At least 2 billion USD.What os price tag .
They don't need the manpower. They have the strongest air force, navy, and best land equipment among the Arab states. The U.S. wants them to lead it and so do most of the allies of the Arab states including the Europeans.
You sound like it's anything but an Arabic initiative.Trust me, Trump wants the Saudis to lead the group. And what he says goes.
What does foreign office has to say about the Egyptian su's
With this trend you are going to say the same if a war occurs between Egypt and Israel that IAF had 5th Gen F-35 and EAF had 4.5 Gen so Egypt lagged behind.
Mig-29 and Su-35 have identical avionics and weapons package so logistics won't be a problem for at least these two planes. That said, I think it would have been better to either buy 50 Mig-35s or 30 Su-35s rather than a mixture of both.

You going to be more active on the Arab defense forum or is this a one time thing? I say this because you have 22 posts in 4 years.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 time to compensate for all the Israeli losses. Also, the direct intervention of SR-71 blackbirds stealth planes in the war. It's obvious for everyone that each president who comes to US presidency have to confirm that he will guarantee the Israeli superiority in the entire region in advance. Have you ever seen any country in the world that operates F-16s, F-15s & F-35s together with their best versions and in large numbers? .. We know well that in case of war against Israel, we will be lagged behind by means of equipment as usual and specially the air force capabilities (even any other country will be lagged behind against Israel in this aspect), but as you said it is not only the equipment that finishes any war despite being a very important factor. The US refused to give Egypt the F-15s before because of an Israeli request . That's why also we are trying to narrow the gap and diversify the sources of our weapons because we don't trust the US even against any other enemy.
Each one of them has a job to do. Egypt was operating the Russian Mig-21, the Chinese F-7, the American F-4 phantoms, the American F-16s, the French Alpha-jet, the French Mirage 5 and the French Mirage 2000 all together without any logistical problems. Only now some jets replaced older ones from the same origin.

We purchased some from Jordan with the US approval. More are in the pipeline.
I quoted you by accident I was talking to @Abdelrahman
You don't want us to operate any more f16?Assuming you can get approval.
Pakistan and the US are not exactly on good terms.
Its not a matter of want, its a matter of possibility. The U.S. has to sign off the deal for you to get the F-16s and knowing Pakistan's current relationship with the U.S. it is very unlikely you will ever get them even if Jordan wants to give you them. The deal could have been signed during the Obama era and now in the Trump era the deal is unlikely to amount to anything.You don't want us to operate any more f16?
