Saudi Arabia didn’t even wait for U.S. President Donald Trump to land before it set out to impress him in a sky-high way. As Trump flew in to Riyadh on Tuesday, Air Force One got a ceremonial escort from six Royal Saudi Air Force F-15s as it approached the kingdom’s capital — an exceptionally rare sight. Margo Martin, a White House official, posted video of the escort online, declaring, “Saudi F-15’s providing honorary escort for Air Force One!” The Royal Saudi Air Force has the world’s largest fleet of F-15s after the U.S. Air Force.
