Royal Saudi Navy CNO Visits Dahlgren
DAHLGREN, Va. -- Aegis Ballistic Missile Defense (ABMD), Center for Surface Combat Systems (CSCS) and Aegis Training and Readiness Center (ATRC) hosted the Royal Saudi Naval Forces Chief of Naval Operations (CNO) Oct. 12.
Vice Adm. Dakheel Allah Al-Wagdani visited the training commands on board Naval Support Activity South Potomac (NSASP) during a two-week visit to the United States dedicated to seeing how the U.S. Navy trains its personnel to deploy and maintain the Aegis combat system, as the Royal Saudi Navy considers upgrading its fleet.
"It was an honor to host Vice Adm. Al-Wagdani and his staff," said Capt. Bob Kerno, CSCS' commanding officer. "It was interesting to hear his perspectives on training and discuss the opportunities available to his officers and enlisted crews. The admiral has a wealth of experience in the United States and that experience will be very important to the U.S. Navy/Royal Saudi Naval Forces partnership as they lay the groundwork for an acquisition strategy for future ships."
يعني الوقداني راح للايجس bmd ومو لشركة لوكيهد اخوي فارس علما ان المدمره موجود فيها الايجيس من بدري اذا ما سبب الزيارة علما هذه قبل شهر ونصف
Defense News reports that Saudi Arabia may be shifting their focus away from a fully armed variant of the Littoral Combat Ship, carrying the smaller AN/SPY-1F radar and AEGIS combat system. In its place, they received May 2011 briefings concerning DDG-51 Arleigh Burke Class destroyers displacing about 3 times the tonnage, with ballistic missile defense capability upgrades. The cost trade-off would be about 4-6 modified LCS ships, in exchange for about 2 DDG-51 Flight IIA BMD ships.The unspoken threat here is, of course, Iran’s nuclear and ballistic missile programs. The unspoken concern is the security of a top-level defense technology, which is critical to defending the USA and its allies, in Saudi hands.
To date, the DDG-51 Arleigh Burke class has never been exported per se, though their AEGIS combat system and accompanying AN/SPY-1D radars have. Another possible option for Saudi Arabia would be used US Navy DDG-51 Flight I ships, upgraded with AEGIS BMD. That would allow the Saudis to field more ships for the same money, if an agreement was reached. The costs would lie in questions about hull life and length of service, and the Flight Is’ lack of a helicopter hangar. Helicopters have been shown to be essential defenses against speedboat threats, of the kind that Iran fields in the Persian/Arabian Gulf.
