Saudi Eyes $257m Military Deal With US

by Amwal Al Ghad English

Saudi Arabia is interested in ordering a number of military tactical data exchange systems from the United States at a cost of about $257m.

The Defence Security Cooperation Agency said in a statement that it has notified Congress of a possible foreign military sale to the Government of Saudi Arabia for 10 Link-16 systems and intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) suites.

Link 16 is a military tactical data exchange network created and used by the United States and adopted by some of its Allies and by NATO.

With Link 16, military aircraft as well as ships and ground forces can exchange their tactical picture in near-real time.
