Comparison of Egyptian vs Pakistan Forces

Army :
Pakistan 9 - Egypt 7

------------------Egypt ---------------------------------------------Pakistan-----------------------Result
Active : 778000 vs 550,000 ---------------------- (Egypt)
Reservers : 800000 vs 550,000-------------------------(Egypt)


Tanks : M1 Abrams (1,100) ---------- --------vs-------2,500 (400 reserve)-----------------(Egypt)
Secondary Option (3500+)

APC : 5,000+ vs 900 -----------------------------(Egypt)
Air DEF : Short Range Options vs mSPADA2000 10 Batteries ----------------(PAK)
AirDEF : Purchaser vs Serial Producer 0f weapons shoulderbased ---------(PAK)
MRL : Older units vs Newer Options --------------------------------------(PAK)
Artillery : 600+ vs 400+ --------(Egypt)


Aviation Corp:
Helicopters (Attack) 47 (Apache) vs 51 Cobras (Russian MI-35 Arriving)---------(Egypt)
Transport helicopter 180 vs 230 ---------------------------------------(PAK)
Heavy Transport 26 vs 18 --------------------------------------(Egypt)
Fuel Tankers 0 vs 4 -------------------------------------------(PAK)

Manufacturing Base YES VS YES -------------------(PAK)

Missile Program YES Vs YES More Advanced----(PAK)

WMD NO VS YES ----(PAK)


NAVY : 5 Pakistan - 3 Egypt

FRIGATES------------------9 vs 10 (6 arriving , OHP+ F22P) ----(PAK)
Corvettes------------------2 (4 arriving) vs 0 -----------------------(Egypt)
SUBS------------------4 (2 arriving) vs 5 (6 arriving + nuclear sub program) ----(PAK)
Amphibious Assault------------------19 vs 0 ------------------------(Egypt)

Navy Aviation Jets NO vs YES (Mirage Wing) ----(PAK)
Helicopters 10 vs 18+ -------------------------(PAK)
Patrol Boats 27 vs 12 ------------------------ (Egypt)
Anti Sub 0 vs 9 (P3 Orion level) ----(PAK)


AIR-FORCE 3 Pakistan - Egypt 1
Tier-One jets------------------240 (F16) ----------------------------- vs 130+ (F16/JF17) ----(Egypt)
Tier-Two ------------------ 120 (Mig21/F7/Mirage2000)-------vs 240+ (Mirage/F7 etc) ----(PAK)
Tier- Three ------------------ 53 (Mirage 5)-------------------------vs 80+ (Mirage 5) ----(PAK)

Tactical AWACs /ECW---------8 (Hawk-eye) --------------------vs 8 (Saab/Chinese) ---------------(PAK)
Training crafts Licence Producer vs Serial Production -----(Draw)




Egyptian forces appear to be higher in number on troops , and have more Tanks (Higher quality) and More quantity
High end F16 Model or availability of Apache etc , however they lack behind Pakistan on Tactical weapons like awacs and early warning and P3 orions for Navy to fight battles vs Submarines.

Also appear to have major problems in their Air defenses just like Pakistan , however at lease we have some mid range optiosns and short range shoulder based options.

For Pakistan , the arrival of the Russian Hind Heclicopter and Night hunter will match the capabilities of Egyptian options with Apache etc to some level, and also Block 2 JF17 thunder promises to bridge the gap in tier One option jet planes

Egypt also appear to have better infrastructure in place for manufacturing of Military grade trucks and troops transporations at ground level locally setup operations.


The Egyptian forces are certainly better equipped then Algerian forces

On the whole quite inaccurate and largely irrelevant.

Egyptian upgrade of the M60 A3. Whether this upgrade will be rolled out for all M60s is yet to be announced or confirmed.

Sedki Sobhi oversees the principal phase of combined arms exercise "Baher-19" which is being carried out by forces under the 2nd Army (Date: 30/09/14). When (or if) pictures/videos are made available I will post them.
