Egypt signs $2 billion deal for 50 MiG-35 fighter jets from Russia

[Avicenna]

so Egyptians can be Spanked by Israeliz at any moment of their need, just like lebanon, palistine, syria , iraq and jordan.

Egypt has long been neutralized through non military means.

You may have sold em equipment which are of no use Such as the F-16 with vietnam era sparrows.Meanwhile Israel gets the F-35.Just saying.

I see what you mean. Egyptian F16s are probably of "no use" because US stopped supplying weapons and spares for it after the coup? Serves Egypt right...signed peace deal, and now you cant even get the weapons promised form the peace deal...thats called a LOSE LOSE situation...smh..also, even if you have all the equipment i the world but dont have money to fund a war your military is essentially a toothless tiger.

umm....truth dot com!

congrats egyptians really needed those. but the question is, will those 50 MIg 35 aircraft be able to counter or balance the power equation with israeli F-35 lightening stealth aircraft? that's the key question here.

This questions is Dead on Arrival due to Peace deal..next question pls.

Where is the money coming to Egypt from ?
Inflation is 30 percent and they are building cities and buying weapons.

Probably Saudia.

 

[Shreyas Karambelkar]

Never. The worse thing is the position of Egypt to Israel. Sinai is completely demilitarized, right? So, I don't think the Mig will stand a chance to F-35 on such a range.

Range would not be a problem.Since the aircraft(Single seat) has a maximum internal fuel capacity of 5.2 tons and has a range of 2400kms on internal fuel.The Main problem will be F-116 Block-52s of IAF and ofcourse F-35.

well good for egypt, but sometimes i dont understand ther ariforce strategy, they have typhons,f-16, and now wants russian migs.

 

[aziqbal]

THen Egypt must be diversifying military equipment because the potential for that to happen in the future is not that low...or to get better prices for military equipment.

 

[WarKa DaNG]

Maybe they are buying it for long range attacks, I dont think Migs are that much capable in multirole than F-16

 

[Kaleem.61]

In December 2017, Russian President Vladimir Putin paid a visit to Egypt, during which he agreed to build Egypt’s Al-Dabaa nuclear power plant.

Will it enable Egypt to get nuclear weapons..??
OR
Egypt is already having some..?

This doesn't kill JF-17 not even close. The JF-17 BLOCK III will be game changer for Egypt. It plans to buy it with TOT and also produce lot of its weapons in Egypt. Also Egypt is third biggest user of K-8 Trainer Jets

No need to sell them jf17 . Russians seems okay with sharing their tech with israel ( Egypt) but we should be carefull . Any thing that israel detects will be offloaded to india, who will make us pay for our mistake.
