Russia and Egypt are holding their first ever joint naval exercise, strengthening the ties between two states which were once Cold War allies .

The eight-day drills off the Mediterranean Egyptian port of Alexandria, began yesterday , include supply and communication at sea, search operations, all forms of defence at sea and firing exercises.

Russia is contributing the missile cruiser Moskva, corvette Samum, landing ship Alexander Shabalin, tanker Ivan Bubnov and a tugboat, while Egypt is contributing the frigates Taba and Damiyat, the tanker Shatalin, two patrol boats and two F-16 fighters.

I post the whole article in French and (i hope) that @Taygibay could help you with the translation. (He's a master in English compared to me. )

On s’active à Lorient pour achever les modifications de l’ex-Normandie, qui doit être livrée dans deux semaines à la marine égyptienne. La frégate multi-missions (FREMM), initialement destinée à la flotte française, a pour mémoire été achetée par Le Caire, qui souhaite disposer au plus vite d’une frégate moderne. Le bâtiment, dont le contrat de cession a été conclu en février dernier, devrait être livré le 23 juin. Le délai a donc été extrêmement court pour mettre la frégate aux standards égyptiens et former l’équipage, dont l’entrainement va se poursuivre dans les prochains mois. La formation de l’équipage (technique, opérationnelle, maintenance) est effectuée principalement avec DCI et la Marine nationale.


Un contrat de MCO de 5 ans

La FREMM devrait rejoindre l’Egypte en juillet et être la pièce maîtresse du défilé naval allant marquer l’agrandissement du canal de Suez.

On notera qu’en plus de la vente de la frégate, DCNS va également assurer son maintien en condition opérationnelle pendant cinq ans. C’est d’ailleurs la toute première fois, sur le marché export, que l’industriel français signe un contrat de MCO en même temps que le neuvage d’un bâtiment. DCNS va en outre assurer le soutien logistique de la FREMM égyptienne, fournir des pièces rechanges à bord et dans le port base, tout en assurant la maintenance du bâtiment.

Implantation en Egypte

A cet effet, le groupe va s’implanter à Alexandrie. Une présence locale qui lui sera également très utile dans le cadre d’autres projets, actuels et à venir. Avec bien entendu, pour commencer, le programme des quatre corvettes de 2500 tonnes de la famille Gowind commandées par l’Egypte. La tête de série, en cours de construction à Lorient, sera livrée en 2017 et ses trois sisterships réalisés en transfert de technologie par les chantiers égyptiens.

Egypt soon to get its FREMM.

They’re all busy in Lorient to finish the modifications on the ex-Normandie due for delivery in 2 weeks to the Egyptian Navy. The multi-mission frigate ( FREMM ), initially planned for the French fleet was, it should be reminded, bought by Cairo that wanted a modern frigate ASAP. The ship, which transfer contract was signed in February, should be delivered by June 23rd. The timespan was pretty short to put the vessel to Egyptian standards and train its new crew, instruction continuing over the next few months. All aspects of this training ( technical, operational and maintenance ) are mainly brought forth by DCI and the Marine Nationale.



5 year operations maintenance contract

The FREMM should sail for Egypt in July and become the center piece of the naval parade that will mark the re-opening of the New Suez Canal.

On top of the sale, one should add that DCNS will insure its operations maintenance for the next 5 years. It’s the first time on an export contract that the French corporation signs on for both. DCNS will thus service the ship and ensure logistics in its home base as well as all replacements parts on-board.



Presence in Egypt

To warrant success in this function, the group will position a service outlet in Alexandria. This local positioning is likely to spill over for other projects, present or to come. First and foremost, it will serve the four strong 2,500 tons corvettes of the Gowind family already ordered by Cairo. The first of class is under construction in Lorient to be delivered by 2017 and its 3 sister ships will be built under technology transfer by Egyptian yards.
