What's new

Egyptian Armed Forces

During, and after, the Egyptian visit to south Korea... I think there were some rumors about assembling this howitzer in Egypt, and how that Egypt may prefer the South Korean option over other options, mainly because of the transfere of technology.

Also... Still waiting to hear any good and confirmed news about our interest inSouth Korean Corvettes and frigates. The same ofcourse goes to our deal with France, for the additional 12 Rafales (Any chance the numbercan be raised to 24 ???) and the GOWINDS, with any NH Hels and A-200 Egypt may be interested in.

I know how long arms dealsmevaluations and negotiations may take... But, I'm just too excited... We still have A LOT more to acquire... Specially in the Air force, and the Navy ofcourse.

Really hole ths Korean Howitzermay be the begining for a huge number of deals between Egypt and South Korea.

WOW... I didn't know that the deal was already signed, and that it was for 4 Mekos, not just 2, and that one of them will be built in Egypt.

Too bad KSA has problems with Germany, and won't pay for the deal, as KSA was supposed to pay a big portion of the deal price, according to the article.

Hey guys, anyone ever herd of this thing called "Scarab model 324" stealth drone, made in the US in the 80s exclusively for Egypt?

Northrop Grumman's (Teledyne Ryan) Model 324 Scarab was custom-designed in response to Egyptian Air Force requirements. The Model 324 is a versatile, easy to operate reconnaissance UAV that has a cruise range of 1,400 miles and with a speed of Mach 0.8. The wings are low-mounted, swept-back, and tapered. The turbojet engine is hidden in the aft belly compartment until launch. The fuselage is flat-bottomed with a pointed nose and hump on aft top of craft. Two swept-back and tapered fins are mounted on unequally tapered flats.

It has made its first flight in 1988. The Egyptian Air Force has acquired 56 copies, which are still in use today. It is used for low-level photographic reconnaissance. It can carry 100 kg of payload over 2250 km. Its navigation is done through an inertial system and a GPS. It is equipped with a KS-153A 24 "FL camera or a Loral D-500 infrared system, which allows it to operate day and night.

It must be said that the sale of this aircraft to Egypt has been heavily criticized, because of its technology and the possibility of deriving a cruise missile (what Teledyne Ryan has done with the Scarab-LACM ). In 1999, Teledyne Ryan was absorbed by Northrop Grumman.

Rheinmetall proposing Oerlikon Revolver Gun Mk3 to the Egyptian Armed Forces
Rheinmetall_Oerlikon_Mk3_EDEX_2018_925_001.jpg


The remotely controlled air defence gun is considered a flexible solution against multifaceted targets. integrated into the 35mm platform are a tracking/sensor unit with X-band tracking radar and electro-optical sensors as well as electronic warfare components. This enables swift, autonomous engagement of externally assigned targets.

Two soldiers are required for the preparation of the Oerlikon Revolver Gun Mk3. Being remotely controlled increases the safety of personnel.

The Oerlikon Revolver Gun Mk3 can receive and process target data from 2D and 3D search radars. Integrated sensors and a fire control computer give the system an autonomous surveillance and target engagement capability. It can be controlled from a higher-echelon command post or via an operator station to which up to eight guns can be connected.

The tried-and-tested 35mm x 228 automatic cannon delivers compelling firepower and high precision. Coupled with Rheinmetall’s proprietary AHEAD airburst technology, the Oerlikon Revolver Gun Mk3 is extremely effective against practically all air and ground targets.

At Eurosatory 2016 Rheinmetall is presenting its new air defence gun as a possible effector for the Oerlikon Skynex – the Group’s new design for a fully networked, future ground-based air defence system.

Lacroix ready to provide Egyptian Armed Forces with full range of countermeasures

Lacroix_ready_to_provide_Egyptian_Armed_Forces_with_full_range_of_countermeasures_001.jpg


The GALIX AOS (Automatic Obscuration System) coupled with Laser Warning Detectors enable automatic deployment of GALIX munitions -guaranteed non-toxic - to instantaneously mask vehicles against all visible and IR wave lengths of guided missiles.

This solution has been recently presented at the Forum Innovation Défense in Paris, and is also being offered to the Egyptian Armed Forces as it is perfectly suited to their vehicle retrofitting requirements and new equipment programs: combat tanks, armored vehicles, APC, LUV, etc.

In the heart of the French Pavilion, stand 1771, Lacroix will be demonstrating its vision of soft kill vehicle self-protection through an immersive 3D demonstration.

The protection system comprises a laser warning detector array and sensors coupled with an automatic perimeter masking system. Connected to the vehicle’s vetronics, the system deploys automatically once a threat is detected in accordance with pre-set parameters, kinetic and environmental conditions and further recommends evasive maneuvers to be carried out.

In its basic version, protection is achieved through instantaneous deployment of a large smoke screen, masking the vehicle from the visible to the far infrared of the spectrum. This system was initially developed and qualified within the framework of an export contract on an advanced generation vehicle in compliance with the STANAG specifications in effect. It is currently employed by an international army. The experience acquired during its deployment on various international land vehicles and its recognizedexpertise in countermeasures solutions (confusion, distraction, seduction) and in threat analysis in the air and sea domains, enables it to provide innovative protection solutions for the present and the future: innovative soft-kill protection.

Lacroix is a committed partner to the Egyptian Armed Forces, equipping its Rafale, Mirage and F16 fighter jets. These platforms are protected by Lacroix’s most advanced technology in the field of spectral infrared countermeasures. Lacroix will also ensure protection of the Egyptian Navy’s latest vessels - the FREMM frigates and the GOWIND corvettes of the French Naval Group. These vessels are also equipped with the Sylena MK2 decoy launchers, providing full anti-torpedo and anti-missile protection against the most advanced threats.

NEWSROOM (ADV) – Egyptian and French naval forces carried out joint military drills across the Mediterranean Sea on Sunday, the Egyptian military spokesman said in a statement.

“The training included implementation of several activities of sailing formations day and night, which showed the power of the participating maritime units in taking its positions fast and accurately,” the spokesperson of the armed force, Tamer el-Refaie, said.

The naval exercises also included the implementation of a realistic scenario of meeting the challenges facing maritime security, combating terrorism and protecting vital maritime targets such as gas and oil platforms against typical threats, it added.

“In light of boosting the special ties, enhancing cooperation and exchange of experiences between the Egyptian armed forces and its partners from friendly countries, elements from the Egyptian and French navies have conducted naval exercise, with French Courbet and several Egyptian pieces,” the statement added.

Egypt regularly holds military exercises with Arab, African and Western states to boost military collaboration and exchange military expertise.

In early November, Egyptian and French naval forces carried out joint military drills across the Mediterranean Sea. Egypt also started the “Arab Sheild 1” joint drills with forces from Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Kuwait and Jordan at Egypt’s Mohamed Naguib military base in the Mediterranean province of Matrouh, the largest base in the Middle East and Africa.

The production of an Egyptian armored vehicle started three years ago with Egyptian minds completely; the design of armored vehicles and their full implementation inside the war production factories of the Ministry of Military Production, pointing out that there are different versions of the armored vehicles, including light and heavy fighting vehicles; and riot breakout and rapid intervention and special forces vehicles participating in the fight against terrorism.
