>The Netherlands NEVER sold weapons to Lybia.
AIFV series armored vehicles (which are considered obsolete) have been sold to Egypt and Bahrein but no weapons were sold to Lybia. Lybia has mostly Russian weapons (T-72, T-55 series, several MiG types, Sukhois, Koni frigates etc.). and some Chinese.
The only major western arms supplier is France.
Italy sold some helicopters.
NL also never sold weapons to Yemen.
Most western equipment sold to Arab nations is obsolete. With exception of Egypt which did receive some modern equipment.
>@Sniper: see table I've added above. Looks like mil. equipment to me. Would we sell something like that to, let's say, the Taliban? Or Bin Laden?
