Saudi Arabia has asked Dassault Aviation to send it a cost-determined proposal for the acquisition of 54 fighter jets by November 10, according to the French website La Tribune.
If this order for Dassault Aviation is realized, it will have significantly expanded Rafale sales in the Middle East region, as it has already delivered to Egypt 54 aircraft, to Qatar 36, while the United Arab Emirates ordered another 80 in December 2021.
