Apparently, the Saudi's are helping the Yemeni's battle insurgents there, in a proxy war with Iran:

Perhaps they should talk to the Israelis to see how they use intel to intercept arms shipments.

Some good fodder there for scenarios using the striking looking Saudi F-15 and Tornado camo. schemes, as well as for gaming insurgent actions on the ground.

You can also run some piracy/anti-smuggling ops at sea as well, trying to interdict arms shipments to the region, from Iran, or Somalia.

Except I doubt the Saudi military is any more motivated than in 93-94 when I worked there – at least according to the ex-military contractors I worked with. If they got into anything serious, they'd need US or Mercenary (I mean Contractor) help.
