NYN | Reports and Analyses
Hebrew media outlets revealed on Sunday secret documents and photographs documenting massive military deals concluded by Israeli military industries companies with both the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the State of Qatar. This development highlights the scale of the unannounced security and military cooperation between the two sides.
Missile Defense Systems and Fighter Jet Components
According to the leaks, Elbit Systems and Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI) sold advanced missile defense systems and high-precision technological components designed for fighter jets, with an estimated value of hundreds of millions of shekels.
Technical documents and leaked images from inside Israeli military manufacturing facilities showed that the supply operations were carried out through complex intelligence and logistical channels. The objective was to keep these deals out of the spotlight and avoid provoking political and media backlash.
Military Cooperation Beyond Political Understandings
Hebrew reports indicate that these deals represent a qualitative shift in the nature of relations between Israel and certain Gulf states. Cooperation is no longer limited to diplomatic communication channels or limited security coordination; rather, it has moved to the level of direct military partnership and collaboration in the fields of advanced defense technology.
Building a Joint Defense System
These leaks come amid growing indicators of escalating security and military coordination between Israel and several Gulf capitals under international sponsorship. This coordination aims to establish a joint defense system and localize certain Israeli military technologies in the Gulf region to confront rapidly shifting geopolitical challenges.
Observers believe that the disclosure of these secret deals opens the door to widespread questions regarding the nature of new regional alliances, and the extent of their impact on the balance of security and stability in the Middle East.
