Excellent post by you as usual, Sami basha but you know we all have a HUGE problem with your sources, lol. All you have to do is mention the magazine (which is usually the Jerusalem Post lol) or even mention if you read it locally. That would go a super long way.
BTW, I particularly like how you emphasizes new technology that is in either in the works or in effect actually active in the field being used.
The only problem is like I mentioned to
@Ghostkiller before and that is India is like the 4th or 5th economy in the world and with a budget of billions of billions of hogans. the sky's the limit, my friend,
SUPER HIGH RATE OF CONSUMPTION, NEVERMIND DOWNED MILLION $ AIRCRAFT, BUT JUST LOOK AT THE AMUMITION THAT NEEDS TO BE used up TO COMPETE IN AN ADVANGATEGEOUS MANNER. As you probably all already quite well INFOMMED, I have absolutely no love for the jews whom are cowardly beating innocent Palestinians women (not that men shouldn't count) and stealing THEIR HOMES LIKE THE OLD THIEVES THEY ALWAYS WERE FROM THE DAYS OF EUROPE AND ESPECIALLY TRYING TO PULL THAT FILTHY STUNT OF STEALING OUT MUSLIM AND BIBLICAL AND MOSES' LAND IN SINAI ONLY TO TAKE A BEATING OF THE HGIHEST ORDER WITH THE LEAST AMOUNT OF EQUIPMENT AND THAT IS WHERE THAT TRAINING level I WAS REFERRONG TO COMES IN.
With
@Ramses Akhenaten Ahmose excellent ideas, I still think the cost of SOME STUF MIGHT HAVE ITS USES BUT I WOULD STICK TO WHAT HAS ALWAYS WORKED EVEN IN WWII AND THAT IS INFLATEABLE DECOYS, JUST TO FOOL THE SLIGHTLY DUMB ARMIES.
Speaking of attrition of not only the exorbitant cost of the F-16 hourly flying cost, but the cost of the million $ weapons they have to use on them which is why you almost always see them with Mark dumb 82 bombs and then there is the exact genius of Sisi in his speech along with the collaboration of the UAE & MBZ who went out and invested in the Air Tractor to cut down on all the CRAZY costs by exorbitant amounts chasing those vermin cretin scum trying to infiltrate our county. One thing to look for a better life, but to join ISIS and to kill innocent people was the mindset of those cretinous steaming monstrous filthy steaming dung and the creation of the GENIUS Air Tractor move. The Air Tractor in military configurations probably reduced the cost of not only the military flight hours but mostly reduced the amo cost of dismembering those subhuman vermin cretin scum-sucking hogs of the worst order.

Notice the scum haters wjo used to write articles full of lying numbers of cretins successes and infiltrations in Sinai? Where are those scuzz buckets now? Oh, I guess that whey you're an ARAB country and you come up with your own genius COIN and Anti Terrorism method to eradicate the scum of the earth, then you really can't open your stink breath and say anything lol. But they'll be back since those scum vermin won't quit, they'll only succeed in small versions of terrorism and what Egypt needs to know is what the most extreme punishment is that is not against the Geneva Convention is and implement it on every surviving scum they get. Unfortunately they get, eliminated instantaneously on the spot they've gotten so good at eliminating the cretins and wanted to tech Egypt how they did it in Faluja and Iraq etc. so that many more GBU AZZz and HELFIRES and who knows how many more millions of $ the us would need what else the US would've included in what they thought was some American genius plan of their own ways which made me believe that was the main reason Sisi and Co. refused the US' help that got played at their own game lol. Might have had some speculation at the US' action towards the Su-35SEs with their filthy foreign policy paying their own allies like criminals zeft el tin.
Not to mention the Air Tractior is actually a US-built aircraft but with much less costly amo and not just that, the amo left to use in the Mirage 2ks was time to get rid of them as well as others that were much less costly. Another BRAVO for President SISI whom A LOT of African and other presidents are taking notices of. De 7alawa gamda awu!! US got played at its own filthy foreign policy game hahahaha. great country from start to end right before it's filthy foreign policy it gets away with it because of its strength.
We need some mew pics of our new Rafales fille with Meteor millisoles and evem duddly MICA NGs.
Indeed. Having the 4 metors, two types of MICAs and the two types of AASMs and SCALPS is not enough. The need a MUCH larger batch for different roles.
Are you taking about the Brahmos? Any front that has the MiG-21 cone is exceptional. Bas 7a yemelu eh fil haggat et yehudi iel fehum?
The information we provide as a result of the extended exposure to the news for many years and in a cumulative manner, as well as knowing the way the Egyptians think, the matter here is not an informed source, but when you understand how a person plans, things differ
When we mentioned specific points that the most important for Egyptian frigates and corvettes
Electronic equipment such as radar and electronic warfare systems, so possessing superiority in these points, I made them clear, is the basis. The West restricts Egyptian armament to a minimum, and you must deal with them intelligently.
Simply find Egyptian negotiations with Japan for obsidian surface missiles such as TYPE-12 and BVR missiles such as Mitsubishi AAM-4
The same is true of the WVR AAM-5 missiles
To get out of the scope of alienation restrictions or weapons
The obvious ones, such as Exocet and Harun, especially with the knowledge that these Japanese missiles are subject to development programs and are Western missiles.
The same is true of the Taiwanese TC-2 missiles, which have a speed of Mach 5. Is it an alternative to the European MICA/METEOR missiles?
To get out of the scope of alienation restrictions or weapons
https://www.tacticalreport.com/news/article/60682-egypt-mhi-and-ashms-missiles
(
The Egyptian Ministry of Military Production (MoMP) is reportedly in talks with the Japanese company Mitsubishi Heavy Industries (MHI) for the procurement of anti-ship missiles (AshMs), a transfer of technology (ToT) and a license agreement for air-to-air missiles (AAMs).
Tactical Report has prepared a 185-word report to shed more light on the subject. )
Europe itself wants to cooperate with Japan for AESA radars for the AAM-4.5 missile to develop a new missile with a ramjet engine for it to be used in Europe
So what I am saying stems from following the thought and not the sources
In other words, we simply put forward the reality that the Egyptian frigates and corvettes are the leaders of combat work teams
But also to exploit every development that occurs in armament or the emergence of new equipment that can be employed with a new thought
Like the Italian AW609 aircraft, it can be used for LHD MISTRAL to serve as an electronic warfare and early warning framework, and even in other copies of the naval patrol launched from it after the appropriate preparations for it. We will not say to combat submarines, but everything is on the table and can be employed.
In the past, Egypt cooperated with the Turks in the production of the MRTP-20 boat, and relations were severed. Egypt later produced an upgraded version of it with Japanese engines and various modifications.
The same is true of the MRTP-33 missile launchers, and they are equipped with the Chinese C-905KD missile. The publication of this information is one of the annual reports of the Turkish companies for arms sales, and they have implemented contracts with the Egyptian market, so the next point for Egypt and the most logical is the production of the UUV launcher based on the MRTP-20 This point stems from the traditional thought The Egyptians, as a result of their low level of management, are trying to take advantage of everything they have available
To illustrate a simple example, many years ago, we published the SCRAB-324 plane project, in which Egypt purchased 56 planes from America and operates with the Harpoon missile engine, so it is very natural that Egypt prevents the production of the fleeing missile engines locally within the technical insurance programs for American armament in Egypt, which is supposed to move to another stage in the production of the plane. With better specifications, at least, to maintain the numbers of planes and exploit the platforms for many years. Exploiting the plane as a projectile for the old Egyptian F-4E and F-16 planes and converting it into a cruise missile due to the fact that Egypt makes the best use of every weapon it has
It is the same thought that developed the ASN-209 plane into another version called NUT to escape from being a Chinese product to integrate a French FLIR on it and perhaps exploit a better engine after reducing its weight by 25% to raise its performance level and flight range to 16 hours instead of 10-12 hours and the armed version 14 flight hour
Acquiring Korean technologies may raise their level to 24 hours of flight and use other munitions besides Chinese munitions.
We come to the most important point in the world, which has a problem with the production capabilities of baskets now
Countries such as Turkey, Iran and Pakistan do not find fighter suppliers for them
So Egypt is supposed to expand the options for obtaining fighters for other countries such as India and transport planes such as Japan and Brazil, and also employing transport planes in new tasks that reduce the consumption of fighters, such as converting them into platforms to launch 9-12 cruise missiles in one flight or launching unmanned aircraft or SWARM aircraft
We return to the Egyptian points of defects, such as the weak leadership efficiency, the clarity of ambition, their limited creativity, and corruption as well. Appointing leaders with limited competence is a type of high-performance corruption. Corruption is not only bribery and bribery, and it is also not free from any country, but its increase in Egypt by choosing a leadership with limited intelligence is reflected in Egypt
I give you a very simple example of how I develop my relations with India with a different thought
Egypt is an annual arms market of $5 billion and a market for weapons components of no less than $2 billion. When negotiating with a country such as India or Japan, I focus on the points that Egypt, when we expand the framework of its cooperation with India, will expand the Indian industrial base, which will reflect on India’s capabilities in increasing the local component and the independence of a weapons manufacturer. Therefore, its negotiations with the West to obtain technology will be more flexible for it. In return, I, as Egypt, enter as a partner in the development of some weapons by providing funding
A very simple example is given
Egypt needs fifth and 5.5 generation fighters as well
But Egypt needs 4.5 fighters if the TEJAS MK1A project is completed, and we are the first to promote it as an idea and a preference over the modest Korean for performance, efficiency, high financial cost, higher political cost and lower performance for the FA-50, and we rejected it from the beginning. MK1A with a number, for example, 120 for the local market to the production of the TEDBF
With the participation of Egypt, with an amount of 600 million dollars, the development program has increased the 1750 million Indian dollars, provided that the production of the aircraft is accelerated, so that it enters service with India 2027 and Egypt 2029
The Egyptian version will not be to work on aircraft carriers and therefore will be lighter in weight than the version that operates on aircraft carriers with the fact that the selected engine has a thrust of at least 100 KN and will be replaced in the future with an engine with a capacity of 125 KN
Egypt’s purchase of 60 aircraft, of which it will benefit the Egyptian Air Force, the cost of the aircraft will be much lower than the Rafale, which will be at least 70% of the cost of the Rafale, which also suffers from the inability to produce in sufficient numbers for international markets
It also allows the use of other munitions that are less expensive than MBDA munitions
You simply use the competition between countries to get the best offers available
Cooperation with Japan will provide it with additional profits from previous national projects that were working with low economic feasibility, Egyptian purchases from them, and cooperation with Japan will expand the industrial base of both countries.
Cooperation with India in missile components and in some missile programs will benefit both bodies, because engineering will be able to expand its industrial base, and this must come at a good price in technology transfer, because simply expanding the circle of competition will benefit the Egyptians
ASTRA-MK3
In previous discussions, many months ago, we suggested that Egypt would produce the Chinese AR-500 UAV, and currently negotiations are being announced for their local production.
