The Egyptian Air Defense has a wide range of air defense systems capable of handling cruise missiles, aerial projectiles and high-precision smart munitions as follows:
1) The Russian Tor-M2E system is one of the most powerful and best short-range air defense systems in the world with the ability to strike cruise missiles, bombs, smart munitions, ballistic missiles, fighter aircraft, helicopters and unmanned aerial vehicles in ranges of up to 15 km and up to 10 km..
2) The US Avenger system can intercept cruise missiles and air threats at low altitude and very low range of 8 km.
3) Chaparral American system and can respond to mobile missiles and air threats at low altitudes and very low and a range of 9 km.
4) The French-developed Crotale system can intercept cruise missiles and air threats at very low and very low altitudes with a range of 11 km.
5) ZSU-23-4M4 Russian Shilka developed from its old versions to increase the effectiveness of the engagement with 23 mm artillery fire radar-guided and integrated with four short-range SA-18 Igla missiles to increase the effectiveness of the engagement against air threats and densities, especially against cruise missiles and approaching air targets .
6) Amoun Skyguard short-medium-range rocket-propelled artillery with AIM-7M Sparrow interceptors up to 26 km and air-to-surface Oerlikon 35mm artillery equipped with AHEAD launchers designed to intercept and destroy cruise missiles and various aerial projectiles.
7) The Buk-M2E system is the best medium-range air defense system in the world with the capability to strike tactical ballistic missiles (absolute range of 200-300 km, such as rockets fired from rocket launchers), cruise missiles, anti-radar missiles and fighter aircraft in operations up to 45 Km and altitude up to 25 km with massive immunity against electronic jamming systems, as well as .
8) The S-300VM (Antey-2500) is the most recently launched S-300 system capable of striking short-range and medium-range ballistic missiles (launch ranges of up to 2500 km), cruise missiles and high-altitude aircraft with a range of 250 : 350 km against the aircraft and the maximum height of up to 30 km and the range of radar detection of 500 km with enormous immunity against various electronic jamming systems and is owned by the Egyptian Air Defense with 4 batteries.
9) Hand-held rocket such as Falcon Eye (Sam 7 Developer) - Stinger - SA-18 Igla - SA-24 Igla S
10) Air defense and early warning systems on warships provide direct support to air defense forces on the ground in the event of an aerial attack by cruise missiles and smart munitions from the direction of the sea.
11) KTM Kineto Tracking US Model 433. It has the ability to track objects and targets flying at high speed with data on space, position and time information TSPI Time, Space & Position Information with high precision. It comes equipped with Unmanned, Manned / Manual Control. It is a powerful addition to the Egyptian Air Defense to detect and track stealth aircrafts and unmanned aerial vehicles, especially those at low and very low altitudes.
12) Pechora-2M system, which Egypt owns in large numbers up to 70 batteries and equipped with an electronic warfare system to neutralize anti-radar missiles
13) Visual assisted observation elements deployed along the country's borders and coasts, located in their towers, equipped with binoculars and electric and radio cameras to detect very low-altitude flying targets such as cruise missiles
14) IRIS-T SLM system Egypt is the first country to receive it and can intercept cruise missiles with a range of 40 km and an altitude of 20 km
The previous systems contain radars capable of detecting and tracking cruise missiles and low-radar observable aerial targets, and equipped with electrostatic and thermal systems that ensure the ability to monitor, detect and engage in conditions of dense electronic warfare..These systems are also linked to specialized stations for early warning and aerial monitoring in various fields, including, but not limited to:
- US TPS-59 radars, three-dimensional ESA radars, are capable of providing early warning against ballistic missiles, missiles and aircraft with a range of 740 km and a maximum altitude of 300 km.
- Commander-SL of Britain, a three-dimensional radar capable of providing early warning against cruise missiles and drones and various weapons launched by air from long distances and aircraft at a range of 470 km and a maximum height of 30 km.
- Protivnik-GE radars from Russia are three-dimensional radars capable of providing early warning against strategic aircraft, fighters, ballistic missiles, cruise missiles and even low-velocity targets. They range from 480 km to 200 km.
- SPS-48 radars from the United States are three-dimensional radars with a range of 460 km and a maximum height of 30 km
- AN / MPQ-64F1 Improved Sentinel radars from the United States, 3D radars capable of detecting and tracking low-altitude airborne targets such as cruise missiles and drones and providing all information and coordinates for short-range air defense systems with a range of 75 km, It is one of the main components of the missile threat response system.
Early warning and intercepting cruise missiles at the appropriate time:
1) The predominance is for those who possess the information - Intelligence and reconnaissance elements behind the enemy lines, and the various means of surveillance in general (unmanned aircraft - satellites - reconnaissance aircraft) is a crucial factor and vital to the information it can provide about the attack before it occurs from the details of the aircraft and the quality The timing of the attack, the base from which it will be launched, the flight route and the potential and confirmed targets, providing sufficient background and know-how to deal with the attack and thwart it, re-move and concentrate forces, and erect false targets and ambushes to counteract the hostile attack.
2) The reconnaissance and eye observation stations spread along the Egyptian coasts and borders provide the optical and thermal detection feature of the air threats at very low altitudes, which are difficult to detect by radar.
3) Early warning radars to monitor low-altitude low radar signature threats including cruise missiles, as well as to cover low and very low altitudes, these radars are set in high altitude areas such as mountains, plateaus and constructions for these purposes, and are also important for detecting hostile flight at such altitudes.
4) AWACS Egypt has 9 E2C -Falcon Eye early-warning aircraft, which is the main mind and engine of air defense work to counter cruise missiles because of its enormous radar capability to detect low-altitude and very low-altitude missiles from sufficient distances which is difficult for land based radars to detect because of earth's spherical factors.
5) Naval radars and early warning systems and detection, which is the first line of defense of the coasts.
