ابرز ما جاء في التقرير
Saudi Arabia quickly came to appreciate the benefits of building a strategic rocket force. Drawing from Arabic sources, Cigar writes, “The Saudis have continued to view SSMs [surface-to-surface missiles] as an effective and cost-effective weapon system, with one senior officer highlighting SSMs’ speed, range, accuracy, the difficulty of defending against them, their relative lower cost compared to airpower, and ‘the ability to carry warheads with immense destructive power and great lethality, especially nuclear and chemical ones.’”
the Saudis have built up a formidable infrastructure to support their missile program, including multiple bases as well as support and maintenance facilities.
السعودية بنت بنية تحتية هائلة لدعم برنامج الصواريخ، بما في ذلك قواعد متعددة فضلا عن مرافق الدعم والصيانة.
With some of its arsenal aging, Cigar also traces reports that Saudi Arabia might have sought to finance Egyptian missile purchases from Russia with the intent of acquiring those missiles themselves, perhaps even for a strike against Iran. However, as Cigar notes, Saudi efforts to upgrade its missile arsenal also suggest a Plan B in case Iran does go nuclear: Not a strike against Iran, but rather quickly matching or exceeding Iran’s capabilities, perhaps by purchasing nuclear technology, while having the same or even better means to deliver nuclear warheads.
يتتبع سيقار ايضا تقارير تفيد بأن المملكة العربية السعودية قد سعت إلى تمويل شراء الصواريخ المصرية من روسيا بقصد الحصول على هذه الصواريخ أنفسهم، وربما حتى لضربة ضد إيران.
