Egypt had previously requested the production of one of the Russian missiles AT-9/AT-16 in Egypt in order to arm the KA-52.
Where the Russians suggested that Egypt upgrade the Egyptian version to the level of the Russian version, the KA-52E/M, and provide it with a new series of ammunition.

And perhaps a new missile with a modern design derived from the Chinese C-705 missile and of a smaller size that can be integrated into the containers of the Amon air defense system to work as a coastal defense missile and to supply 24 missile launchers and an Egyptian Corvette with it in the future.
The next generation tender will be completed. The French company, NAVAL GROUP, offers various offers to the Egyptian Navy, including a staring copy of the GOWIND 2500/3000 corvette or FDI Frigate, and perhaps the TYPE-54B frigate, but with French equipment such as the NS-200 radar, fire management systems and the combat mission, as it is considered a racehorse.

local production Type 625E or M61A2
The importance of this exhibition will remain in the lessons learned from the Russian-Ukrainian war, which is the production of low-cost, high-performance weapons with great mass is vital.
Also, the latest indications are Turkey’s exit from the regional competition as a result of the high level of tension locally and conflicts over governance, in addition to the impact of the earthquakes that will cause the opening of corruption files for the ruling regime and the obstruction of its military programs and its need for a period of calm with all its neighbors, especially in the event that Meral Akşener takes power, as it will lead the calm with all neighboring countries as a result of the crises The successive economies that start with earthquakes, which opens cooperation programs between Egypt and Turkey, even in the military field
