If a picture is worth a thousand words, this one shows the IDF soldiers scope of happiness after Sadat accepted the ceasefire when their main forces were trapped in the Deversoir on the West side of Sinai..They are holding Sadat picture not Golda Meir's or Nixon's..
You may conclude who won the 1973 war, even in the eyes of the extremely arrogant IDF soldiers..

Russia ready to deliver first Egyptian Ka-52s
Thursday, 02 February 2017
Russian Helicopters will soon deliver the first Ka-52 Alligator attack helicopters to Egypt.
Russian Helicopters on 31 January said one of its subsidiaries – Progress Arsenyev Aviation Company, which is part of State Corporation Rostec, has produced this year’s first Ka-52 Alligator.
“The helicopter built at Progress has already successfully and fully completed all ground and flight tests required by the technical terms and conditions of the government contract. Several more rotorcraft bodies of the new helicopters are at their final assembly point at Arsenyev. In February, another batch of Ka-52 helicopters will be transferred to their operators,” Russian helicopters said.
The first batch of Alligators scheduled for delivery in 2017 per government contract terms was transferred to the Russian Ministry of Defense ahead of schedule in December last year. In 2017, production of these helicopters will be more than doubled as some will be headed overseas, Russian Helicopters said. “The first experimental unit for a foreign customer has already been assembled and is successfully passing all tests as planned.” While not specifically mentioning Egypt, the Ka-52 has no other known foreign orders except for the North African country.
"We took all necessary organizational and technological steps at Progress to expand production in view of the forthcoming volume increase. Today, the plant is ready to produce world-class Ka-52 helicopters in a timely manner, for the Ministry of Defense, as well as for foreign customers," said Russian Helicopters Deputy CEO for Sales Vladislav Savelyev.
Russia confirmed the sale of 46 Ka-52Ks to Egypt in December 2015. Russian Helicopters Director-General Alexander Mikheyev said deliveries to Egypt are expected to occur in 2017.
The Ka-52 Alligator is a development of the Ka-50 Black Shark, featuring two crew side-by-side in a new nose housing additional avionics. The Ka-52 is in service with the Russian Air Force, which has ordered 146 Ka-52s while Russian naval aviation will receive 32 navalised Ka-52Ks. Production began in 2008.
The helicopter is fitted with four underwing hardpoints capable of carrying 80/120 mm air-to-surface rockets, 9A4172 Vikhr-M (AT-12) laser-guided air-to-surface missiles, Igla or R-73 (AA-11 'Archer') air-to-air missiles, Kh-25MP (AS-12 'Kegler') anti-radiation missiles and FAB-500 bombs. Fixed armament comprises a 30 mm 2A42 gun with up to 240 rounds of ammunition.
Egypt will fly its Ka-52s off its Mistral class landing helicopter dock vessels – these were handed over to Egypt in June and September 2016. As they were originally destined for Russia, they were designed to accommodate the Ka-52K helicopter. Each vessel can operate 16 helicopters.
