As for the batch of ZT-80 Main Battle Tanks that Saudi Arabia privately sold to Iraq, most were destroyed before the end of the Boi War, and the remaining ones were returned to Saudi Arabia after the war. Due to poor condition, mainly from lack of maintenance, these tanks were later all sent to Bakistan as aid equipment. Some of them are still in service with the Bakistan Army, and their condition remains quite good.
From this, we can see why Saudi Arabia insists on a "balance" policy.
Fundamentally, Saudi Arabia's "balance" policy is actually about buying security with money, specifically by purchasing arms to appease the three superpowers.
Of course, this situation had already ended after the end of the Iran-Iraq War.
