Hi. Does anyone have any images of Egyptian Patriot SAM batteries? I am looking for proof, whether that deal went through or was cancelled.

There are many sources out there!there is no patriot in egypt
No photo is available!
Photos and videos are not the only proof!
Buk-m & Tor-m had been in service since 2005 and we didn't see them until 2012!

why there is 2 type of camouflage on mig29?
There are some answers here about the Zhuk-AE availability and its time schedule for the Egyptian Mig-35 (Mig-29M/M2 Advanced)What a beautiful bird, with lethal caps. Not sure why they didn't add the roundel near the wing root like they had on the desert colored ones, and if they add the Tahya Misr slogan. Hope they only stick with the roundel and keep it looking as beautiful as it is.
If the additional Rafale contract gets signed, maybe they can find a way to add another 50 of these to the fleet, but have the Zhuk-AE and TVC options added in those, and maybe even order a batch of R-27s on top of the other missiles as well to make this thing a true interceptor with enough units to carry the workload. Not sure they'll have the funds for that, though, especially once the French bleed them out for exercising the option on the additional 12 Rafales.
Would also be nice to get some info on whether the Meteor will be eventually supplied to the EAF. Considering some F-15 users are interested in modifying that aircraft to fire the Meteor, that says a lot about that missile.
At the same time, with the MiGs having a HMDS, it's a no-brainer to look into one of the several options available for the Rafale.
This unique Ash and Grey paint job reminisce of the 1973 war era. This type of camouflage are usually optimized for ground attack aircraft to protect them from aerial attacks by high-flying interceptors aircraft. It is unknown whether the Egyptian Air Force would use some of the MiG-29Ms for ground attack as the paint scheme suggests.
As for the Naval camouflage, It suggests that some planes may work with the Navy and not directly under the Air force command.
