How many delivered now? "approximately"More EAF MiG-35s, F-16s and Mirage 2Ks.
Supposedly there will be an official announcement of the MiG-35s being operational in the EAF during the ceremonies. Hopefully we'll start seeing more pictures of these machines and I truly hope they don't mess that beautiful camo scheme with some tacky Tahya Masr. Menfadlak, Ya Rab!

Spacing is a Problem, that's for sure.
The Sinai events took too many Egyptian life, that's for sure.
Egypt Army could have done a better job, That's for sure.
I understand that many want to see the positive side or at least the Good result, and that is understandable But we have to understand, this isn't some game or every day "normal" news... Young people die everyday BECAUSE of simple rules that wasn't enforced or learned properly, Because of a tactics that wasn't chosen properly by the higher ups...
Egypt is not some Third world Army, that have no Doctrine, No training or no History But with just a better discipline, and the "right" training, We could get way better result and spare the life of many youngster.
IMO, in such events, I'm for a full criticism, if they are "objective" ofc. not just some Insult and such.
As for the Tweet, it was mostly to highlight that many saw such behavior. I also posted answer that was interesting by Egypt Defence review
Methinks it is some sort of grenade launcher.Anyone know what that barrel or muzzle is on the manned turret of the M-60A3? Interesting modification, maybe some type of ATG or even a flamethrower?
Methinks it is some sort of grenade launcher.
As the video from Raytheon suggests, its SLEP for the M-60 gives it an RCWS, which is equipped with a minigun. However, in this case, we see a single thick long barrel. Considering the utility and availability of multiple grenade launchers, maybe even automatic, in COIN operations, I'm willing to vouch for it being that.
looks like a silencer..Mmmm...I would love to agree with you if not for the sole reason that you are one heck of a swell individual, but I must respectfully disagree with the grenade launcher theory because of 2 reasons. 1) typically, grenade launchers on tanks are usually in the 40mm range and their launchers off of tanks almost always look something like this.
2) If you take a closer look at the pic in question, you can see that it looks like the 50 cal machine gun is still there and coming out of the turret, then this housing is attached to it.
That space where you can still see the original gun barrel is probably needed space to allow for up and down movement of the gun, sort of a spacer. That more than likely means that housing is probably something close to what @500 suggested. Either a custom, cooling housing or more likely just simply a dust cover to protect the 50 cal M85 machine gun from all the sand and dust being wiped around from the tank tracks and/or other vehicles.
Another question: anyone know what unit that new and different camo belongs to on the solider to the far right?
Woodland camo?
looks like a silencer..
That cammo might be from a marines unit.. just my guess..
You're right.

Mohamed Salah Included in Egypt’s Squad for World CupLet's go, bring the next one in, got 4 total under this contract and need at least 4 more after that. The speed they put this one together is exceptional, a sign of superb ship-building capabilities in Egypt and should move to another level. Expand that drydock to accommodate 2 ships being built at once. That'll produce more jobs and speed up the process so they can start building frigates also, not just corvettes.
We gotta get past this tragedy, though.
