Licensed assembly of Russian tanks T-90S / SK in Egypt is scheduled to begin in the fourth quarter of 2019, reports bmpd with reference to www.menadefense.net.





According to the resource, the Egyptian enterprise must assemble “400 T-90С / СК tanks, of which 200 will be supplied from the Russian Federation in the form of conventional vehicle sets (SKD), and also 200 - in the form of CKD sets, providing for the welding and assembly of some elements (corps and towers) ".

The build program is designed for 2019-2026 years. The build rate is 50 tanks per year.

Earlier it was reported that in the annual report of Uralvagonzavod for 2016, the list of priority areas of military-technical cooperation included “work on a project to create an enterprise for the licensed assembly of T-90С / СК tanks at the customer“ 818 ”(Egypt)”.

Reference bmpd: “Under an agreement with the United States, the Egyptian tank plant No. 1992 in Helwan is licensed to assemble the M200-XXNXX Abrams tanks from vehicle sets, which are supplied by the US against US military aid, at the Egyptian tank. From the 1 of the year to the present, the US has financed the supply of 1 vehicle sets to Egypt (the first 1992 SKD level and the rest CKD levels of different degrees of localization. Earlier, Egypt’s plans included the release of 1105-75 tanks MXNUMHA1300, but at present, the prospects for continuing to build these tanks are not quite definite, however, apparently, will continue.

      Well, knowing how the Egyptians work in mechanical engineering, one can quite confidently predict that, along with the machine kits, we should also send specialists and equipment there. And maybe it will be like in India, they themselves will not be taken out to observe the necessary level of quality and the contract will be reviewed in favor of the supply of finished tanks. In any case, 400 Tanks is a very large order, congratulations to RosOboronExport.

            In the press about recent times and our military contracts, the information is not very:
            - we supply modern aircraft of Indonesia in exchange for palm oil and obligations to invest in the economy of Indonesia
            - we supply S-400 Turkey with our credit and the obligation to organize production there
            - Modern ships of India and we commit ourselves to invest a third of the contract for the construction of a new shipyard there.

        Until now, the current Russian-Iranian (Persian) agreement 1921 is considered.

        According to it, Russia opposes foreign troops on the territory of Iran, and can also send troops into Iranian territory to protect its national interests.
        It was this treaty the USSR took advantage of when Iran was occupied in August by 1941.

        Based on this, in principle, the West will be able to limit itself exclusively to air operations, as ground invasion to allow Russia to supply weapons to the Persians despite the sanctions.

        Iran is not used yet so as not to strain Israel and the Saudis ... because the states will not only raise such a high about a nuclear deal ... And so all Middle Eastern buyers will be provided with Uralvagonzavod products laughing

          I dare to suggest that Egypt will have the closest armed conflict with Sudan. Between Sudan and Egypt for 120 for years there has been a dispute over the ownership of the so-called. "The triangle of Halaib".
          In 1899, the UK and Egypt declared Sudan their initial. The northern border of the country was established along the 22 parallel, the city of Halaib formally fell to Egypt. In 1902, England unilaterally changed the border, transferring the "triangle" to Sudan. 12 November 1955, Sudan gained independence. In 1958, Egypt captured the area of ​​Halaib. Then the "triangle" was given to the use of Sudan. In 1992, Sudan caused extreme dissatisfaction with Egypt, giving the coast of the "triangle" to the concession of the Canadian oil company International Petroleum Corporation. In 1993 — 1994, there were armed clashes on the border of Egypt and Sudan. In 1995, Egypt sent troops to the region and took control of all the disputed lands, with the exception of the city of Halaib. In 2000, Sudan withdrew troops from Halaib, the lands were completely under Egyptian control.
          A triangle there is not frail - more than 20 thousand square meters. km

              The fact is that Egypt is very important for the "national security interests" of the United States, as it controls the Suez Canal, through which up to 8% of all maritime traffic passes annually. The Suez Canal accelerates the passage of ships of the US Navy, following from the Mediterranean to the Persian Gulf and back. In other words, this communication line provides connectivity to US military fleets operating in the Indian Ocean and the Mediterranean. The Treaty of Egypt with Israel 1979 of the year remains one of the most significant diplomatic achievements of the United States. To involve Egypt in an alliance with the United States, the Americans used the mechanism of annual economic and military aid. Let me give you some numbers for reference. From 1946 to 2016, the United States provided Egypt with external aid worth $ 77,4 billion (excluding inflation). This amount includes US military aid to Egypt.
              US military aid to Egypt goes to finance the purchase of US weapons systems and pay for the necessary services of US military contractors.
              Military aid to Egypt was first provided to the United States in the year of the Egyptian Campaign Agreement with Israel, and already in 1981, it was $ 550 million, and in 1982 - $ 900 million, in 1983 - $ 1,365 billion. Since 1983, the annual American military aid to Egypt amounts to $ 1,3 billion. In total, from 1979 to 2013, the United States provided military assistance to Egypt in the amount of $ 41,8 billion. Outwardly, the "ideology" of helping Egypt looks like this: The United States mediated a peace settlement between Israel and Egypt, so the United States provides military assistance both countries for both baking the regional balance of power and to maintain security cooperation with both countries. This is a key principle of the policy of military assistance to Egypt. Two special memoranda are attached to the 1979 peace treaty of Israel and Egypt, where the United States has set out its obligations towards Israel and Egypt. A similar mechanism since 1980-s has made Israel and Egypt the largest recipients of US military aid in the world.
              It should be understood that the US military aid to the Egyptians does not come in the form of remittances. The Egyptians do not see in their lives a single dollar allocated to them for military assistance. This is a grant program. Egypt is one of its main recipients. I will quote from the magazine on economics:
              From the financial year's 2018, US aid to Egypt goes into four categories: counterterrorism, border security, Sinai security, maritime security, and plus - to support the American weapons systems that Egypt has. In order to reorient the armed forces to "unconventional military actions", the Egyptian military needs, according to one of the estimates, large investments in rapid reaction forces, equipping infantry, optics and communications equipment with sophisticated weapons, supported by expanded observation and reconnaissance platforms. For their transportation, Egypt also needs numerous modern aviation facilities.
              There is a definite reason for the future "anti-terrorism sharpening" of the armed forces of Egypt. One of the biggest concerns over regional stability over the past few years has been the Sinai Peninsula, where radical local Bedouins, foreign and Palestinian militants from neighboring Gaza have created terrorist cells targeting both Egypt and Israel. The Ansar Beit group operating in Sinai arose after the Egyptian revolution 2011 of the year and linked itself with the Islamic State (as is known, it is forbidden in the Russian Federation).

              In other words, the United States is going to “help” Egypt not in what Cairo considers necessary. And in that Washington considers it necessary. Accordingly, the Abrams will go there or not, the Americans decide. However, since 2013, the Egyptian military has increased defense spending and entered into contracts for the supply of arms with France and Russia. Egypt bought weapons from the French for $ 9 billion, including the ill-fated Mistrals. With Russia, by more than $ 3 billion
              Our relationship with Egypt improved markedly after the 2013 coup of the year. Israel expressed significant concerns about the Islamization of Egypt. Egyptian military and police brutally suppressed street protests, killing at least 1150 demonstrators. The Muslim Brotherhood was banned, and their legal branch, the Freedom and Justice Party, was dissolved in 2014.
              And although relations with the Egyptian military are not without difficulties, we have a regular dialogue with them on defense and intelligence issues. Something like that...
