Reuters: The U.S. State Department has approved the potential sale of more than $1.4 billion worth of military training and equipment for Saudi Arabia, the Pentagon said on Monday, part of a $110 billion arms deal U.S. President Donald Trump sealed with the kingdom in May.
The proposed sales include a radar system made by Lockheed Martin Corp (LMT.N) as well as a training program for the Royal Saudi Air Force and other Saudi forces inside and outside of Saudi Arabia, the Pentagon said in two separate notices on its website.
Lockheed is the prime contractor for 26 AN/TPQ-53(V) Radar Systems that were approved for potential sale.
