The weapon systems that Belarus offered to Egypt with the possibility of technology transfer and local manufacture

[The SC]

In fact more than 170 scientific, technical and innovative products as well as the latest defence technologies were offered to Egypt with TOT and JVs..13 contracts were signed as a start..

Among them some IT products like the integrated border security system and the KIPOD cloud-based intelligent video surveillance platform..

KIPOD AI cloud-based intelligent video analytics surveillance platform

This product is the software platform of the country’s public safety monitoring system. The platform allows you to search for people and vehicles in real time, recognize faces and license plate numbers, identify abandoned objects and crowds, traffic violations.


Bogomol SPATMS self-propelled remotely controlled tracked mini-chassis able to move on a cross-country terrain.. is designed for twenty-four-hour destruction of fortified ground targets, tanks, armored vehicles and hovered helicopters in automated mode. Remote control of the vehicle can be by radio channel, wires or laser beam.,Distance of remote control up to 5000 (m)

Equipment and electrochemical technology of constructing 3D metal interconnections of integrated circuits..ToT

Connection of silicon crystals on the principle of 3D metal interconnections can significantly reduce the final cost and increase the reliability of finished products.

As a result, this technology makes it possible to combine digital and analog circuits, memory and microelectromechanical systems produced using various technologies in one case.

Beware of their shit, Ukraine's BTR4 SUCKED

This is Belarus ..silly you.. HaHaHa!
Ukraine does better in missiles..

Beware of their shit, Ukraine's BTR4 SUCKED

I agree.. The eastern countries usually do sell things that doesn't match the expectation and it is not due to wrong intention but there industries just not that developed and Egypt herself produce better locally currently but nonetheless if it includes TOT than it is worth the time to atleast check it out unless they are paying small quantity while not over-spending

Egypt begins implementing a plan to manufacture a 100% Egyptian integrated air defense system.

This is one of the best deals with ToT Egypt had recently..Getting the missile engine, the seeker, and the AESA radar, This is the most prominent tech.. but when one sees that all the systems' components technologies are transferred it is just awesome..

No doubt about it. They're doing what we've always wanted to see and always talked about ToT with many of these weapon's systems which as everyone knows, is not an easy thing to get the supplying nation to give up that tech after decades of super hard work, money and development. That kinda thing is always what has made certain system almost impossible to get a grip on just the concept of how they're created and/or work.

Really great stuff, SC, bro. Thank you for all the work you do here and make it so easy for us to just read and learn and absorb. Just want to let you know how grateful I -- and I'm sure many others -- are for all this hard work you do, bro. Teslam edak w'2nek ya habib alby enta!

BTW, that one video on the Ka-52K mentions the development and testing phase to be completed sometime in the year 2022. That might not answer the full question as to where the Egyptian Navy contract stands at the moment in relation to the modifications they've done on the land-based helos, but at least it gives us some sense of where the Russians are with that model's timing.

There are great JVs in the civilian fields too..Very practical..

The RPG Sapphire multipurpose grenade launcher system

“Sapphire” is a light rocket-propelled grenade launcher with an unguided grenade, equipped with a multipurpose warhead (CW) and a digital fire control device (FCD), which can significantly increase fire accuracy and reduce the cost of ammunition.

It is designed to combat modern main battle tanks, armored, light armored and non-armored targets, destruct enemy manpower with body armor (BA) located in bunkers, earth-and-timber emplacements, light field-type shelters, urban and rural structures. The dimensions and weight of the launcher allow the personnel to easily move along connecting trenches and embark on any military vehicles.

A distinctive feature of the grenade launcher is the ability to fire from small-sized sheltered areas due to small caliber and smooth start of a rocket-propelled grenade. As a result, the developed 60 mm launcher is as efficient as heavier models of this class of 90-105 mm caliber, but it also outperforms such models in firing quality, namely has better pointblank firing distance.


RPG Sapphire technical specifications:

Calibre – 60 mm

Weight – 4 kg

Length – 750 mm

Direct shot range – 150 m

Maximum sight shooting range – 400 m

The maximum firing range – 1,000 m.

Belarus should be very good for acquiring technology although the RPG technology mentioned above is very simple.

Egypt should work on its own or work with close nations to develop technology that is feasible. ToT is possible but Belarus is fundamentally not a very close nation to Egypt so there are some minor risks involved.


Halcon alone could probably develop that in a few months tops and I can't imagine Egypt would have a hard time either.

I think the main reason for the procrastination (if that's even the right word in this case) or the lack of wanting to develop a new and better RPG or even a complete and indigenous system, considering how long the Egyptian army has been using that weapon for, is that just like the Maadi Misr, they were building copies of the mother of all RPGs in the Russian one. Right along with the hundreds of AK-47 copies they built under the domestic name of Maadi (which BTW were some of the best copies ever built especially the ones built in the 80's) they were also making copies of the Russian RPG to sustain their needs and replace the Russian ones that were getting used up.

So they kinda didn't put that technology as a high priority because of that ability to pump out hundreds of thousands of copies of the original one to fulfill their needs.

That line of thinking sucks, no question about it and luckily for everyone, a new boss with the right way of thinking has altered the minds of all those involved including seeing the need to keep up with the developing tech as in all these newer systems are loaded with incredible features that make them easier to operate, more lethal and just all around better. I guess the only thing we can say is - better late than never!

I do wonder if the integrated Egyptian air defense system will be indigenous or have significant foreign help.

It had been and still indigenous for a long time..

Egypt has its own:

- Automation means system of central control post of Air Force and Air Defense..The system is intended to be used at AF and AD command posts at operational and tactical levels.

- Mobile automated command post of anti-aircraft missile brigade..The system is intended to be used at command posts of SAM brigades in order to control fire of SAM divisions equipped with various types of ADMS while they implement tasks on destruction of air assault weapons.

- Mobile automated command post of air base.. The system is intended to be used by command posts of air units and bases for automated control over actions of sub-units and crews of fighter and assault aircraft during operation planning, air patrolling and combat actions.

- Aviation control and guidance post ..The system is intended to be used by guidance posts for the purpose of automated control over aviation systems when guiding them to air and ground targets during en-route flights and during air patrol.

Interaction with:
• Higher command post;
• Control and guidance post;
• Radar information sources;
• Radio stations of the command control radio link;
• Ground-based air communication system;
• Air surveillance aircraft system.

- Mobile automated command post of radio-technical battalion.. The system is intended to be used at control posts of electronic reconnaissance units (radar platoons, companies, battalions) for automatic collection, processing, integration and display of radar data from radars and mobile radio altimeters, friend-or-foe identification of targets and output of radar data to the higher command post.

...And much more..


* The point here is the transfer of technology from basic to advanced and local production .. after that, one can improve, upgrade and innovate with own brains and capabilities..
