🇸🇦🇺🇸NEW for @AlMonitor

What happens when a US company helps Saudi Arabia build a drone inspired by Iran's Shahed-136?

The answer says a lot about the future of warfare. From #Russia's Geran campaign in #Ukraine to America's #LUCAS program and #Turkey's new AI-enabled loitering munitions, the appeal of low-cost mass strike systems is growing rapidly.

Saudi Arabia's new #SKYWASP project may be the latest sign that the "Shahed model" has gone global.

The story isn't just about a drone. It's about how the Iran war accelerated Gulf interest in affordable long-range strike systems, defense localization and the global spread of the "Shahed logic"—from #Iran and #Russia to the #US and #Turkey.

"A joint venture between a US defense startup and a Saudi firm is building a factory near Riyadh to manufacture combat drones modeled on Iran’s Shahed system, which has been used to pummel Gulf countries over the past few months."
