What's new

Egyptian Armed Forces

There must be private sector companies in the military industry, but civil companies give anyone a project outside the army and look at the extent of corruption in the project
 
that being said relyng on themselves to design weaponary is stupid
They are working with Germany, Serbia, Belorussia, South Korea, the US, Russia, China, France, Spain, the UAE and many many more for designing Egyptian potent weapons..That is far from being alone or stupid..

I was the one who talked about it in the Italian forum

You da man!

The armament deals are separate from the supply of the dismantled systems, and the company bears an amount of 145 million euros to manufacture and install them on Galala and Berenice, and it began in Galala because it is the first to enter the service

It's been a long time, though. Did they say it was going to get the 145 milion Euros worth of armament? Or are we just guessing based on rumors? I'm asking because the Italians had to do the same thing the French did when they handed over the Aquitaine. They took out a lot of sensitive and custom designed systems, particulary the jamming and EW suites.

These are all the systems the Italianos took out:

"Some sensitive equipment was deleted from the original Italian design, including the EW suite’s jammers, NETTUNO-4100 RECM system and Thales Altesse CESM equipment. SATCOM antennas were also removed from the communication suite."

It's quite possible they're going back to have Fincantieri install all those systems but customized for the EN. Unless they said it was specifically for the installation of the VLS SAMs and torpedoes. Those should've been already in there as they're critical elements of the ship's self-defense and it should never be at sea without either of those. Hence why they mounted the 2 Avengers on the Mistrals. They did that almost right away because of the same reason.

what are they iinstalling

man the berghamini is just good looking and heavily armed with jammers just look at it its like a floating data center with missiles.

It's a work of art. I think what does it is the radar & comms tower with the spherical shroud for the KRONOS Grand Naval PESA radar. No other frigate has a similar towering tower like that with a huge ball on top. It seems like a much better design than that spinning pyramid-like shaped radar on the French FREMM Aquitaine. This really gives it that beefy strong look as well as the shape of the stealth hull.

So many features along with the fact that it's a GPF (General Purpose Frigate) and not just an ASW (anti-ship) AVT Land Attack.

This is one of the terms of the contract. An amount of 145 million euros is allocated for the systems that have been removed, and it is borne by the Italian company. Leonardo is the one who manufactures this equipment. The Nitto systems have been removed from all parts.
 
They are working with Germany, Serbia, Belorussia, South Korea, the US, Russia, China, France, Spain, the UAE and many many more for designing Egyptian potent weapons..That is far from being alone or stupid..
no local weapons should be designed by private investors but i doubt they have capability other than imut

i watched the episode i saw these guys and wow 777 is just another breed
 
What kind of missiles and bombs the K8 can carry?
Isn't it that we have a Show Team made from K8 fleet?

Not sure about the weapons, but they probably carry some of the earlier PL series of missiles that are in EAF inventory, and they also have been seen with those rocket pods.

And yes, the Silver Stars aerobatic team perform the airshows. Same with the Pakistani Air Force. The Saudis use the BAE Hawk, I believe.
