Had to change the title to ensure it was not misleading.

It's pretty ironic that high-end systems like the PAC-3 are being sold to folks like the Saudis & Kuwaitis whose links with Slammic groups are visible to most folks who know how such groups are funded.& It looks like this is just the begining of more deals.Kuwait reportedly wants more F/A-18 E/Fs & the UAE is interested in advanced variants of the E-2 Hawkeye,not to mention numerous upgrades to existing systems like their Apaches & Abrams tanks.The Iraqis ain't around,so they can't be the threat & Iran's conventional military forces are close to obsolete when compared with the toys these folks have.So All I have to Israel in the longterm is,Watch out!!!!

The bestpart is that a democracy like India is only offered the PAC-2,while these folks are given the next generation.
