I don't want to raise alarm but I don't think that the US public is aware of this: "In line with the approval of Crown Prince Sultan bin Abdulaziz, the Deputy Premier, Minister of Defense and Aviation and Inspector General, the participation of the Royal Saudi Air force in the exercise of the Red Flag-3, 2008, due to take place at Niles base in the United States, the Royal Saudi Air Force Planes which will participate in the Exercise arrived on Friday at the Base. The planes were received by commander of the group of the Royal Saudi Air Force for the mission of the Red Flag-3, 2008, Colonel Ahmad Assiri and other officers. In a statement to SPA, AL-Assiri said the training of the planes which will participate in the exercise began nine Months ago. Highlighting the efficiency and capability of the Saudi pilots, al-Assiri said this participations is the third participation for the Royal Saudi Air Force in the exercises of the Red Flag." Pilots were interviewed by a a correspondent from Al-Arabiyya: the team is led by a...royal prince who showed his brilliance by using a cellphone on camera. Do you know how difficult it is operate a cellphone in 2008?
