UAE

they look like /k/ roleplayers who are probably just as shit as them and depend on other countries tech/training

Less shit than Saudia Arabia, but not by much.

Hey man they got Ex-commander of SASR in charge of their special forces

> Arab oil state army
Fancy toys, no clue how to use them, NCO/officer corps devoid of initiative,

Worked with UAE. They are smelly arab garbage. All their Senior NCOs and Officers receiver their rank based on social status. They can't trust their enlisted corps to maintenance their planes so they hire Africans. Their bases are littered with shanty towns of indentured servants. Some of them can't even read their own language.

Their special forces and air force did some good work alongside the Yemeni army, ran some successful ops against the Houthis

Jim Mattis calls them the Sparta of the Gulf and considers them to be on the same level as Israel, they cannot be as incompetent as Saudi Arabia. They cannot. They cannot!

Non-Arab mercenaries in background are only competent part of their military.

Mattis is now in political office, his job includes saying bullshit he doesn't believe in for diplomatic reasons.
