A West German company will deliver 60 Wildcat anti-aircraft systems to Saudi Arabia in March with permission from the Bonn government, the magazine Der Spiegel reported. The anti-aircraft system is manufactured by Krauss-Maffei, and each weapon includes two 30-millimeter guns that can be mounted on armored vehicles. The magazine said the value of the Wildcat deal is between $3.2 million and $4.8 million. The report of the Saudi sale came as Israeli Prime Minister Shimon Peres arrived in Bonn for three days of talks.
