and think outside the box.

Why would Saudi Arabia do such a thing.
Because Saudis perceive they are at such a disadvantage vis-a-vis Iran, they have to work(literally) with their "enemy" against this common foe. smh
 
.
Press TV is your source for this nonsense ? do you regard this a reliable source ???
Propaganda is always nonsense but it works.... on those, who are brain washed to believe Iranian shit is holier than..... any other shit.

P.S.: excuse my American English, ''shit'' = ''any thing'', don't get offended with the word.

If so than why Saudi only buy defensive equipment from Israel and not offensive?
While Saudi openly buy stuff from Europe, US, Russia, Pakistan... are they all common enemies of Iran ?
 
. .
Oh man! Do you want them to reveal their brotherhood with Israel so soon?!!! Not before killing all Muslims in the name of Shia-Sunni war? Com'on

UAE the little trouble maker doesn't recognize Israel too, but how come Israel had a big room in Dubai military exhibition to show their military products. How long are they gonna fool us?
propaganda.
it was also said that they have agreed with Jerusalem move but it come out to be a lie too.

Calling Iron-Dome with a different name doesn't make it American. Raytheon is the biggest sole source subsystem/technology provider for Israeli missile projects so You can see some "Israeli" missiles presented by USA institutes When they wished. It is very similar to LockheedMartin presenting Turkish cruise missile (under a deal signed years ago) called Som-J for F-35 costumers.

Saudi kings are working for Israeli pocket. It is not difficult to see their tendency.
If raytheon is selling a system made by israel under a different name then how is it filling israeli pockets?

On topic what a crappy misleading junk yet another milestone by presshytty tv

I am not naive. These American Favorite Saudis already have Patriot Systems and THAAD Systems are on order for them. And they have more then enough money to buy S400 from Russia as well.
Why would they want to buy a much inferior tech Iron Dome system which they cannot legally buy from a source that will create a river of controversies for them.
We should be objective when we discuss news not emotionally driven.

Or the Iron Dome is the rebranded Sky Hunter..since the original tech ifs from Raytheon!
Here from the official Raytheon site:

The Iron Dome Weapon System, developed by Rafael Advanced Defense Systems

It's the world’s most used missile defense system, intercepting more than 1,500 targets with a greater than 90 percent success rate since being fielded in 2011.

In 2014, Raytheon began providing a second source of subcomponents
for the Tamir interceptor missile.

will Usrael sell it to KSA with ToT? It is very doubtful..

Nope.... Its developped by Israel with the home security in Mind... US never needed Iron Dome,,, they don't have such threat of what Israel faces... But for some of the funds for the project does come from US as an Aid... there're many platforms which is being used by US which were dev in Israel.

Not possible without ToT..it is an official policy..so forget it..Who needs it when both THAAD and S-400 are coming and its availability and upgrade from Raytheon?

Raytheon is working toward production of a U.S. version of Iron Dome called the “SkyHunter™ missile” that could someday defend forward-deployed American forces.

According to the leading developers of Iron Dome, due to schedule and low-cost settings constraints, some of the missile components have been taken from a toy car sold by Toys "R" Us.
