Nov 18 (Reuters) – President Donald Trump said on Tuesday the U.S. would sell F-35 stealth fighter jets to Saudi Arabia in a similar arrangement it has with Israel.

“As far as I’m concerned, I think they are both at a level where they should get top of the line (F-35s),” Trump said, referring to Saudi and Israel as great allies.
