What's new

The Algerian Armed Forces.

Local assembly or complete production of all parts like done in Russia ?
Local assembly in the beginning..then a full production complex as in India.

I don't know specifics of a contract, so can't say anything for sure.
Local assembly at the beginning, and then something similar, I guess to India. Since for the time being the only two countries that have the T90's technology transfer..
I will comeback with an article, published few hours ago by Akram Kharief, a specialist on North African defense, on his blog.

Local prodution of T90's would increase army firepower a lot, they should add BMPT production which are more useful in nowadays wars ( COIN/soft targets ).

Posted on 20/02/2015

The information began to circulate in the Russian business press, few months ago, but no official confirmation had been given by the Russian and Algerian authorities. Today business daily, Vedomosti, confirmed that Algeria had signed with the Russian agency Rosoboronexport arms export ,a contract to manifacture under license, T90's heavy tanks. This contract would covers an initial tranch of 200 heavy tanks for a cost a billion dollars. The ANP has ordered twice this tank in 2006 with 185 units followed by another 200 in 2010. In 2013 Algeria had also bought 300 M1M upgrade kits for T72 tanks. About 250 T72 had been previously upgraded to M1M format and another 250 had undergone modernization incorporating the Ukrainian AG format. At the end of this program, the army will have about 1500 tanks of the last generation, capable of firing missiles and smart munitions , equipped the most the most advanced protection systems with the ability to operate day and night in all weather conditions. The assembly in Algeria of T90, also allows the integration of Western technologies produced locally, such as night vision and fire control systems.
Algeria is the second country after India to manufacture under license the T90.

"Rosoboronexport" signed last year a contract for the licensed production in Algeria about 200 main battle tanks T-90, Told "Vedomosti" two people of the Russian Military-Industrial complex. ACCORDING to Them, the assembly of Russian Tanks Will be running kits at the Tank Repair Plant Algerian Armed Forces WHO HAD Previously Engaged in Repair of armored Vehicles. The Representative of "Rosoboronexport" Declined to Comment.

ACCORDING to the Editor of Moscow Defense Brief Mikhail Barabanov, the value of the licensed assembly of 200 tanks T- 90 can be estimated at approximately $ 1 billion. ACCORDING to the number of Supplied Tanks such A Contract, ACCORDING to Barabanova is Currently One of the Largest, and Possibly the World's Largest export Contract for main battle Tanks. In 2010, Algeria has concluded with "Rosoboronexport" contract for the supply of 185 ready -made T-90 Tanks, the Execution of Which has so far Been completed. In addition, in 2013, Algeria has ordered from Russia kits for modernization set in Soviet times about 300 T-72 Tanks.

Politics of Algeria to Move from Direct purchases of Tanks in Russia to Their assembly Under License at ITS own Plant is Comparable with the Indian Approach to Military-Technical Cooperation with Russia. In 2001, India signed its first contract for the supply of 124 ready-made T-90 tanks and 186 kits for the assembly of These Tanks in India. After the Implementation of These Agreements in 2004, a contract was signed for the licensed production in India about 1,000 T-90 tanks, but since licensed production was mastered with delays in 2007 were entered into additional contracts for the supply of another 124 tanks and kits ready for assembly another 223 Machines.

In addition, the T-90 tanks were exported to Azerbaijan (100 units, deliveries were completed in 2014), Uganda (44 machines, supplies ended a few years ago ) and Turkmenistan (6 tanks were delivered in 2009). Deliveries of the T-90 Russian Armed Forces has been completed in 2011. At various times, been considered, but for various reasons have not been implemented plans for the supply of T-90 tanks to Saudi Arabia, Libya, Syria, and now, according to a person close to the "Rosoboronexport", negotiating the possible supply T-90 tanks in Iraq.

SU 34 are expected to arrive within few months and Mi28N by the end of the year..The AAF has in her sight the SU35 to replace the MIG29s...But this year is going to be the year of the Navy with 5 crafts (one Meko, one BDSL, 3 C28A) joining the existing force.

And what is Navy existing force ?
 
He wanted to know today's number of vessels in the QBJ...


It is very hard to say, since some of the units are docked, but continuously maintained and upgraded as the OSA for example. The number of 60 units is close to reality.
I wanted more detail How many are of those are Frigates and Corvettes and Missile boats and others ? also How much life they have now ?

Really hard to say..To put a forward number will be a pure speculation, since the fact of discussing the subject is still taboo in Algeria, and we are not going to see a change in the near future.
But all the vessels acquired before the nineties have gone a full upgrade, with new radars, communication, missiles and are fully integrated with armed component of the defences forces..The upgrade gives the QJB the capability to operate with NATO, without being a member.
The idea behind this modernisation is to create 3 to 4 battle groups along with US navy model.
