Correct , we have the man power of 800,000 soldier (including reserve) but most of our equipments is from the U.S or Europe. whose fault is it? it's El-Sadat fault, who drove us towards the west after camp david treaty, they control egypt now through its military equipments and they give us shity grade types , second hand and basic abrams , basic f-16s with no amraam , basis fremm frigates , basic gowind etc.
we should have gone to soviet and russian equpments , not better than western weapons but at least we could have had a chance to build it locally and improve it.
Egypt is in a shitty position.
