Israel is to get an increase from $2.4 billion per year to $3 billion per year, totalling $30 billion over the next 10 years. The increase is partly to enable Israel to keep the qualitative edge in weapons that the US is committed to providing. Egypt will have its $1.3 billion per year aid continued for another 10 years for a total of $13 billiion.
Arms sales will be made to Saudi Arabia and other Gulf states. These could amount to deals worth $30 billion and will include the latest smart weapons for the Saudis as well as ships for the Saudi navy.
