Absolutely fantastic! This will undoutedly allow Egyptian Rafales to knock of Israeli F-16I's, and F-15I's of from the sky at vast ranges of 150-200 Km. I will certainly provide the EAF with a deterrent up in the Air.

It is a threat to the F-35 itself if detected in a good range with the Rafale “Front Sector Optronics” (FSO) system.. that covers long-range detection and identification, high resolution angular tracking and laser range-finding for air, sea and ground targets.. all in silent mod..

Italian company Leonardo signs a new sales contract for the M346 to an unknown customer


The Italian Aviation and Defense Group, which revealed its performance in the first quarter on May 6, announced that new orders in the aircraft division have improved compared to the same period in 2020 “thanks to the conclusion of a major contract for the export of M-346 aircraft.”

شركة ليوناردو الإيطالية تُوقع عقد بيع جديد لطائرة M346 لزبون مجهول

An unknown customer and a major contract!?
I wonder why Italians are going for m345 when they have m346!!!!

They have both the basic-advanced.. and the master.. trainers..

Leonardo M-345 and M-346: Much More than Trainers

While sometimes I an skeptical to news coming out of Defense Arabic, this one seems to be consistent with some of the other pretty crebdible sources. I still can't believe that there are over 100 SCALPs in Egypt!

So we know the M346 are coming, the additional 4 FREMMs are coming and now it's just a matter of time to wait and see if the 24 Typhoons will be included in the mega deal or if the EAF negotiated excluding them out of the deal. My personal feeling is that they will be included because most of the items that are on the deal are mostly requests by the purchaser and not offers from the suppliers.

It's about time and if France has acquiesced to the Meteor, then the Typhoon should be a no-brainer to include in the deal as long as the Italians can guarantee a decent batch of them so that the EAF can have an additional source if the French decide to stop supplying them, which should never really happen.

Among the most important features and upgrades that the new Egyptian Rafale will obtain in the coming period are the following:

- The Meteor long-range air-to-air missile is the most important thing that will come with the new development package, which will allow the fighter to engage air targets from long ranges exceeding 100 kilometers and at a tremendous speed of Mach 4 (4880 kilometers per hour) with " Fire & Forget" capability in addition to the Mica EM radar missiles with a maximum range of 80 km and the Mica IR thermal with a maximum range of 60 km, which are already within the current armament of the fighter..And also the Mica NG air-to air missile..

- Monitoring, tracking, thermal / optical navigation and laser pod "TALIOS" type will be the new alternative to the current pod "Damocles", and the Egyptian Air Force is the first foreign customer to contract it alongside its French counterpart.

- AASM INS / GPS Laser bombs, specifically (AASM-1000) equipped with an inertial navigation package and satellite + laser sensor for the final stage to hit moving targets with a range of 60 km, will be integrated on the new TALIOS pod, to work alongside the AASM INS / GPS version that Contains the Inertial Navigation Package and Satellite, the AASM INS / GPS IR version containing the Inertial Navigation Package and the satellite + end-stage thermal sensor. In addition to the incorporation of the US GBU-16 laser-guided bombs weighing 500 kg, and which has a range of 15 km.

- The IFF enemy and friend identification system will get the new mode 5 / S work, and the SPECTRA electronic protection package will get new electronic warfare capabilities for jamming and disruption. Besides, the RBE2-AESA radar itself will get new working modes that will make it work at its maximum capabilities.

- A SAASM or "Selective-Availability Anti-Spoofing Module" will be added that allows for the decryption of Military GPS data while increasing accuracy and traceability in a hostile jamming environment as well as avoiding false data transmitters.

- New generation incubator air refueling between fighters, which will allow better fuel flow rates than the generation currently used. The Egyptian Rafale is the only fighter to operate this exclusive system on the French Rafale marine version.

You should've tagged @AlBaba to read this quote. He thinks we've been duped and junked and all the training we received to use all these weapons was done by French pilots and engineers who were in on the whole conspiracy act and full of lies because all these SCALPs and Meteors have been compromised to Israel alone including giving them the source codes LOL. That post has some serious GTA stuff in it looool.

To add more for those questioning why the Meteor is not in Egypt yet:

"The French Air Force can now count on what it describes as a “game-changer.” On March 4, 2021, it announced that it carried out the first operational flight with a Rafale equipped with combat-ready Meteor missiles."

We are talking about 2 months ago..

It is obvious that AliBaba and Co. are feeling hurt by these formidable deals..So they'll come up with anything to sooth their hearts and souls..

Egyptian Data Link
News about an Egyptian electronic system (software) that can link fighters of different styles and origins, including the Rafale (it will be integrated locally). It is expected to be announced at the opening of the Egyptian Octagon.

Also There is talk about the Mistral equipment, Caesar 155 mm artillery system, and more.. other than the Navy side..

Saw USAF video on fb 192 wing perhaps Rafael participated in exercise and they shared its special including radar range 140 km against fighters will try to find again

That will be nice to see..

The RBE2 AESA active electronically scanned array (AESA) radar now replaces the previous passively scanned RBE2. The RBE2 AESA is reported to deliver a greater detection range of 200 km, improved reliability and reduced maintenance demands over the preceding radar.
