Some say it is an old picture! but I think these are new 3 batteries, because it is known that Egypt has already some 3 batteries operating and some sources were talking about 6 batteries for Egypt..

*Batteries or battalions..it has to be researched ('cause some say battalions and some talk about batteries!!?)

I believe it is batteries and I do believe the pic I posted was one of the last batches in 2016, IINM. Either way, if they work as they're perceived reputation, they should cover all of Sinai's airspace and then some...

The good news with the system is you can add as many launchers as you want..I think that Egypt needs more than 4 batteries of the mobile Antay 2500 and another 4 batteries of the S-400 to protect strategic assets..

I agree.

The basic decision has been made, and the signing of contracts is contingent on technical issues (technical specifications and armament required).

[Hell NO]

Egypt has history of more than 7000 years. Does this answer your question???

Google the "Ramadan War of 1973" where Egypt sealed the war objectives in 6 hours, to give a lesson to Usrael that was bragging about their blitzkrieg of the 6 day war in 1967.. What followed those first 6 hours where the destruction of the biggest and most vicious defence line built after WW2, namely the Barlev line.. were some of the biggest tank and air force battles of the 20st century, but the end result which was the liberation of Sinai was sealed in the first 6 hours..
Syria was the second front facing Usrael in that war, but Syria couldn't liberate the Golan permanently, still it has fought very bravely, and despite the huge US arms bridge to Usrael, Syria was able to stop all the Usraeli advances towards its mainland..

So now we know what the Alligators will look like...

And then there's the C-130's (even though they're American...)

The An-74's...

The C-295's...

Even the old, Canadian Buffalos...

And some of the MiG-29M/M2's...

There's a reoccurring theme, I just can't figure it out!

This Canon problem should be fixed asap..

The helicopter hit itself?

lol, Never liked the location of that gun, we talked about that on the other thread. They gave it a tiny degree of movement despite it's precarious location (which is crazy), considering it's risky, even without any independent movement of it's own. If the chopper has to turn and point it's nose at the target to aim and if it's firing rapidly and turning vigorously to the right at the same time, it's already risking coming close to the line of fire. Add a small degree of movement to the gun on top of that (and the tapered groove in the body) and that's the result.

That's a limitation the Ka-52 has, unfortunately. They needed the radome space for the radar, the bottom of the radome for the EOS-52 and the gun was left out to find another location. They'll have to extend it further out of the body or push it forward more and remove any independent movement.

I agree with you.. and I think if no left degrees (actually 2 degree to the left)are allowed and it is transferred to the targeting software to take care of it, it will a least solve the same problem as above.. because the outer or down degrees of inclination won't interfere with the helicopter's body at all.. the problem is thus the left movement that is allowed.. and I see it as quite dangerous in some situation and not really needed..All of this do not take anything from the other fantastic abilities of the K-52 Alligator, but this has to be fixed somehow..
