In our time, the Saudis bough the DF-3 and DF-21 ballistic missiles from China, but that had not happened here, for obvious reasons.

A lot of Milspeak here: Bertha = Controlling AEW plane, Buster = Go to maximum speed, Indians = surface task force, Grandslam = all targets killed. Over.

Pronounced Nah-ear-yah.

BUFF = Big Ugly Fat Fellow, or the venerable B-52 Bomber.

The US adventures in Afghanistan and Iraq are a perfect example.
