There are just so much people that are full of hate on this forum.

Absolutely fantastic! This will undoutedly allow Egyptian Rafales to knock of Israeli F-16I's, and F-15I's of from the sky at vast ranges of 150-200 Km. I will certainly provide the EAF with a deterrent up in the Air.

This isnt the same smart glider weapon that coming with Egypt's rafale. The one that was ordered with Egypts rafale is one that is fully manufactured by MBDA and jointly with the UAE.

This is an article that has been posted of the tactical report website. I will post the link down below: Egypt, France, and Rafale deal Egypt and France have signed a contract for the procurement of 30 more Rafale fighter jets from Dassault Aviation in favor of the Egyptian Air Force (EAF)...

What i concerned about most too is the weapons package? 200 million is very little to spend of a a weapons package that included, hammer, meteor, scalp and the smart glider small diameter bomb and well other weapon systems etc..... If you look at the price of the meteor it costs $2.28 million...

Agreed! The french as well not refused to sell us the scalp or the meteor, and we have in fact received scalp missile in the past. Frances polices differ a lot to that if the United States as well. They must have abviously figured a solution to ITAR problem to the sclap and meteor if the french...

I do believe that there is a huge chance it could happen with the way Egypt is putting its pressure in the United States by its stategy of arms diversity thorugh buying Rafale with MICA and Meteor and Su-35 with R-77s. That would obvious have an effect on them over the long run.

I am astonished and very suprised and wondering as well to why such what seems to be a very low price tag for this order of 30 aircraft. Especially with a jet that costs 160 euros per aircraft. Unless the french cut lots of corners to try and bring the price down.

Oh there is see it right now? I am still not convinced thou. They may not deliver them at the time of delivery but at a later time thou. The article says for the time being!

How are you able to see the rest of the article then? Have you paid you may want to share it with us over hear?

I dont see that written in the article? Were do you see it?

I believe it is sometime within the next few years.

Any reasonable person would obviously believe that whatever that military expert is trying to say is BS. In case you have not read or taken notice what he wrote in the article: " Israel, which is flying the F-35 fighter jet, developed its Derby air-to-air missile in response to an initial US...

Hay guys! Its been quiet a while since i last posted hear. I have been reading your posts and i can see you have been making alot of interesting points about the new Rafale sale by Egypt.

Yes Meteor and Mica next generation.

Yaa i dont there is any chance Egypt could be a member, the fighter itself integrates so much American and Israeli avionics, so i would rule out Egypt even being interested in that program. I do apologize too for my for my prolonged absence on the forum the past couple of weeks due to so...

I was just going to post that Photo. Its apprantly part of a second batch of 5 planes due to be delivered to Cairo, they have numbers of 9215 to 9219 compared to the previous batch that have number 9210-9214. So now there are a total of 10 SU-35s in Egypt's Inventory.

That first photo you got over there is a photo of nu scale not the Numble Dragon.

It will probably be a few years before the demonstration project is done, and reactor fires up and some performance shows up. This looks like a very ambitious design that could be very successful in the export market.

Egypt really needs to build at least 6 of these things in the country. China would be ready to provide Egypt a lot of financial incentives. I wonder why wont an agreement like this materialize?
