Receive is an interesting word. Since the U.S. gives Israel the money to buy them.
I wonder if this somehow is considered a good thing for our trade deficit?

i'm not sure what you mean. the US airforce alone is buying 1800 of them. they're about $40 million each.

Maybe, but unlikely. Arabs love U.S toys.
They think Russian equipment sucks

Arabs in reality love European toys just as much, look at countries like the UAE and Saudi Arabia, but many Arab governments wouldn't dare to say no to all US offers they have to buy the stuff or else.
A person would be dearly mistaken to assume the Russian toys can't rise to the challenge, the Su-35 and the Su-47 are looking very deadly to me.

The Su-35 hasn't been produced in numbers and not a single one has been sold outside of Russia. There is only one prototype Su-47 which is not slated for production at this time.
Also, neither is a stealth aircraft. Even an F-35 guided by an AWACS could take them out without the enemy ever figuring out where the hell the F-35 was.
