US plans sale of F-35 fighter jets to UAE in $23B arms deal
Read full article: US plans sale of F-35 fighter jets to UAE in $23B arms dealSecretary of State Mike Pompeo said he had authorized the sale in keeping with the administrationโs Middle East peace efforts. The notification to lawmakers follows the signing of the Abraham Accords between Israel, Bahrain and the UAE, under which the Arab states have agreed to normalize relations with Israel. Israeli officials have previously expressed some concern about an F-35 sale because it could affect the balance of military power in the region. The sale, worth up to $23.37 billion, includes 50 F-35s, 18 advanced armed drone systems and a package of air-to-air and air-to-ground munitions. At the time Israeli officials denied they had agreed to the sale but later dropped public objections to it.
