You must not read the papers. In the last 50 wars fought in that region, the only officers that Arab troops have ever followed consistently and succesfully, have been British.
In basically every single other case, the average soldier looks for the first opportunity to surrender. So no, its not really the Saudi Army we should be worried about. OTOH, its not really the Saudi Army we should be depending on.
