What's new

Egypt has placed order for Su-35s

. .
US can be dealt with through KSA.
KSA will try for sure.. that is if Egypt and Pakistan have a will to sell /procure the F-16s first..

This is a good purchase for Egypt if they can get the top of the line radar. The radar that Russia on their SU-35s uses can easily detect the F-35 much farther than any plane that Egypt uses. You see my input is they bought this as a counter to the F-35s Israel is operating and rightly so. I honestly think this is fake news, if it can be confirmed by a reliable source I will trust it.
Stop worrying about a confrontation between Egypt and Turkey because it isn't going to happen. NATO will surely mediate the confrontation before it happens.
This is now confirmed by many Russian reliable media agencies:

Great news. I hope the Muslim world realises that internal bickering will not help it. The last two decades have shown what weakness can result in.

Egypt has a lot of potential and I hope they start working towards realising that.

I hope some day we will see Iraq back on its feet and moving fast towards prosperity. Same with Afghanistan and Syria and other Muslim countries.

The Egyptian military hopefully understands that just because they have peace now does not mean they will forever have peace. Weakness invites others to attack you.

It is easy to understand.. "If you want peace, prepare for war" ..and since Egypt has a lot of assets to protect, it saw a need to modernise its armed forces and that is what it is doing..

Egypt should sell some of its decapitated F-16s to Pakistan which lack AMRAAMS. Use that money to purchase unrestricted, fully capable aircraft like Su-35 or Rafale.
they use block 40 and 50 ...... we use blk-52+ and blk-15 MLU

1 MiKO Frigate
2 Mistrals LHD
4 Type 209 1400 MOD Submarines

Also during the last 5 years Egypt revealed Gas & Oil discoveries that worth more than 500 Billions USD....and still many discoveries to go in The medetrenian and the Red Sea.
Also Countries like Libya , Syria and Iraq which are an ordinary supporters of Egypt are now struggling.....
Also the control of Suez Canal....(the most important/Fastest/Safest) water way between Europe and Asia.

That’s why Egypt needs to protect itself against any possible threats.

Wtf is Egypt doing with all these different types of equipment?!

Modernizing it's fleet and not relying on a single or two suppliers that have a lot of say and restrict the potency of the equipment. This is a sound strategy because it's the only available one that gives the Egyptian military the power it needs to be strong and capable of defending its land. Simple.

Pakistan should establish close military relationship with egypt and send our pilots to egypt for proper training of their airforce as we have best pilots which have proved their capabilities multiple times in actual war so it will help Paf pilots to have experience of flying different types of jets and in any conflict our pilots will be able to protect Muslim world from any threat from israel and west

Good idea and we've been advocating such a thing for a while now.

Egypt should sell some of its decapitated F-16s to Pakistan which lack AMRAAMS. Use that money to purchase unrestricted, fully capable aircraft like Su-35 or Rafale.

Why would we do that? Despite our F-16's being neutered by the lack of AMRAAMs, they still serve a very important role and will remain in the EAF as long as their live sustainability is maintained.

they use block 40 and 50 ...... we use blk-52+ and blk-15 MLU

We use Block 32's (upgraded to block 40 standard), block 40 and Block 52, not 50. Turkey has the block 50.

We couldn't care less about Turkey. They don't matter to us especially after Erdogan pulled that idiotic stunt with Sisi and created bad blood between our two countries. So they can mind their own business and we'll certainly do the same since they would add nothing to our needs. They leader needs a few lessons on diplomacy before we even speak to him.



You know nothing, and it's quite obviously glaring.



Good idea and we've been advocating such a thing for a while now, except the hate from Pakistan towards Egypt needs to be solved first. We have no idea why Pakistan has a certain disdain towards Egypt stemming back quite a while. And it can't be denied, just look at all the anti-Egyptian comments here on this board (even just on this thread) from Pakistani members towards Egypt. We, like anyone else, once we see someone show disrespect and/or hatred or any form of negativity towards us, we have no problem severing any relationship and moving on. Although we have always been very peaceful people and attempt to fix such problems from the onset. But when these problems keep rearing their ugly heads and there is no improvement but only setbacks, then it's time to move on. So unfortunately I don't see anything of the sort happening anytime soon.

The only problem we see with the Egyptian strategy is having too many eggs and too many baskets, goodluck when the funds are tight.

In my opinion, Egypt needs more air defense assets. Russian systems are a good idea like the Pantsir, but South Africa or Western European countries could be looked at. Without being able to protect assets they are useless and will be destroyed quickly.

Define "relevant." Relevant to Pakistan? Relevant to the ME? Relevant in what specific areas, economy, military, diplomacy? What's an important relevance to Pakistan?
This is off topic but, do Jordan and Egypt have good defense relations? I know they can benefit from each other a whole lot but I see nothing happening between the two.
