Egyptian Armed Forces

[Gomig-21]

Actually, after seeing this interview, US has done a lot .... but it cannot promote that to the Egyptian people ... while seeing all hostilities in US media and blocking top notch military equipment to Egypt .

I personally think it's ok for them to block any equipment to us, especially when we get most of those items for free based on the treaty. It's their prerogative since they're the ones paying for all of it. They're more than entitled to pick a chose what we get and what we don't get for whatever reason they have. I don't think that should be contested.

The problem is telling us we can't go and buy other equipment from others and then sanctioning us. That I have a problem with, but never to someone who gives you free stuff. Either we tell them we don't want any more military aid and we'll buy the things we want from them (which then they can really tell us to go to hell if they want) or stop the aid immediately and move completely to the east or to others and buy their stuff.

That's why I said "it's tough to balance the narrative of frustration without sounding ungrateful at the same time."

President El Sisi at the Rashtrapati Bhavan in India.
The Tri Services Guard of Honour included the JAKLI from the Indian Army(Red Turbans), the first regiment to be raised by independent India and one of the most decorated.

^^ Loving it, @Lord Of Gondor. Check out Sisi's military discipline kicking in during his inspection walk LOL! When it's in your blood, it's like anything else, it never goes away. I was waiting for him to do a leg kick followed by a leg slam! lol. Good stuff.

Check this out, something we actually haven't see before is the navy exercising in the Mediterranean (for obvious reasons) during exercise Decisive Maneuver 2020 where they fire a Harpoon Blck2 from one of the subs or ships and hit this training target ship and it sinks! Never seen that degree of action in any of the exercise videos they film.

The video is below the pics. They used a lot of Harpoons during this exercise! Start from minute 3:45. The targets ship being hit and sunk is at 4:16 on.

Put it on full screen, it's much better.

Some recent popup pics on twitter but they aren't recent pics.
M1A1 Abrams out of Factory Helwan 200 where they get assembled and tested. Part of the obstacle course for testing is this ramp.

F-16s with Sparrows and AIM-9s and closest one carrying LANTIRN and Sniper XR pods. Probably escorting the presidential plane.

Rare glimpse of recent exercise involving the EAF's Mi-24V Hinds with a custom air system for the dusty desert environment. Plus it seems they're also operating the President-S ODS self defense system.

Egyptian weapons in human history

History testifies that the flares of civilization began to rise from Egypt for seven thousand years

And museums preserved nothing like it in the World Heritage of civilization


The first organized army in history

The oldest army on the planet

You are talking about writing history

In typical paranoid dictator fashion, sending two-seaters up so that either the front or the back seater can prevent a 'blue-on-blue'. But with the weapons on showing that you ain't that scared...

Nice hit. I have seen something like this during a torpedo test in Iran. Difference is it completely destroyed the target making it disappeared from sea surface.

That's awesome. That was quite a bang, lol. That's a bit different in that is an underwater submarine firing a torpedo, whereas the Egyptian one was a ship-to-ship Harpoon block 2 missile. You can even see it circled in that one photo prior to the hit.

That target ship that was used was an old ship to shore transport platform that they were decommissioning anyway and why not use it as target practice where it will end up being an artificial reef for underwater life.

@AgNoStiC MuSliM or whomever is the moderator for this Arab section, could you kindly clean up the reported posts that don't belong on this thread, please? Thank you.

Some more stills from that video. Looks like the Ka-52 pilots are getting more and more comfortable flying and operating those dual-rotored beasts!

Click images for larger pics.

And @The SC knows this already & @Lord Of Gondor , it's more common to see IAF Mirage 2000 pictures left and right out of India, but with the EAF, for some strange reason these birds are so well-guarded and kept out of the limelight (so to speak) so whenever we get a pic or two that we haven't seen before, we get all excited loool. The first one from below showing a clean EAF Mirage 2K is one I haven't see before. The 2nd one of the pair and one banking to the left is probably from a video but also not seen often IICR.

BTW, a lot of fanboys think there are actually 40 of these that were originally purchased and the reason why photographs are rare and why the EAF hides them so much. But that has never been substantiated or verified except for hearsay.

Brand spanking new pic of EAF Mirage 2000 hot of the presses flying over Sinai.

Impressive ! How many abrams have been assembled so far in Egypt ? Are there more on the way ? Do you know if they're going to be upgraded in the near future ? (To M1A2 or superior version)

Tanks are useless against modern Armies because of UCAVs easly can destroy Tanks
We prefer 100 UCAVs instead of 1.000 Tanks
