 Britain’s BAE Systems To Upgrade Saudi Tornado Jets: Report
By AGENCE FRANCE-PRESSE, LONDON

http://www.defensenews.com/story.php?F=2095874&C=europe
British defense company BAE Systems has won a major contract to upgrade Saudi Arabia’s aging Tornado fighter jets, weekly financial newspaper The Business said Sept. 10.
The deal, worth 2.5 billion pounds ($4.6 billion), comes three weeks after the sale of 72 Eurofighter Typhoon planes to Saudi Arabia in a contract worth 10 billion pounds.
”It is not appropriate for BAE Systems to make any comment on discussions between these two parties,” a spokeswoman for the firm told The Business.
However, an unnamed Saudi source told the newspaper: “This will add a lot to the Tornados.
”The old ones with the new technologies will become de facto new aircraft. They will be the new generation of Tornados with the inside configuration completely changed.
”It will be mostly done in the UK and then all the know-how will be passed on to the Saudis. And with such a cost, it makes sense.”
The Business said the Royal Saudi Airforce hopes to keep its 80-strong fleet of Tornados flying until 2020.

thread_title: Tail Inscription

message: I have asked that the warring editors bring their debate on aircraft inventory quantities here, instead of disrupting work on their article by all the constant reverting (and breaking of the 3RR rule (which can get you suspended). It is usual for sources to disagree on numbers of aircraft in service. Where there is major disagreement (as for the F-15s here, for instance), it is proper for disagreeing editors to go to the talk page, present their numbers and identify their sources. It is possible that examination of multiple independent sources will lead to a consensus.
I have looked at Jane's World Air Forces and its entry (last updated 2006-11-28) gives a total of 150 F-15s in service (57 F-15C, 25 F-15D, and 68 F-15S). The quantity of 195 that at least one editor has given is actually higher than the total number of F-15s that Saudi Arabia has acquired altogether (74/24 F-15C/D and 72 F-15S = 170 aircraft in all). I haven't looked at the other disagreements yet, but I would ask that those editors who have been edit-warring post their information and identify their sources here.

message: The current aircraft inventory is a mess, its hould be tabled with categorization for fighter-bombers, trainers, transports, helicopters, etc!
Considering the possibility of an aerial-refuelled long distance Tornado + F-15E retaliatory airstrike on Switzerland over the recent mosque ban, soon there will be a lot of interest in the saudi air force article! 91.82.138.189 (talk) 22:53, 30 November 2009 (UTC)

replies: text: Europe is not a country so a flag is not appropriate, many parts of Europe have nothing to do with the Eurofighter company, the origin normally indicated which country the aircraft originated from, all the RSAF aircraft are built at Warton in the UK.

message: I would kindly request you to add about  PSATRI (Prince Sultan Advanced Technology Research Institute | معهد الأمير سلطان لأبحاث التقنيات المتقدمة) in "See also section" of your article.
I would also like to inform you that PSATRI is a defense research and development center established by King Saud University and Royal Saudi Air Force. This interlink from the founder's article to PSATRI's article and vice-versa will certainly prove beneficial for both of us.
Thank you.
