There is no free military support. It is all weapons that are paid for, and no single US soldier ever protected any Gulf country. In fact, when houthis that the west support, threw missiles at Saudi Arabia, the United States said it will withdraw its single patriot anti missile battery from Saudi Arabia and also block further sales of anti air attacks weapons. That's one of the many reasons why Saudis are industrializing very quickly right now and focusing on self manufacturing of their own weapons at the moment. So in reality, there were no security guarantees and it was just words for the most part.
