Parts of the indigenous EGB-2 500 pound laser guided bomb, no specifications are known, however given the weight I would guess it is similar to the Paveway operated by the Egyptian Air Force.

We're they bought from Saudi MIC or straight from Germany? The G-36 family is under licensed production in KSA.

This gives me an idea I'll post some Saud defense industry things in the Saudi pictures part.

I believe we first imported the rifle in 2003 for use by the Interior Ministry (some ended up in Libya used by Gaddafis forces, which is perplexing). This picture is actually old (from about two years ago) so it may have been procured alongside the Type-209 subs, either way there's no real way I can confidently determine their source.

When are we gonna watch the whole documentary ?

They photoshooped the Apaches into this picture, I have no idea why they would do that though.
