I think as of right now they need to form an alliance with somalia and eriteria to counter them.
Well let's see the dam is probably protected by anti aircraft batteries.
The kemet airforce has a numerical superiority over ethiopia with jets like f-16's,mirages and rafales. Ethiopia has less than 20 su-27. Kemet is the Africa's most battle tested offensive army.They can take out that dam in a day but then they would lose support from the US and the chinese are also gonna react since the ethipions borrowed the money from them to build the dam.

IDEX 2017: MSPV confirms large Egyptian order

The Dubai-based company Minerva Special Purpose Vehicles (MSPV) confirmed during IDEX 2017 held in Abu Dhabi that it is building large numbers of Panthera T6 light armoured vehicles for Egypt.
The Panthera T6 was first seen in May 2014 during an Egyptian military parade. Later that year the Arabic-language Security and Defence Arabia website published an article quoting the executive director of the Egyptian company Eagles Defence International Systems (EDIS) as saying it was producing the Panthera T6, as well as the larger members of the Panthera family: the S10 and K10CMD.
Engineer Mohamed Emad el-Kabbany, MSPV's assistant manager for sales and business development, told Jane's at IDEX that EDIS is the company's Egyptian agent. He said he could not reveal exactly how many vehicles were ordered by Egypt, but it is in the region of 2,000-3,000 Panthera T6 three-door vehicles for both the Egyptian Army and National Police.
The T6 is a Toyota Land Cruiser 79-series vehicle that has had its shell removed and a new armoured body fitted, making it an affordable option. The three door version has seats for six personnel in the back in addition to the two up front and can be armed with a machine gun in a ring-mount.
The vehicle has been seen in the Sinai Peninsula, where the Egyptian Army is trying to suppress the local branch of the Islamic State militant group.
Despite this challenging operational environment, MSPV has received "no big complaints" about the vehicle from the Egyptians, according to Kabbany, who noted that the T6's relatively small size is an advantage in certain tactical situations.

IOMAX moves to secure Egyptian Archangel sale from competitor

IOMAX has held high-level talks with the Egyptian Ministry of Defence (MoD) to safeguard an expected sale of armed turboprop aircraft from being poached by its Air Tractor and L3 Technologies competitors, a company official told Jane's.
The North Carolina-based IOMAX has for some months been negotiating with the Egyptian MoD to support and upgrade 12 AT-802s that have been gifted by the United Arab Emirates (UAE), at the same time as looking to sell the country 10 of its latest Archangel Block 2 Border Patrol Aircraft (BPA). However, emergency talks have been held after IOMAX discovered that L3 was trying to use the US government to have Egypt buy the AT-802L that it has developed with Air Tractor instead.
"We have found that Air Tractor and L3 have been misrepresenting their product in Egypt, but luckily we found this out before it had gone through the [Defense Security Cooperation Agency] DSCA, the State Department and the [US Air Force] USAF [approval process]. We have now corrected that narrative, and are in the final stages of discussions with the Egyptians for the sale of the Archangel," the IOMAX official told Jane's.
According to the official, Air Tractor and L3 had been looking to sell their AT-802L into Egypt on the basis that it was already fielded and in service with the UAE, whereas in fact this is the IOMAX AT-802 and its successor Archangel. "To say the Egyptians were dismayed when they realised Air Tractor and L3 had never built or much less fielded an armed AT-802, and in addition were not the ones who build the current Archangel, would not be an overstatement," he said.
Although IOMAX told Jane's that it had corrected the narrative with the Egyptians, it noted that this was not before the country's MoD had submitted a sole source letter of recommendation (LOR) request to the US government for the AT-802L based on its misunderstanding of the situation.

The Tunisian is right in his statement, Egypt is powerless and has no capability to militarily oppose Ethiopia from damming the Nile..
and she lost all of them....And today as bulimic as her army is, she is of no help to the Sauds in Yemen and that certainly a tall tell of her capability to conduct and win any future war..
