WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump said Monday he will sell F-35 fighter jets to Saudi Arabia despite some concern within the administration that such a sale could lead to China gaining access to the U.S. technology behind the advanced weapon system.

The announcement came on the eve of Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman’s highly anticipated Washington visit, his first to the United States in more than seven years.

“I will say that that we will be doing that,” Trump said when asked if he would sell the jets to Saudi Arabia. “We’ll be selling F-35s.”

The sale of the fighter jets is one of several major deals between the two countries expected to be announced during the visit.

Alternatively, whatever he supports undermines our health or the health of our scientific community.

2. Saudi Air Force doesn't have a very good rep

Nor does their army or navy. Lots of high priced equipment but they lack the capacity to effectively use it.
