The German company Diehl reveals the first image of the new Egyptian air defense system IRIS-T SLM

So they have this Husky Tactical Support vehicle that comes in and detects mined with that forklift mounted penetrating radar and once they find the mines, they mark them with flags and then they bring in that tracked mine sweeper you asked about. It has that rake to dig and scoop out the sand and mines without them going off and dispose of them properly. And in case one does go off, the turret has that armor and cage shield to protect the gunner and gun.

They also have these M728s which are combat engineering vehicles fitted with mine sweeping rakes like the tracked minesweeper in that pic you asked about.

They have a huge inventory of very cool combat engineering vehicles and equipment to work with the very versatile desert sand and rocks etc. The ones I showed were purchased in the 90s and they still have them, but they've since upgraded a lot of them to much newer and modern engineering vehicles.

Do you remember when Egypt was negotiating for the Kodiak Armoured Engineer Vehicle (AEV3)

Construction of the mine clearance tank​

Kodiak was initially considered to be based on the Leopard 1 MBT but, after in-depth study, the Leopard 2 was found to be more suitable to be converted into an AEV. The surplus Leopard 2 MBTs supplied by the Swiss Army are rebuilt and given the shape of multifunction armoured engineer vehicle.

These are temporary alternatives until the maturity of the st100, and for the record, the Chinese company has a percentage of manufacturing with this Chinese company Norinco

Your words are correct. I hope to benefit from the hull of the T55/T65, on which a combat tower or anti-armor missiles are mounted. We need large quantities of them for armored ambushes due to the nature of the central Sinai region.View attachment 832008

iam im love with the ST series and the temsah 4
what is this an alien laser weapon on a t55 lol

I think it is for the protection of the tower or to protect someone .

Translation :
From the exhibition of the Armed Forces Research Institute
The Egyptian electronic mine appears
It works against tanks and vehicles. It is equipped with an electromagnetic sensor and an infrared sensor that detonates itself under the tank’s belly or under the track. It can penetrate 14 cm from a distance of half a meter.
Equipped with a self-detonating ability to self-destruct after a specified period of time has passed and the minefield is cleared.

I do. I don't remember if they did come up with an agreement and purchased any of them, do you know?

BTW, pause the video @ minute 2:47 and take a look at the camo scheme of those two MiG-29M/M2s and tell me what you think. This is obviously in Egypt which makes it even more of a head-scratcher.

F-16D block 52. If they have the Pratt & Whitney engines, then they're block-52. If they have the GE engines, then they're block 50. Interesting that the EAF chose the P&W engines on these jets since the majority of the block 40s and upgraded block 32s have the GE engines. There was a rumor going around that the GE engines were a bit easier to maintain while offering the same performance as the P&Ws, which made this choice rather interesting. Also knowing that this was going to be the last F-16 acquisition makes it even stranger that they would change engine models.

F-16D block 40, a rare pic sequence of an EAF viper firing a Sparrow missile, but also how the Tahya Misr is in black. First time I've seen that. It's always been in white IIRC.

On the fly Abrams engine replacement!

IRST-SLM batteries all ready for delivery to Egypt. Judging by the camo scheme, they don't plan on using those in open desert areas. These are for more likely areas that border desert sand and fertile land, possibly near Port Said or just on the periphery of the Nile Delta.

do u have a photo of the EG KA-52 carrying vikhirs?

I don't, but I think that can be found if I remember correctly, one of Sisi's visits to one of the bases a few years ago had the Ka-52 with all its weapons on display while carrying a bunch on its winglets. When I get some time I'll look for it.

Are we sure the Vikr missile part of the EAF ka-52 inventory? Now that I remember, the pic I was referring to showed the Kh-35 mounted on the EAF Ka-52. Don't remember seeing any Vikrs.

I'd like to see a pic of them carrying an R-73/74 like they claim they can. That would be something to get a fighter (or even another helo) shot down with that short range, high boresight air to air missile.

The pics you sent have the vikhir hardpoints installed with no vikhirs

Any idea what these are? Atakas?

Not sure what happened to the Ka-52K tender the EAF/EN signed with Kamov for something like 32 Katrans to equip the Mistrals. I know there was a glitch in the program that had to shut down manufacturing for a little while, but it has since been back up and running by 2019. If they end up going through with that potential order, they'd certainly equip them with Vikhrs.

This bad Larry Katran carrying 6 Ataka, 6 Vikhr and 2 B-8V20A launchers for 20 S-8 rockets each

They were in advanced negotiation about the TOT of the AEV 3 Kodiak vehicles..

Why a head-scratcher bro..the Mig-29 M/M2 came in the two camos.. the desert one and the naval type.. since the start.. or you got used to see only the naval camo..?

i still dont understand why are they still not integration communication systems into their helmets are they short of money or something

This is a development of the T55 to carry ammunition for towed and self-propelled guns. Implementation of Egyptian armored vehicles manufacturing and repair workshops.
