I understand this is support for an upcoming deployment of Saudi F-15s here. (Thanks to Starman for the info on this).

A330 2401 visited today as RSF9876. Both inbound and outbound flights were above level 300, so it was not dragging any fighters AFAIK.

Looks like the exercise/deployment is called Falcon Eye 1 and consists of 6 F-15C/D not F-15SA, although it might be a mix in the end.
