More than $5 billion in sales for "key Middle East partners"...

A sucker is born every minute. The Israelis thought the Patriot system sucked. It is no match for Iran's S-300 which should be upgraded to S-400. Iran is joining SCO and they did sell Russia 300 drones. The Iranians are Asians and won't tell anyone until the upgrade is complete. They might want to buy some of those Brahmos cruise missiles made by Russia and India for the export market. Mach 3, warhead 440 pounds, range - varies by sea 370 miles, land launch 430 miles.
Russia will be deploying a new cruise missile in 2023 with Mach 10 speed and will upgrade the Brahmos to Mach 7.
These weapons can be air launched. They could take out Saudi and Kuwait defenses so the Houthis could directly confront the Saudi military. No response would get through with S-400 to protect them.
