didnt know about Egyptian Perry upgrade, who upgraded? what is the scope? when?
thx.
* With observers from the Pakistani, Libyan and Moroccan armies..
A Pakistani official attended the exercise with Sudan too.That's pretty interesting. I can see Moroccan and Libyan, but Pakistani is quite unusual and maybe it's a sign of things to come and improved relations after several attempts between both Cheif of Staffs from both countries who want to create more of a military relationship and also from the Mirage deal that probably opened the door a little bit.
Most likely the exercise is for BVR first.. and as getting closer the use of short range missiles..Not sure if how they place them affect that in any way..Interesting how the MiG-35s in Sudan are placing the short range R-73s on the inner pylons and the medium range R-77 on the outer pylon. I seem to think it's usually the other way around.
Egypt has the R77 SD missile with a range of 110 km
It seems so.. but not only that ..look at the bottom of the missile it has that extension strip that the AE does not have..Is that red tape of cover covering the 3 holes? Is that why it has he circle around it?
You know I've been posting about this for a while now trying to find out which variant it is and still wondering how Mahmoud Gamal was able to tell without seeing the three holes?

There were rumors about Algeria signing a contract for the SU-57.. nothing surprising ..but nothing concrete yet..Ah, ok. Good to have another identifier on top of the 3 black holes. When I magnified the picture, I could see the 3 black holes through that red tape or whatever that red stuff is. So that's a definite in that case and good to know that the EAF now has the BVR missile is a very respectable amount that can play with the enemy who has the AIM-120C-7 variant. About time!
And soon to have an additional 30 aircraft in the Su-35SE that will also fire the R-77-1 as well as the R-27ER/IR! So a slew of BVR missiles and who knows, maybe they'll get the AWACs killer in the R-37M! Wouldn't that be nice.
Now they just have to sign a contract for the Su-57 hopefully soon if the Algerian rumor is true and Sukhoi is already taking orders for that aircraft, the EAF needs to jump on that soon enough before ending up too far back in the line! I've been saying this for a while, too. And no worried about the stage-2 engine for now. Do what I suppose the Algerians are also doing in ordering the aircraft with the stage-1 for now and when the new engine is ready, upgrade it then. That's a win-win situation since those engines can always end up being spares for the Su-35s. Just not sure of the validity of the Algerian rumor that they signed a contract for 14 Su-57s worth $2.2 billion.
The newest Russian attack drone will take part in exercises in the Black Sea

The newest Russian attack drone "Orion-M", which entered the troops just a month ago, will take part in the joint Russian-Egyptian exercises "Bridge of Friendship 2020", which are taking place in the Black Sea these days. This became known at a conference before the start of the naval phase of the exercise.

AFAIK there are continuous flight between Egypt and Russia carried out by Egyptian Transport Aircrafts. Initially I thought they could be transporting the RISC2 system to be installed on the Sukhois but who knows what they were actually lifting. I don’t think any Egyptian MiG-29M2s flew to Russia for upgrades since their arrival, one would question if these upgrades can be carried out in Egypt but I think the answer is no.There were rumors about Algeria signing a contract for the SU-57.. nothing surprising ..but nothing concrete yet..
Another 30 SU-35 SE will be a killer! add another 50 Mig-35 with AESA radars on that.. Apart from those 20 F-16 block 52 the rest will go to the second line..
As for the SU-57 it is logical after the SU-35 SE.. the stage2 engine will be ready by the time it will be delivered to Egypt..
Did you know that the R 77 SD was not for export before?
It is possible that the Egyptian Mig-35s have gone through some unannounced upgrade!? like the AESA radar!!?
