UAE Mirages to get Sniper pods
Jeremy Binnie, London - Jane's Defence Weekly
27 February 2020
The Dassault Mirage 2000 jets flown by the United Arab Emirates (UAE) Air Force and Air Defence (AFAD) will be the first of the type to use the Sniper targeting pod, manufacturer Lockheed Martin announced on 26 February.
It said it had received a directed commercial sale from the AFAD to expedite the delivery of the pods. It did not reveal the value of the sale or the number of pods involved.
The AFAD maintains a fleet of at least 42 Mirage 2000-9s, some of which are older aircraft that were delivered in the 1980s and subsequently upgraded.
The Emirati Mirages currently use a version of the Thales Damocles pod called the Shehab.

UAE appears to have ordered Wahash IFVs
Jeremy Binnie, London - Jane's Defence Weekly
21 April 2020
A Finnish export approval indicates that the United Arab Emirates (UAE) has placed an order for the Wahash 8×8 infantry fighting vehicle (IFV) developed by the local company Calidus.
The Wahash that was unveiled during IDEX 2019. (Jane’s/Patrick Allen)
Official documentation shows that, during a 12 March session, the Finnish government gave Sisu Axles and Katsa licenses to export axles and transmissions that Calidus would use in its own products. The Wahash is the only land vehicle promoted by Calidus.
Both companies produce similar parts for the Patria AMV 8×8 IFV, 40 of which were delivered to the UAE in 2016 as an urgent requirement while it continued to develop an indigenous counterpart.

UAE receives first GlobalEye AEW&C aircraft
Gareth Jennings, London - Jane's Defence Weekly
29 April 2020
The UAE is to receive three GlobalEye aircraft through to the end of 2021, with a further two expected to follow after. Source: Saab
The United Arab Emirates (UAE) has received the first of three contracted Saab GlobalEye airborne early warning and control (AEW&C) aircraft, the manufacturer announced on 29 April.
Saab said that it had commenced deliveries of the Bombardier Global 6000 business jet-based platform that were contracted to the UAE Air Force and Defence (AF&D) under the Swing Role Surveillance System award from late 2015. Deliveries of the remaining two aircraft are set to run through to the end of 2021, while an anticipated contract for two additional platforms has not yet been signed.
The ground systems had already been handed over to the UAE AF&D, ahead of the aircraft arrival.
The GlobalEye is built around the Saab Erieye Extended Range (ER) radar that is housed in the same external dorsal 'plank' as the company's original Erieye system. Equipped with Gallium Nitride (GaN) and other technologies, the Erieye ER is an active electronically scanned array (AESA) system that doubles the radar's power efficiency compared with previous Erieye iterations. It has a range in excess of 650 km that can be extended by focusing the radar's energy.
Saab said the Erieye ER is resistant to jamming and features all-weather functionality in all domains (air, sea, and land surveillance), as well as an "extremely high" tracking-update rate against targets of interest.
Besides the radar, the aircraft is also equipped with the Leonardo Seaspray 7500E AESA 360° multimode radar, as well as a retractable Star SAFIRE 380-HD electro-optical/infrared (EO/IR) sensor turret, automatic identification system (AIS) for shipping, HES-21 electronic support measures (ESM) suite, and countermeasures. Performance figures disclosed by Saab give the GlobalEye an endurance of more than 13 hours and a top speed of 450 kt.

Le Pentagone brade 4 659 MRAP aux Emirats arabes unis!
La décision officielle date du 7 mai : dans le cadre du programme EDA (Excess Defense Articles) et suite au feu vert du Department of State (DoS), le Pentagone va fournir jusqu'à 4 569 MRAP d'occasion aux forces armées des EAU.
Ces véhicules résistants aux mines sont des "MaxxPro Long Wheel Base (LWB), MaxxPro Recovery Vehicle (MRV), MaxxPro LWB chassis, MaxxPro Dash, MaxxPro Bases Capsule, MaxxPro MEAP Capsules, MaxxPro Plus, Caiman Multi-Terrain Vehicles without armor, Caiman Base, Caiman Plus, Caiman Capsule, MRAP All-Terrain Vehicles (MATV)".
Le coût total de cette FMS est estimé à 556 millions de $.
Entre 2016 et 2019, l'Egypte avait perçu 930 MRAP dans le cadre du même programme EDA.
Le DoD a acheté à partir de 2007, 28 000 MRAP de plusieurs types pour mieux protéger ses troupes embarquées en Irak et en Afghanistan. En 2012, la question se posait déjà de l'avenir de ces véhicules. Le Pentagone voulait se débarrasser de 12 000 de ses MRAP. Plusieurs centaines sont allés aux forces de police locales américaines qui en ont équipé leurs SWAT.

UAE K9 howitzer acquisition frozen under German arms embargo
by Kerry Herschelman
A South Korean bid to sell K9 Thunder self-propelled howitzers (SPHs) to the United Arab Emirates (UAE) have been impeded by German restrictions on defence exports to that country, a South Korean Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA) official told Janes on 7 July.

According to multiple sources privy to the negotiations, Hanwha Defense was to finalise a contract to deliver the 155mm/52-calibre SPH to the UAE in late 2019, but this has yet to happen due to Germany’s moratorium on arms exports to Saudi Arabia and the UAE.
The German defence export ban prevents the K9s from being delivered as they use MT 881 Ka-500 diesel engines made by the German company MTU Friedrichshafen.
The number of K9s the UAE is expected to order has not been confirmed, but Janes sources believe it would be about 20. The UAE Armed Forces currently has 85 M109/L47 tracked and 78 G6 wheeled SPHs.
Chancellor Angela Merkel announced in October 2018 that Germany was freezing defence exports to Saudi Arabia in the wake of the murder of Saudi journalist Jamal al-Khashoggi.
Trump Administration Pushes Arms Sale to U.A.E. Despite Israeli Worries
The Trump White House is quietly planning sales of F-35 stealth fighters and advanced drones to the Emiratis as part of a wider plan to realign the Middle East, but Israel and Congress may object.
WASHINGTON — The Trump administration has accelerated a push to sell the F-35 stealth fighter and advanced armed drones to the United Arab Emirates, at a time when the Gulf nation is working with the Trump administration on a historic plan to formalize diplomatic ties with Israel, according to American officials familiar with the discussions.
Administration officials in recent weeks gave a classified briefing about the F-35 to the Emirati military — despite some concerns among National Security Council staff about the wisdom of disclosing details on one of the Pentagon’s most advanced weapons to a foreign government before a decision about a potential arms sale has been completed.
American officials deny that the new push to sell the advanced weapons is a direct reward for the Emirati role in a diplomatic breakthrough, announced by President Trump last week, where the Emirates would become just the third Arab nation to recognize Israel. In exchange, Israel will suspend annexation of occupied West Bank territory.
But officials do not dispute that the new momentum on the arms sale — after years of stalled requests by the Emirates to buy the fighter jet — is linked to the broader diplomatic initiative.
Such a move could dramatically alter the military balance in the Middle East and is likely to face strong objections from some parts of the government in Israel, which has the jet and has been wary of the United States selling the aircraft to other nations in the region. Israel’s military has said such sales could weaken the nation’s strong advantage in the Middle East.
Without the support of the Israeli government, it is unlikely Congress would support the sale.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel strenuously denies that he gave even tacit consent for the sale of F-35s or any other advanced weapons to the Emirates as part of recent diplomatic negotiations with the White House. He insists he has consistently and repeatedly pressed Israel’s opposition to any such deal with American officials.
A White House spokesman declined to comment. Yousef al-Otaiba, the Emirates’ ambassador to the United States, declined to comment, as did a spokesman for the Israeli Embassy in Washington. Anwar Gargash, the Emirati minister of state for foreign affairs, has made no mention of any arms deal in his many comments on the diplomatic agreement with Israel.
Even if the Trump White House were to announce its intent, selling the F-35s would take six to eight years and could be undone by a future administration. Many of the top foreign policy advisers to Joseph R. Biden Jr., the Democratic presidential nominee, were officials in the Obama administration and are skeptical of weapons sales to the Gulf Arab nations because of the many civilians killed by the Saudi-led coalition in the Yemen war.
The Emirati arms deal has been pushed by Jared Kushner, the president’s son-in-law, who has been central to the diplomatic negotiations between Israel and the Emirates. Mr. Kushner’s efforts over three years to forge a peace agreement between the Israeli government and Palestinians have gone nowhere, and Palestinians have been angered by the Trump administration’s pro-Israel policies. Mr. Kushner has hoped to get the Gulf Arab leaders, including the Emirati crown prince, Mohammed bin Zayed, to push the Palestinians to support his proposals.
Another top White House official working on the arms deal is Maj. Gen. Miguel Correa, an Army officer who formerly served as the defense attaché in Abu Dhabi. General Correa is now a senior member of the National Security Council staff working on Middle East issues.
The circumstances around General Correa’s departure from Abu Dhabi are murky. Two American officials said he left his position after clashing with the embassy’s chargé d’affaires, Steven C. Bondy, who believed General Correa was having meetings with Emirati officials about arms sales, the war in Yemen and other sensitive topics without his knowledge or consent.
The Emiratis have pushed the Americans to sell them F-35s for at least six years, but Israeli officials have objected. The warplane is designed to have a very low radar signature, and can strike ground targets and engage in air-to-air combat to maintain control of the skies.
“The F-35 has been the single-biggest defense system objective the Emiratis have had for years,” said Barbara A. Leaf, a former U.S. ambassador to the Emirates.
But, she said, with Israel and the Emirates agreeing to full diplomatic relations, the Emiratis now expect Israel to relinquish some of its traditional technological edge. “If you’re making the big move — normalization of relations — you’re in a different position as an Arab state,” Ms. Leaf said.
The United Arab Emirates is among the few traditional allies of the United States that have enjoyed good relations with the Trump administration, and it has found common cause with the White House in taking a hawkish position toward Iran. In an interview Wednesday with The Jerusalem Post, David M. Friedman, the American ambassador to Israel, said that improving the Emirates’ arsenal would be beneficial for the nations allied against Iran.
“Ultimately, under the right circumstances, both the U.S. and Israel would benefit greatly from having a strong ally situated across the Strait of Hormuz from Iran,” he said.
Mr. Friedman insisted that any decision on weapons sales would be made keeping in mind that the United States is committed to Israel having military supremacy in the region.
Since the 1973 Arab-Israeli War, American policy has been to ensure that Israel maintains what is called a “qualitative military edge” over its Arab neighbors. The monthslong interagency process for ensuring proposed weapons sales meet that requirement is highly classified and involves review by a handful of U.S. officials. The congressional definition says the United States must ensure that Israel can defeat “any credible conventional military threat” while sustaining “minimal damage and casualties.”
Andrew Miller, a former State Department and National Security Council official now at the Project on Middle East Democracy in Washington, said that “the mere fact that U.A.E. is making peace with Israel does not exempt the U.S.” from requirements to maintain Israel’s military superiority.
“Based on my assessment, there’s legitimate concern that the sale of F-35s to U.A.E. could compromise Israel’s qualitative military edge,” he said, adding that the jet can slip through advanced air defense systems.
If the sales process moves forward, the State Department would notify Congress. Concerned lawmakers could try to freeze the sale or kill it.
Mr. Trump, Mr. Kushner and other White House aides have strongly advocated arms sales to Gulf Arab nations, which has led to one of the biggest rifts between the administration and Congress.
Since 2017, lawmakers have put holds on proposed arms packages to Saudi Arabia and the Emirates, citing the thousands of civilians killed by a Saudi-led coalition in the Yemen war. Many of the civilians died from precision-guided bombs made by Raytheon. In a widely criticized move in 2019, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo issued a declaration of an “emergency” over Iranian activities in the region to bypass Congress in pushing through $8.1 billion of weapons to the two nations.
Administration officials are discussing whether to end an important part of the congressional notification process in future sales.
In Yemen, the Emirati military, which is far better trained than that of Saudi Arabia, has withdrawn most of its forces. But the Emirates has deployed warplanes in the Libyan war, where many civilians have been killed.
White House officials aim to shepherd a peace agreement between Israel and other Arab nations that is similar to the one reached last week. But there are great obstacles with Saudi Arabia, and Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and other officials there would need more robust incentives, say diplomats and experts on the region. Sales of significant arms packages to the Emirates could help prod the Saudis in that direction, they say, since Riyadh also wants to buy advanced American weapons.
The proposed sale of armed drones to the Emirates would almost certainly create anxieties among Israeli officials and U.S. lawmakers. The Emiratis are trying to buy Predator drones, made by General Atomics. Lawmakers have put a hold on one package. But there is a more powerful drone model, the Reaper, that the Emiratis also seek to buy, and that is part of the White House’s proposed arms sale deal with the F-35s, made by Lockheed Martin.
Until now, the U.S. government had held back from selling that category of armed drone to other nations because of a ban in the Missile Technology Control Regime, a decades-old arms control pact among 35 nations. But on July 24, the Trump administration announced it would issue sales licenses for those drones and bypass the relevant parts of the arms control agreement. Democratic lawmakers and some arms control experts said the move was reckless and could lead to proliferation of the lethal drone technology.
On Tuesday, an Israeli newspaper, Yediot Ahronot, reported that the Trump administration had secretly agreed to a sale of F-35s and drones to the Emirates as part of the Emirati peace agreement with Israel.
In response, Mr. Netanyahu’s office issued an unusually detailed statement listing government efforts over the summer to convey to Washington its opposition to the sale of F-35s to any country in the region. “The peace agreement with the United Arab Emirates does not include any reference to arms sales, and the U.S. has made it clear that it will always take strict care to maintain Israel’s qualitative edge,” the statement said.
But it did not explicitly deny the United States had decided to sell F-35s to the Emiratis outside the normalization agreement.
The weapons issue injected a sour note into Israeli celebrations over the diplomatic deal, compounded by statements by the Israeli defense and foreign ministers, Mr. Netanyahu’s coalition partners and political rivals, that they had been left in the dark.
Mr. Netanyahu’s office said the defense minister, Benny Gantz, a former chief of staff, had been told in late July of communications with American officials opposing the sale of F-35s.
But Mr. Gantz responded angrily to the reports of a secret arms deal, saying in a news conference on Tuesday that he had not been informed of the normalization agreement in advance and that “it is forbidden to take security risks.”
“The F-35 is the most advanced plane in the world,” he added. “It’s not good for Israel to have it going around in other places.”
Some Israeli analysts said citizens were wary of trusting Mr. Netanyahu on the issue because of revelations last year that the prime minister had secretly greenlighted the sale of German submarines to Egypt, reversing a yearslong policy opposing such a sale.
A senior Israeli air force officer said that a future Emirati government that becomes hostile to Israel could deploy F-35s against it. And the abilities of the jets could impair Israel’s ability to operate freely in the Persian Gulf — which Israel sees as a critical need because of the threat from Iran.

La relation entre Israël et les Émirats déjà entachée par les F-35
OLJ / Par Julie KEBBI, le 27 août 2020 à 00h00
Alors qu’Abou Dhabi a les chasseurs américains en ligne de mire, l’État hébreu s’oppose fermement à toute possible vente.
Dix jours à peine après l’annonce surprise de la normalisation de la relation entre les Émirats arabes unis (EAU) et Israël, la polémique fait tache. Selon le site d’information américain Axios, Abou Dhabi a annulé une réunion trilatérale avec Washington et l’État hébreu à la suite des propos du Premier ministre israélien, Benjamin Netanyahu, s’opposant à une possible vente d’avions de combat américains F-35 aux EAU. Prévue pour vendredi dernier à New York, la cérémonie officielle devait réunir publiquement les ambassadeurs aux Nations unies des trois pays concernés et être suivie de la publication d’un communiqué conjoint. Un retournement de situation qui intervient en outre au moment où le secrétaire d’État américain Mike Pompeo effectue une tournée dans la région en vue de promouvoir la normalisation des liens avec Israël auprès des pays arabes.
La controverse a débuté la semaine dernière quand le quotidien israélien Yediot Aharonot a fait état d’une clause secrète dans l’accord de normalisation, approuvée par Benjamin Netanyahu et donnant le feu vert à Washington pour procéder à la vente de F-35 et de drones, entre autres, à Abou Dhabi, suscitant une levée de boucliers du côté israélien. « L’accord de paix historique entre Israël et les EAU ne comprenait pas le consentement d’Israël à un accord d’armement quelconque entre les États-Unis et les EAU », a fustigé le Premier ministre de l’État hébreu dans un communiqué. Selon la loi américaine, les États-Unis doivent s’assurer que l’État hébreu conserve sa domination militaire sur le reste des États de la région dans le cadre de leurs ventes d’armes – un point essentiel, alors que Washington fournit à son allié une assistance dans ce domaine atteignant plusieurs milliards de dollars par an.
Ajoutant un peu plus d’huile sur le feu, le président américain Donald Trump a indiqué, lors d’une conférence de presse mercredi dernier, qu’une acquisition de F-35 par les EAU était « en train d’être passée en revue ». Confirmant la volonté d’Abou Dhabi d’acheter ces avions de combat, le ministre d’État émirati aux Affaires étrangères Anwar Gargash déclarait le lendemain, lors d’un entretien accordé au groupe de réflexion américain Atlantic Council, que « les EAU s’attendent à ce que (leurs) exigences soient acceptées et (…) qu’avec la signature de ce traité de paix dans les semaines ou les mois à venir… , aucun obstacle ne devrait plus être là ». « L’idée même d’un état de belligérance ou de guerre avec Israël n’existe plus », avait-il souligné, ajoutant qu’Abou Dhabi a les F-35 dans sa ligne de mire « depuis six ans ».
Produit par l’entreprise américaine Lockheed Martin, « le F-35 est un chasseur de dernière génération qui a la particularité d’être furtif et d’être doté de systèmes contre-mesures électroniques qui lui permettent de ne pas être détecté par les systèmes de défense antiaérienne », explique à L’Orient-Le Jour Michael Horowitz, spécialiste du Moyen-Orient à LeBeck International, un think tank basé à Bahreïn. Israël, qui dispose de 26 de ces avions de combat et en a commandé 50 supplémentaires, est le seul pays de la région à avoir accès à cette technologie de pointe – les États-Unis ayant interrompu la vente de F-35 à la Turquie l’an dernier face au refus d’Ankara de mettre un terme à l’achat de missiles antiaériens russes S-400. « Le prince héritier d’Abou Dhabi, Mohammad ben Zayed, veut que (l’achat de F-35) consolide la supériorité aérienne des EAU dans le Golfe », remarque Bruce Riedel, ex-responsable au sein de la CIA et chercheur à la Brookings Institution.
Ambitions régionales d’Abou Dhabi En mettant l’accent sur le matériel militaire et la maîtrise technique, les Émirats se sont déjà démarqués dans la région sur le plan de leur force aérienne, intervenant en Libye en 2011, en Syrie dans le cadre de la coalition contre l’État islamique ou encore au Yémen pour appuyer le gouvernement de Abd Rabbo Mansour Hadi contre les rebelles houthis, appuyés par l’Iran. Ajouter une technologie de pointe convoitée telle que les chasseurs F-35 à son arsenal permettrait également aux EAU de renforcer leur stratégie de dissuasion face à l’Iran, leur ennemi numéro un dans la région, et la Turquie, dont les velléités régionales empiètent sur celles des EAU. « Pour autant, je ne crois pas que son acquisition soit nécessairement une “priorité” pour les EAU, mais ce serait le signe d’une relation rapprochée avec Washington et cela servirait à “valider” les ambitions régionales d’Abou Dhabi », note Michael Horowitz.
Alors que le gendre et conseiller de Donald Trump, Jared Kushner, serait le plus fervent partisan de cette vente, l’armée émiratie aurait récemment reçu un briefing classifié par des officiels américains au sujet des F-35, a rapporté le quotidien américain The New York Times. Un dossier qui est toutefois loin de faire l’unanimité du côté du Congrès américain, qui tient le rôle-clé d’approuver ou non le processus des ventes d’armes mené préalablement par le département d’État. S’il va de l’avant, le plus gros de ce dossier épineux pourrait alors se jouer sur le terrain du Congrès, appuyé par les batailles entre les lobbies pro-israéliens, pro-émiratis et des fabricants d’armement et dont les conséquences pourraient être lourdes. « Si Israël cherche activement à bloquer la vente de F-35 à Abou Dhabi, l’accord de normalisation s’effondrera », estime Bruce Riedel, avant de préciser que « si les Émiratis obtiennent le F-35, les Saoudiens feront pression à leur tour, ce qui sera beaucoup plus problématique pour Israël ». « Il ne faut pas exagérer cette polémique ni la place du F-35 dans les négociations entre Israël, les EAU et les États-Unis », nuance pour sa part Michael Horowitz. Selon lui, « les Émiratis sont certainement outrés de l’attitude de Netanyahu qui a dit qu’il ferait tout pour empêcher l’acquisition du F-35 par Abou Dhabi. Mais je ne suis pas sûr que les EAU aient pensé que, même avec le soutien d’Israël, l’acquisition de F-35 soit réaliste ».

Il ne faut jamais oublier que les USA n'ont jamais rien fait pour freiner les nazis dans leur folie criminelle avant leur entrée dans le conflit et que c'est Adolf qui leur a déclaré la guerre le 11 décembre 1941 et pas l'inverse. Il y a eu des courageux comme le juriste Jacob Chaitkin* mais peu. Le sentiment de honte, voire plus ou voire pire, de ce pays face à l'extermination des populations juives européennes se cache bien profondément dans une réécriture savante et partisane de l'histoire où ils se la jouent Superman. Ils ont participé au jeux olympiques de Berlin en 1936 et personne n'a rien vu du régime hitlérien. L’ambassadeur a été rappelé en 1938 suite à la nuit de cristal mais cela cela n'a pas justifié qu'ils entrent en guerre contre l'Allemagne en septembre 1939 comme l'ont fait français et britanniques suite à l'invasion de la Pologne, de plus, une représentation américaine est restée à l’ambassade de Berlin jusqu'en décembre 1941 qui informait Washington de ce qui se passait. Ceci expliquant donc cela.
* 6 septembre 1934 : “Our stand is dictated to us by the remorseless logic of events. The Nazis have hit on the destruction of the Jewish people in Germany as the means of climbing to power. They have made the physical and economic destruction of German Jews the fundamental plank of their party platform and have practically enacted this point of their program into law.

Dans cette affaire ce sont les émirats qui perdront le plus, ils seront vus par tout les musulmans comme des traites et en cas de guerre avec l'iran, ils seront les premiers à être rayés de la carte. Bref ils se font des ennemis inutilement en essayant d'endosser un manteau de puissance régional qu'ils ne pourront jamais obtenir. Le pétrole et le gaz ne sont pas des énergies d'avenir, le gaz pourra servir plus longtemps que le pétrole en temps qu'énergie de transition mais l'avenir sera renouvelable et nucléaire. Ensuite ils n'ont pas la population nécessaire pour leur ambition. L'iran peut littéralement les annihilés en quelques salves de missiles. Si jamais ils continuent de nuire aux interets de la turquie en supportant les kurdes, leurs dignitaires seront la cible d'assassinat des services secrets turques et même leur émir ne sera pas épargnés, les services secrets turques sont très compétents. En somme ils jouent vraiment avec le feu.

Les Émirats (comme tout les pays du golf d'ailleurs ) sont des peuples d'assistés donc avec toutes les armes du monde ils seront incapables de mener des guerre.
les USA et Israël sont entrain de jouer avec eux pour leurs faire boire le calice jusqu'à la lie et enfin de compte leurs livrer un F35 bridé et qui coûte la peau du c**

Vaudrait mieux qu'ils restent tranquille et qu'ils se contente de leurs économies et puissance régional comme ils l'ont été jusqu'à présent, et qu ils restent stables avec les membres du CCG, avant de prendre des décisions au lendemain incertains. Du coup Ils se sont ridiculiser avec les USA dans cette "normalisation" dangereuse avec Israël.🤭 Ont voit un peu plus clair avec cette échec, Qui manipulé Qui...

Ahead of F-35 Buy UAE May Look to Sell Some of its F-16 Jets to Greece
As the United Arab Emirates (UAE) is expected to progress on its desire to buy F-35 jets, it could be looking to sell some of its F-16 jets, probably to Greece to which it dispatched four "Desert Falcons” for participation in exercises with the Greek Air Force (GAF).
The move could have political benefits for Abu Dhabi as it seeks to weigh in on the side of Greece in Turkey’s dispute with Athens over Eastern Mediterranean hydrocarbon prospecting.
While Abu Dhabi has given no indication so far that its F-16s are for sale, it may not need 80 of them if it gets to buy an estimated 12 F-35s from the US following its peace deal with Israel.
UAE’s F-16s are among the most advanced in the world. First received in 2004, its fleet of 80 F-16 jets feature a Northrop Grumman APG-80 AESA radar, conformal fuel tanks as standard, an integrated Northrop Grumman electronic warfare system and a MIL-STD 1773 databus. Called the Block 60, they are just a step behind the F-16 Block 70/72 Viper- the latest iteration of the venerable American fighter.
For Greece, the UAE F-16s would introduce them to the most modern F-16s short of the F-16 Viper and immediately help to a large extent, match its Air Force against that of Turkey’s.
Greece boasts a fleet of some 150 F-16 fighters. In December 2019, Greek Defense Minister Nikos Panagiotopoulos told the parliament that 84 of the GAF’s 150 F-16s would be upgraded to the advanced Viper class by 2027 costing $1.5 billion. The upgrades are only expected to arrive starting 2027 and until then it will be vulnerable to Turkey’s advanced fighter planes.
Though Greece has announced a decision to buy Dassault Rafale jets, these too would not arrive until 2026 that is, if it signs the contract with Dassault latest by 2021.
If Greece buys UAE’s F-16s, it would also help the US checkmate France which first sent aircraft for exercises and later entered into negotiations with Athens to sell Rafale jets.
The participation of the Emirati F-16s in GAF exercises was followed up with a visit by Lt. General Hamad Mohammed Thani Al Rumaithi, Chief of Staff of the UAE Armed Forces to Greece who inspected the site of joint military exercises in the Greek island of Crete on Monday.
Later, Al Rumaithi met separately with Nikos Panagiotopoulos, Minister for National Defence of Greece, and his Greek counterpart, General Konstantinos Floros. “The two meetings discussed ways to strengthen cooperation and joint action between the UAE and Greece, particularly in defence and military areas and accelerate military coordination and cross visits,” according to a UAE government release.
The sudden interest to intensify military cooperation between Greece and UAE hides more than it reveals. The UAE is trying to become a regional economic and military power as is evident from its participation in the Libyan conflict on the side of the Haftar militia where it is locked in battle with Turkey (which supports the GNA- the UN recognized Libyan government).

Trump Administration Wants To Sell UAE A Fleet Of 50 F-35s
The plan to transfer the stealth fighters to a second Middle East operator could still face plenty of obstacles.
President Donald Trump’s administration has informed Congress that it plans to sell the United Arab Emirates 50 F-35 stealth fighters. Backed by the U.S. State Department, the proposed deal still faces significant hurdles, largely stemming from concerns about how it might affect Israel’s so-called “qualitative military edge” in the Middle East. There has already been some pushback from legislators to this latest announcement and representatives of Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden’s campaign have also voiced hesitation over how they might handle the deal. Americans go to the polls next week to choose the next President of the United States.
New details of the plan to sell the Joint Strike Fighter to the United Arab Emirates (UAE) emerged today, with Global Defence Technology magazine’s Harry Lye being among the first to confirm them. If the deal goes through, the UAE would become only the second country in the region to receive the F-35, after Israel.
Talk of an F-35 sale to the UAE is not new, and The War Zone reported on it back in 2017, but the prospect of it happening was given a major boost by the normalization of relations between the UAE and Israel earlier this year. According to Defense News, the 20-aircraft deal could be worth $10.4 billion.
In August 2020, President Trump said of the UAE: “They have the money and they would like to order quite a few F-35s.” However, as we discussed at that time, the transfer of such high-end equipment to the UAE has already been met with serious opposition from both Israeli officials and now also the U.S. Congress.
“This technology would significantly change the military balance in the Gulf and affect Israel’s military edge,” Global Defence Technology’s Lye quoted the U.S. House Foreign Affairs Committee as saying in response to today’s news, reiterating these concerns. “The F-35 Joint Strike Fighter is a game-changing stealth platform boasting advanced strike capability and unique sensor technology. The export of this aircraft requires very careful consideration and Congress must analyze all of the ramifications. Rushing these sales is not in anyone’s interest.”
“Israel currently has exclusive access in the region to the F-35, which has guaranteed its military edge over the last several years,” said Democratic Congressman Eliot Engel, again quoted by Harry Lye. “As Congress reviews this sale, it must be clear that changes to the status quo will not put Israel’s military advantage at risk.”
The qualitative military edge (QME) mentioned by Congressman Engel is the key to whether the sale of the stealth fighters to the UAE will eventually be signed off. U.S. law ensures that Israel must retain a military advantage over its neighbors, although how the QME is preserved remains open to interpretation.
A day before the latest announcement, Anthony Blinken, a foreign policy adviser to Biden, also said that the Candidate’s camp had “concerns about what commitments may or may not have been made to the UAE with regard to the F-35.” Blinken reiterated that, under President Barack Obama’s administration, during which time Biden was Vice President, the F-35 had only been made available to Israel within the region, in order to preserve its QME.
“Reports that the [Trump] administration has committed to provide these planes to the UAE is something we would look at very, very carefully, and make sure that the QME is preserved and also very important that Congress play a role,” Blinken added.
While the plan may still face Congressional pressure, it seems that the Israeli position may have softened in recent weeks.
Ahead of the UAE F-35 announcement, Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu and Minister of Defense Benny Gantz issued a joint statement suggesting that Israel would not necessarily stand in the way of such a deal.
“The Prime Minister and the Defense Minister both agree that since the U.S. is upgrading Israel’s military capability and maintaining Israel’s qualitative military edge, Israel will not oppose the sale of these systems to the UAE,” the statement read.
This followed a visit by Ganz to Washington, during which he signed a deal with U.S. Secretary of Defense Mark Esper about U.S. willingness to preserve Israel’s QME for the next four years at least. The talks apparently included potential arms deals covering more fighter jets, likely F-35s and/or F-15 Eagles, as well as V-22 Osprey tiltrotor transports, which have long been on Israel’s shopping list
In recent weeks there have been other, seemingly bizarre reports concerning possible U.S. arms sales to Israel, perhaps as a means of ensuring its QME. These included talk of a sale of F-22 Raptor stealth fighter jets, although that is nearly impossible as the production line for that stealth jet has long since closed, and restarting it would be prohibitively expensive.
Some American lawmakers are also talking about proposing legislation that would allow Israel to buy the Massive Ordnance Penetrator (MOP) “bunker-buster.” However, the Israeli military has no suitable aircraft to carry this huge weapon.
The United States could potentially ally some of Israel’s concerns through various export control mechanisms, including special limits on the infrastructure surrounding the F-35, an option that The War Zone examined in this previous article.
The UAE Air Force and Air Defence is already well equipped with comparatively modern non-stealthy fighters, comprising 77 F-16E/F Block 60 Desert Falcons and 62 Dassault Mirage 2000-9s.
In the past, the UAE examined options for the purchase of around 60 new fighters, including the Dassault Rafale and Eurofighter Typhoon, while Russia offered the Sukhoi Su-35. No decision was made and, in the meantime, other air forces in the region — among them Bahrain, Oman, and Qatar — have all placed multi-billion-dollar orders for new fighters.
With Israel apparently increasingly willing to tolerate the sale of F-35s to the UAE the Trump administration and the U.S. State Department will now have to wait for the outcome of the presidential election to see what happens next. Should Trump win another term in office, it already looks like the proposed sale will face plenty of opposition from the U.S. Congress.
