Egypt has some trust issues with western countries at time of war. Their politics will not always favor the Egyptian side and in this case your neck will be under their knees if you have only one nation to depend on and you need to resupply your arms. For this reason, Egypt followed the...

Egypt requested F-35 from the Americans. Trump agreed, but the congress refused to keep the Israeli superiority in the region. They only can give it to nations that ever never can pose a threat to Israel. Egypt knew the answer before making the request, but it was a good chance and reason to...

Great news if true. Means that the Egyptian general intelligence is doing its work very well, and this may explain the Egyptian refusal to pursue with the negotiations as requested by the Ethiopians as it was only a way to waste more time. The first step was raising the issue to the security...

The Egyptian air force is so powerful and diversified for a middle eastern and Arab country with no oil resources or foreign military bases on its soil that allows the westerns to give everything with no worries, excluding Israel (the American baby). If you speak about an air force that includes...

Rafale, Mig 35, Mirage 2000, Sukhoi 35 and Eurofighter Typhoons to come are toothless? :sarcastic: And if you consider the 4th largest fleet of F-16s in the world as toothless just because the lack of Amraams, then remember that policy can change at anytime and Amraams can be provided so...

Egyptian Migs from Kader 2020 footage Egyptian Migs refuelling the Rafales Did not hear anything about it since long time. The last contract was for SU-35 and incomplete negotiations for F-35s due to the usual and expected congress refusal. Migs Ka-52 on Mistrals

As I heard and know, Egypt is going to get the Emiraiti Mirage 2000s to support and increase the number of its Mirage 2000 fleet (18-20 fighter jets). I heard also that PAF is getting the Mirage 5 Horus fleet (around 70 fighter jets- may be confused with the number of Egyptian F-4 Phantoms that...

Previous Egyptian negotiations with Spain was mainly about the Principe de Asturias.

Logic says it's better for Saudis to buy all these weapons for their own army instead of buying them for Egypt. They have long coasts on red sea and gulf that need to be protected by a stronger navy. And against Turkey? Egypt has no intentions against Turkey. Egypt is only protecting its giant...

Despite the fact that the Egyptian army reserves and economy are self-dependent and have nothing to do with the country's economic situation, and despite the fact that a "broke" country has its foreign reserves increasing from 17B$ (35B$ before the revolution in 2011) to 45B$ in less than two...

Egypt vs Israel, US (and their vassal states :D) .. a decisive military and political victory in 1973. Attrition war? The tripartite aggression war? .. Heavy failure of the aggressors and downfall of the British empire: D You did not & don’t even dare to shot a single bullet at them that's...

The US military aid was cut in 2013 under Obama's administration. Thanks to them, we now have Rafales, two Mistrals, Fremm frigate, Six Gowind corvettes, Molniya P-32 missile boat, Migs, S300-VM, Kamov Ka-52, T-90 tanks, Meko A-200 frigates (6 frigates according to news), Four Type-209...

It’s a challenge, he can’t offer it since Netanyahu’s approval were given only for certain nations. But if it happens why not? A 5th gen. fighter jet will be a good addition to the current fleets. This has nothing to do with the SU-35 deal as Egypt should not harm its military relations with the...

If Trump can offer F-35 as an alternative, we can hear his yells, but this will be after completing the SU-35 deal. We can consider his fears about his Israeli babies in future contracts, after the SU-35s.

Very funny to be said from a Turkish citizen. The first Islamic nation to admit the presence of Israel in 1949, only one year after its establishment. The nation of Incerlik military base from which the American military air bridge to Israel (Nickel-Grass Operation) to save its entity was...

I prefer the FREMM, but 6 pieces of Meko 200 are more useful for the Northern and Southern navies to join the two mistrals.

Not true. The Arabs took back every penny they gave as a loan in 2013 in addition to its bank interest. The Egyptian foreign reserves increased from 17 B$ after the revolution to 45 B$ right now. Not to mention that the Egyptian army has some sort of a self-dependent economy that has nothing to...

ًWho knows what happens tomorrow? :) I'm an old member here who visits and reads in the forum from time to time (sometimes anonymously), but I didn't post too much. To be honest, I'm mainly concerned with the Egyptian affairs in first place then those of other Muslim/Arab countries and...

Of course. We knew well that fighting the Israelis means fighting the Americans. You have to search about the Nickel grass operation during our last Ramadan war with the Israelis and the military bridges conducted from the US and its military bases specially in Turkey (Incirlik base) by this...

We have no problem to benefit from any top-notch technology. We only care about our strength not our prestige and only try to get the best as we can. Your officials should take the advantage of what happened recently with India to make a global marketing strategy for the JF-17.
