The UK has a long-standing strategic relationship with the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, which is why we signed a Statement of Intent on the 1st March 2023, launching a Partnering Feasibility Study to define the future of our historic Combat Air partnership. All three GCAP nations have highlighted our openness to working with other nations through this programme, helping to deliver their future military capabilities.
