Hi... You are watching in-depth with me ILA. Recently, Saudi Arabia has asked the UK, Japan and Italy to be made a full partner in their joint effort to build the next generation of fighter jets, in a move backed by the British government. Companies from the UK, Japan and Italy are working together to build a new fighter jet and other systems such as drones under the Global Combat Air Programme, also known as Tempest. The programme aims to deliver the first planes by 2035. Saudi Arabia has had its eye on joining Tempest for some time. It signed a memorandum of understanding with the UK in March saying that the countries would carry out a "partnering feasibility study" to look at a future combat air partnership and closer industrial collaboration.
