Ok question what do we know about the Saudi Army and its defense structure i mean facts?
And is this army ready and powerful enough to meet Iran at any location and scenario, both in offensive and defensive?
As iam reading throughout the forum iam starting to get the idea that the Saudies are being pictured as toy-soldiers with fancy stuff.
Wich i find very strange because online sources state that the saudies where ranked 6 in the world when it comes to military spendings based upon 2005 calculations.
And personally i find it very hard to believe that this money is only being spend at fancy toy's without proper education, training, maintenance and support .
And according to other sources they are ranked 5 at 2010/2011 just above uk and france.

So imo the saudies might lack training and skills in the past but then again there was not much need for it as the basic's where enough.
However today the climate has changed drastically wich will obvious being noticed by the saudies wich will result in training and upgrades to improve readiness and mobility as well as effectiveness.
Also the saudies have the advantage that they are in the defending role so they actually do not need to defeat the Iranians by invading iran just stop them from taking saudi ground.
correct me if iam wrong.
