Haig hints Saudi concessions on AWACS sale to protect Israel
Secretary of State Haig signaled Saudi Arabia may offer concessions to U S interests as the United States plans the sale of five AWACS flying command posts plus missiles and fuel tanks for 62 F 15 fighters. He urged Congress to wait for the Saudi package before judging the deal, insisting Israel’s qualitative edge will be preserved. He noted the deal could be delayed until mid summer to avoid Israel’s June 30 elections.
