Saudi Arabia graciously accepts the United States' offer of assistance in this venture. Truly, ISIS has much to fear in the near future.

We thank Saudi Arabia for allowing the US Air Force onto the program. However, a weapon with this much power must have safeguards. We must cooperate on a deployment system so that they aren't used excessively or unnecessarily.

Of course. This was taken into account with the weapon's design: only ten uses before it is useless and no way to reload the weapon. Should all ten rods be used, another nearly half billion dollar mission as well as the time required to construct a new one before the weapon could be used another time.

Saudi Arabia would not be against a launch mechanism that required multiple countries all to agree on a target and to fire for the weapon to be used, however. And Saudi Arabia is open to further suggestions to improve the security of the weapon as well as improve the way it is handled.
