Members

	Abul Abbas: The commander of the Arabian army. He is armed with a sword; though he doesn't use it to attack, merely using it to signal his troops. Serves as a background character during the boss fight with either The Keesi or the Iron Nokana Mk II. He'll surrender once his commanding vehicle is destroyed. In Metal Slug Defense and Metal Slug Attack, he attacks by lunging his sword and brings an M34 3-Ton Truck full of Arabians as support.
	Elite Arabian Soldier: An elite soldier from the Arabian army exclusive to Metal Slug Defense and Metal Slug Attack, his sprite is just basically a repainted Abul Abbas' sprite. His main method of attacking is by swinging his Spawning Sword where a mirrored clone of himself appears and charges towards enemy lines.
	Shizuka: An assassin bodyguard employed by Abul Abbas with his connections to the East. She attacks with her kunai. Her subjugation variant employs a variety of weapons and projectiles.
	Aisha: An Arabian dancer who is an expert at swordplay. She attacks by slashing her sword and launching projectiles from her sword.

Infantry

Ground Troops

	Arabian Soldier: Fast and dexterous, these Arabians are armed with swords that are used for slashing and throwing at the player. They pull out spare swords from their mouth.
	Arabian Fighter: Soldiers armed with swords. They will charge at an enemy and slash at them when in range. Unlike the standard Arabian Soldier, the fighters take 2-3 hits to be killed.
	Elite Arabian Fighter: An ace and lone-wolf of the Arabian Fighters. His special attack has a longer travel and faster charging speed. He can also resurrect once. Appears in Metal Slug Attack.
	Golden Arabian Fighter: Long-lasting veterans who wear gold-colored iron armor that represents their bravery. They charge at rapid speeds, and their special attack creates a tornado around them. They can revive once at above their original HP. Appears in Metal Slug Attack.
	Flame-Throwing Man: Eccentric fire breathing masters. They attack by throwing fire torches Appears in Metal Slug: Awakening.

Mounted Troops

	Camel Rider: Arabian soldiers riding on camelback. They are armed with a sword that is used to deflect the player's bullets and a pistol that is used to fire at the player. The baskets of fruits also seem to double as "armor" for the camel rider. Instead of being killed, the rider falls on the ground and the camel gets startled and runs away. In Metal Slug Attack, they use the fruits as their special attack: the camel turns around and launches a wave of fruits dealing high damage.
	Elite Camel Rider: A green-vested and red-hatted Camel Rider. They're stronger versions of the original riders. Appears in Metal Slug Attack.
	Camel Rider Chief: The commander of the Calvary unit who only shows his true potential when under command from Abul Abbas. He wields a hand cannon and fruit coated with a special burning substance. He can also dodge attacks. Appears in Metal Slug Attack.
