For me what I heard was a cooperation between UAE Israel on drones projects and not on AAM. Then it would be a problem for Egypt to buy them.

And also remember that the BVR missile can be converted to a surface to air missile so you can develop both at once.

The AMRAAM converted to a surface to air missile.

Ramjet AAM is a good idea and possible with a lot of R&D.

NASAMS is good example ​

why you think that it will be a problem?

UAE halcon will develop AAM by itself but other like ramjet technology it will need help, ramjet is big deal brother like French meteor.

It doesn’t need a Ramjet necessarily, the AIM-120D uses a regular motor and achieves ranges over 150km.

And btw, South Africans developed a ramjet powered air to air missile 20 years ago.

@Ghostkiller

Desert-Sting?

Desert-Sting?

Yes, cutaway.

Think this is just a tour of one of the 8 or 9 production hangers they have. Looks like at least 50-100 were being produced during the tour.

Will enable UAE to perform many drone strikes without having to worry about resupply from China.

I am hopeful and optimistic and very excited about REACH-S UCAV and desert sting have range more than other same ammunition.

There is a version with 30km range and 25kg warhead that has a rocket booster that an engineer from Halcon talked about.
