They are rumoured to be in line for a whole bunch of pointy planes as well, something like 40 F-15s and 160 F-16s if the report I read was correct, though naturally these will be paid for from oil revenues, rather than being "gifts".

Dunno what the timeframe on those is. I would imagine the "current and ongoing situation" will be a determining factor.
