Shouldn't they be armed?4 beauties escorting the Saudi prince MbS's plane as its approaching Cairo for his 3-day visit to Egypt.
Since when Egypt was in talk for Mi-24?
And how can they "see" Hind's on this pic...
Seems like it's true. Just like the Ka-52s came and needed their rotors assembled.
In an Egyptian hangar.
At this rate... I wouldn't be surprised with Mi-28 showing up someday...
No blue belly? strange...
But blue Landing gear... So the refurbished "opinion" seems right...
Well... We will see... Now that is "out there", maybe more info will pass through...To be perfectly honest with you, I am a bit skeptical of that particular photo especially the bottom color that you mentioned, but who knows at this point. What makes a bit of sense is that perhaps they went with the refurbished Mi-24 option was not only a cost advantage but also timing, since I can see the use of these against the cretins in Sinai, even more so than the Apaches or Alligators because of the transport advantage.
There was also a slight mention of these included in the MiG-35 deal way back when, but it was only a mention of interest and nothing more IIRC.
Do you have the full vid of it?EAF MiG-35s also escorting the crown prince.

As a matter of fact the army chief has just asked Sisi for an extension of the operation's time ..Can't deny that they're doing an outstanding job in these operations. Gotta give them credit for when they do good work since we bash the heck out of them when they screw up. A lot more of the recent filming of some of the real action is much impressive since they're not being told to act for the camera. Once they start acting for the photo op, they seem to loose all sense of professional decorum. It's a most bizarre phenomenon.
Did you see how they found those weapons, especially that heavy machine gun (looks like a 50 cal)? They dug about 3 meters with a backhoe and pulled out all sorts of these weapons, not to mention all the explosives and drugs. Bakhshakha. This is exactly what the doctor of Sinai ordered and it's going to take a lot longer to really cleanse it out. And they should never say this 3 months operation crap. They need to stay there as long as it takes until there are no more weapons, drugs, or cretins left to grab. Then stay even after that for a longer time to keep it clean. This could easily be a 3-year operation (complete) if it's to be done right.
At this rate... I wouldn't be surprised with Mi-28 showing up someday...
