What's new

Egyptian Armed Forces

Problem is that it is an old news so we don't know if they signed it yes or no. I knew that the UAE and the KSA were or are still interested on it.
Egypt started the production of the basic type in 2018.. there are many types as you know..
Egypt has anouced to increase the production to 1000 units a year..So first the demand is pretty big in the Egyptian army itself.. and that should be filled first..after that comes export and even then there are a lot of variants to be considered.. but exports will come as both KSA and the UAE liked the system..

I hope we will see those anti tank and cruise missile in the upcoming months with mounted on those vehicles. Maybe they will be produced locally with a licence from China.

Yes. We must focus on ourselves first since security and capabilities is of utmost priority.

But why it is taking long to see those missiles in Egypt and those missiles are available and produced in China
Well first they need to be integrated, tested and approved.. this takes its own time..

It's been quiet on the naval front, only these pics of Abu Simbel replenishing ship on its way to a UK port for the name change and probably a new paint job and refitting.

The interesting aspect about the 24 Eurofighter Typhoons is that it sounds like they've signed the deal and Egypt is requesting an expedited delivery of the first batch of aircraft, just like they did with the Rafales which would be taken out of the current assembly line units designated for the Italian Air Force. Sounds like we might see them sooner than later, at least the first 3 or so.

What makes this even more interesting will be the weapon's package, and specifically the Storm Shadow since that's the cruise missile that is part of the Typhoons weapons inventory. Despite the commonality with the French SCALP on the Rafale and the EAF acquiring an additional 300 of those missiles with the new Rafal order, what will they order with the Typhoon? The Storm Shadow is pretty much the British copy of the SCALP (or the other way around it doesn't really matter) but heavily packed with US technology. That makes it a major sticking point and of course, what will happen with the Meteors and these Typhoons? Will Italy be able to supply them through MBDA? What about the Brimstones (also British weapons) and the IRIST-T A2A missiles (I believe are German)? All these questions makes this EFT deal rather interesting to see what happens with them.

I think we will look for more french SCALPS
No brimstones that thing is filled from head to toe with American components and might as well be American
IRIS-T is a nessacity
