#1 Saudi Arabia has a wonderful fleet for its air force to play with, not one of which would get off the ground were it not for hired kufr mechanics, or so I'm told. Mr. Wife spoke of his company's factory, staffed entirely by foreigners except for the figurehead Saudi department heads, who wandered in periodically for a coffee break and to sign off on things already decided. What odds the clever graduates of the Saudi king's co-ed university will be able to do the required frequent and persnickety maintenance of the nuclear cycle, let alone the even more persnickety maintenance of actual nuclear weapons?

#3 I suspect the warheads, like the Pakistani warheads, will be rotated back to East Asia for maintenance.

#4 Given all the Muslim countries around Saudi Arabia that are under threat or influence from pro-Nukulaar, pro-"Arab Spring" Iran + Radical Islam, HARD TO SEE HOW THE KSA CAN AVOID DOMINANCE, IFF NOT DIRECT TAKEOVER, BY THE ANTI-MONARCHY RADICALS???
