MOSCOW, September 29. /ITAR-TASS/. Director-General of Russia’s Aircraft Corporation MiG Sergei Korotkov said on Monday Russia was planning to hold talks in Egypt in October on the country’s purchase of MiG-35 fighter jets.


“They [Egyptian representatives] visited our corporation. We hope that we will be invited at technical talks next month,” Korotkov told ITAR-TASS.

The Russian corporation is hopeful of the contract. However, Korotkov said this would be clear just after the talks.

In the beginning of the year the Egyptian defense minister confirmed reports saying Saudi Arabia and the UAE (United Arab Emirates) would provide funding to Egypt for purchasing Russian weaponry.

He said Russia would, particularly, supply 24 MiG-29 fighter jets to Egypt within the earlier reached agreements.

Mabrouk to the EAF!

Better for the Egypt to go for a well modified version of MiG-35 Dual Seat version with local production of about 100-150 aircrafts in 7 years time.

lol USA approves this 100%, they are trying to tell Russia that the found them good customers, so forget about Syria.... the west and their puppets are actually using this card, and Russia is loving it... :coffee:

anyways, congrats to Egypt, no matter what, Syria and Egypt have deep roots together, specifically in military..

No deep roots is not the right phrase here. Syria and Egypt are one nation and one Army.
 
. .
And what are you doing right now when your nation is under attack ?

Not taking sides, not funding armed groups, not saying who is the rightful ruler, not interfering, not involved in strikes, what we are doing is accepting Syrian refugees and giving them a relatively safer place to live......

Is that not enough from a nation that itself is in strife?

I was imagining that in the end you would have picked a side for a nation you hold so dear.Any side,i'm not picking here (ofcourse,no Al Nusra,ISIS).

they have never reach an agreement yet there is no mig-29m to Egypt until they sign the agreement. The Egyptian still thinking about which is which.

Deliveries of Russian weapons systems have already happened: Egypt Buys TOR BUK M2 Already in Service

We tried that in Yemen, it didn't particularity work out. There is no Syria without people who support the regime or the rebels, the sooner that is recognised the sooner bloodshed will stop, supporting one side will only exacerbate the conflict.

Did you understand what he said?

He said Russia would..............Reached agreements.

Have you reached that agreement yet? if yes proof it.

It appears you didn't understand. The agreement to supply Egypt with Mig-29s has already been reached (as in the past tense). He did not say that Russia and Egypt were yet to reach an agreement.

Either way:

Russia, Egypt Seal Preliminary Arms Deal Worth $3.5 Billion

I wish all good things to Egypt don't get me wrong.

But seriously I think Egypt going with the Mig-35 they don't want any of the 29ish because they don't have latest techs.

I think The Sisi signed some deals for the AD and waited for the AC for more study to decide if they go with the 29 or the 35.

don't forget the 35 more expensive.

they want more for the money they got from the gulf.

The MiG-35 is a development of the MiG-29M apart from some minor structural differences and an AESA radar they are virtually the same aircraft. So the procurement of the MiG-29M does make sense, retire the MiG-21/F-7 quickly and then when the MiG-35 is ready for export procure it and upgrade the MiG-29Ms with the AESA radar, the MiG-35s production line is about a year or two off being active.
