So the training is at the military academy for officers or also soldiers ? understandable if only for officers as training large amounts of soldiers requires huge capacity

Officers are trained at the Military Academy, there may be soldiers training elsehwere but I'm not privy to any info on that. It takes three to four years to produce an Officer in Egypt for some reason, so it's a long term commitment.
