Netanyahu says Rubio assured him Saudi Arabia will not receive F-35s on par with Israel

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu claims he was assured by the top U.S. diplomat that Saudi Arabia will not receive F-35 fighter jets on par with Israel's. This statement directly contradicts President Donald Trump, who said both nations should be treated as equal partners and receive "top of the line" aircraft. The dispute highlights the long-standing U.S. commitment to preserving Israel's "Qualitative Military Edge" in the region. Trump even acknowledged an Israeli push to sell the kingdom jets of a "reduced calibre" but stated he would disregard it.
