I agree. They have never sent more than token forces to any of the Arab-Israeli conflicts. During Gulf War I the Saudi military hightailed away from one of their border towns following a rather insignificant Iraqi incursion. In '79 it took practically their whole military to eject a Madhist insurrectionary force of about 1,000 from the Grand Mosque and the Kaaba. This is nothing more than Beduoin bluster.
The entire SA military and security forces purely exists to prop up the monarchy. They cannot project any outside military force.

The Saudis are well armed, particularly their air assets. Easily the technological equal of Isral as delivered by their allies. They'll need Egypt on the ground. Well trained pilots too, by the seller.
