General Abdel Moneim al-Taras, commander of the Air Defense Forces said: "Egypt has the latest and most complex missile system in the world..The Egyptian genius lies in the optimal use of our weapons."

...

Scientific research is of utmost importance for the future and nations are measured by their interest in scientific research. The Commander of the Air Defense Forces revealed how scientific research is used in the development of weapons and equipment in the Air Defense Forces. "At the beginning I emphasize that we are interested in all areas of scientific research, It can be used in the development of our weapons and equipment. The Air Defense Force has a technical research and development center, which is responsible for modernization and development and to add the required modifications to the air defense equipment, drawing on the expertise of "engineering officers, technicians and equipment users" Research samples and their implementation in practice starting with laboratory tests, then field tests to determine their suitability for actual field use by air defense fighters. "

He added: "The Technical Research Center is developing air defense equipment through integrated stages with the aim of using modern technology and taking advantage of the latest scientific techniques to improve the performance of air defense equipment, in addition to close cooperation with various technical research centers in the armed forces to study the problems of the use of weapons Equipment and best solutions. "

He continued: "As for the means of strengthening the scientific research areas of air defense officers, they are many of which the College of Air Defense holds many seminars and lectures in which the participation of civil professors from Egyptian universities of various disciplines, as well as participate in seminars held by the Military Research Commission and Nasser Military Academy And to strengthen the scientific research, air defense officers are sent abroad to share the knowledge and know-how between us and other countries and obtain advanced degrees "Masters, PhD" to keep abreast of the latest in science in the countries of the world.

...

He added: "When we talk about the combat readiness of the air defense forces, we are talking about the permanent and continuous goal of these forces, so that they can be able day and night in peace and war and under various circumstances to carry out their tasks successfully, and achieve the high and permanent readiness of combat through a set of determinants, In circumstances and situations of the forces, and are based on very precise calculations and standards in order to provide the necessary time for the transfer of forces to carry out its tasks in a timely manner."

He continued: "The constant combat readiness is maintained through continuous information on the enemy, the precise organization of the means of transportation, the readiness of the main command centers, reciprocal management of combat operations and the maintenance of the technical proficiency of weapons and equipment. All these elements are carried out within a framework of complete military discipline, The participation of elements of the Air Defense Forces in assisting the rest of the General Command of the Armed Forces in securing the home front and the democratic transformation of the State is one of the secondary tasks carried out by the Air Defense Forces without prejudice to its principal task of securing and protecting the sky on all the different strategic directions of the State."

In general, we will mention the advantages of the Egyptian Air Defense Force:

The Patriot Pack 3 and The S-300VM are not the only latest systems of the Egyptian Air Defense.. Egypt has complete systems on all ranges and altitudes from more than one source,
All of which are the most superior in their class..

Integrated Russian system

Long-range air defense: S300 VM "the second best Russian air defense after the S-400"
Mid-range air defense: Buk m1-2 and Buk m2 "Best Russian air defense system medium range"
Short-range air defense: Tor m1 and Tor m2 "Best short range Russian air defense system"
Air defense shoulder-portable : Igla "the best Russian air defense manpad system"


Integrated American system

Long-range air defense: Patriot pac 3
Mid-range air defense: Hawk phase 3
Short-range air defense: Avenger, Chaparal
Air defense shoulder-portable : Stinger


Integrated Soviet system

Long-range air defense: Sam 2 Volga with upgraded/modernized range and warhead
Mid-range air defense: Pechora m2 and Sam 6
Short-range air defense: Sam 9
Air defense shoulder-portable : Sam 7


Different European systems

Short-range air defense: Crotale and Sky Guard


This is for the advanced technologies quality ..If we look at the quantities, it is truly impressive

Egypt has more than 200 units of the Pechora M2 system, for example..and this is only one system out of more than 15 systems..

Pechora-M2

"Upgrading ADMS "Pechora-1" up to "Pechora-2" provides for increasing performance of the complex to ensure a successful struggle with modern means of air attack in a difficult jamming environment through the use of technology and the base elements S-300 PMU1."
http://www.snariad.ru/pvo/pecera

It was also supplied with " KRTZ-125/2M " EW system and "Laser/Ir-Tracking" a "Radio Silent Tracking" system and also a "Daylight TV Camera" to counter Anti-radar missiles and jamming..

The radars of the Pechora M-2 system are a very respectable variety of radars:

1 - P-15 or "M1-Flat Face" radar for interception and aerial surveillance of up to (150 km).

2 - M2-Squat Eye radar with a range of about 128 km.

3 - Low Blow radar, a fire control radar and missile guidance radar within a range of 29 to 40 km, and with a tracking range of about 85 km. In addition to having TV cameras to guide the missiles to a distance of (25 km) in the case of an intensive electronic jam, and this radar can track (6) targets at the same time.

Egyptian air defense operates on the principle of cross-sections..These regimes not only cover Egypt..These systems cover the skies of Egypt more than once in intersecting circles..
You will find Each circle protected by several long, medium and short-range systems..All of which are of different ranges, frequencies and countries of origin..So, the possibility of jamming all of them at the same time falls within the realm of the impossible..

On the issue of complexity I will give the example of the early detection network that is comprised of:
The APS-145 + TPS-59 + SPS-48 + TPS-43 + TRS-2100 + TPS-63 from US and UK..
P-14 + P-18 + P-40 + High Screen + Billboard + P-12 + P-15 + 9S36 + 9C18M from Russia..
And YLC-6 + FD-2000 from China..

You will not find this mix in any other country, especially the Billboard, 9S36, 9C18, the Russian SPS-48LGR, the US TPS-59 and the FD-2000 specific to the Chinese HQ-9.

There are also other Egyptian Radars:

The JY-11, the JYL-1, the POST-3 and the LION-S the British.. the most important one is "POST-3M" after the upgrade, reaches 800 kilometers, it is a passive radar.. there is also the "TPX-46A (V) 7 " with a range of 370 km, that is working with the PATRIOT and Hawk missiles..

* The Egyptian air defense network consists not only of missile and anti-aircraft artillery systems, but also of command and control stations and early warning stations consisting of early warning radars and aerial surveillance of various altitudes, high, medium, low and very low altitudes, large wavelengths and passive surveillance radars that tracks stealth aircrafts, Observation points (electrostatic and thermal systems), EW stations, electronic jamming, signal and wireless communications, Electronic and radio stations, and all the above are fully linked and integrated into the C4I network.. Which is of western origin and thus more capable of integrating Eastern and Western air defense systems into a single network that can be managed from anywhere. Egypt manufactures parts of this network, especially the EriTacLTs. The complexity of the Egyptian network is that it contains American, French, British, Chinese and Egyptian radar systems, and multi-source missile batteries. The network is also complemented by the AEW & C Airborne Early Warning & Control fleet, ISR Intelligence, Surveillance & Reconnaissance, Electronic ECM Electronic Countermeasures / Radar Jamming / Jamming Deception of E2C Hawkeye-2000 aircraft, the Beachcraft 1900C and EC-130H Compass Call , plus the Mk.2E Commando and Mi-8MV helicopters..

Air Defense
Egypt has one of the largest and best-organized air defense systems in the Middle East. Its arsenals include 12 batteries of MIM-23 Improved Hawk surface-to-air missiles with 78 launchers. The Hawk has a range of 45km to 50km and is guided by semi-active radar homing; it has a single-shot success rate of 83%. In 1999, Egypt acquired 32 Patriot-3 (MIM-104-F/PAC-3) missile systems from the United States for $1.3 billion. The PAC-3 is a highly-maneuverable hit-to-kill missile designed to defend against short and medium-range ballistic missiles.. a November 2014 video released by the Ministry of Defense indicates Egypt has either upgraded or possibly obtained new Russian-made Buk medium-range and Tor short-range surface-to-air missiles systems. The new Buk-M2 still uses the same 9M317 missile as its Buk-M1-2 predecessor, but "can simultaneously engage four times the number of targets than the Buk-M1-2." Similarly, the new or upgraded Tor-M2 is capable of engaging four targets simultaneously, up from the single target by the Tor-M1.

There are a lot of articles that indicate Egypt operates the PAC-3, but I do believe that there was interest in it and it was refused because of our neighbors. And since there is no need for Egypt to hide any US military purchases, it would make sense that we would have seen it for sure by now, especially if it was something that happened in the late 90's. On the other hand, Egypt and Russia always play those hiding games about certain sensitive systems, so it would make sense that they kept the wraps on the TOR & BUK systems until they felt comfortable to show them.

Here's even another article that goes into great depths on Egypt having the PAC-3 system and how the S-300VM is cause for concern for some and whether the 9M82ME with 250KM range or the 9M82MDE with a 350 km range are the missiles in EADS inventory as that additional 100 kms makes a huge difference. And at the same time, Egypt could've opted for the PAC-3 MSE (Missile Segment Enhancement) or THAAD which of course is silly. But it's a testament to the S-300VM/Antey-2500.

According to Rosoboronexport, the 9M82ME and 9M82MDE are capable of intercepting ballistic targets traveling at speeds of up to 4.8 km/s (Mach 14) and at distances of up to 30 km (19 miles); this is greater than the Patriot Advanced Capability-3 (PAC-3) interceptors currently in service with Egypt’s Air Defense Command.

Hence, rather than procure the S-300VM from Russia, Cairo could have opted for the US-built PAC-3 Missile Segment Enhancement (MSE) interceptor or the Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) system in order to better address the Iranian missile threat. The latter is purely a missile defense system and would therefore not be perceived as a threat by Israel.

However, the PAC-3 utilizes “hit-to-kill” technology, making it more effective against high-speed ballistic targets than a semi-active radar homing missile with a blast-fragmentation warhead (such as the 9M82ME/MDE). Also, there is no reliable test data on the 9M82M-series of SAMs that attests to their alleged high probability of kill.

Blatant falsehood, there is no Patriot Systems in Egypt. The US didn’t supply them to Turkey, a long standing ally to the US and a NATO member, they didn’t gave them to Egypt a lesser reliable ally.

 

[Beny Karachun]

We all know that Russian SAMs wouldn't hit water even if they were to be thrown off a ship, as seen in Syria. And that HAWKs are old and pretty much useless in today's battlefield, against enemies with modern electronic warfare capabilities.

 

[KapitaanAli]

They're not particularly bad systems, but OP is highly exaggerating their capabilities.

But egyptian warships have the best air defense, as shown below.

So what's the problem with that setup? You realize it's temporary since both LHDs were originally destined for Russia and the Russians were going to install their own defensive systems on them, then sanctions hit Russia prior to their delivery and suddenly the two carriers were available for Egypt with the Rafale package without any armament. So until they get their corner-slot guns and missiles (most likely the Russian Pantsir) with the Ka-52 attack helicopters, what's the problem with a temporary solution like adding a pair of chained Avenger-mounted Humvees to the bow and stern of the decks to give it some decent protection? Especially when there is no real threat from anyone in the neighborhood, except a few cretin vermin.

So why do you think it's silly?
