The Saudis are currently operating Chinese attack drones, but it seems they are also seeking US attack drones, according to Tactical Report.
"There is talk about serious negotiations being held between the Saudi Defense Ministry and the Pentagon about the possibility of the Kingdom acquiring the MQ-1 Predator from General Atomics," the report says.
Since the MQ-1 was retired from USAF service in March 2018, it is possible that the parties would discuss the acquisition of the MQ-9 Reaper.
