Ivanov: Russia will provide Egypt-bought Mistrals with equipment and helicopters

Russia will supply equipment and helicopters for the Mistral, which Egypt buys from France. The amount of the transaction may exceed $ 1 billion, transfers TASS Statement by the head of the presidential administration, Sergei Ivanov.

"Egypt plans to buy Mistrals from France, and Russia will be, if you will, a subcontractor who will supply the missing equipment to these Mistrals, without which Mistral, sorry, more delicate to say, can-cans" - and, naturally , all the helicopters that together will be over 1 billion dollars for sure ”,

said Ivanov.

“Egypt buys Mistrali from France, and after that, after the deal is closed, speaking business language, then Egypt, obviously, I don’t say, but I suppose, it will sign a contract with the Russian Federation on retrofitting Mistral the ship itself and helicopters will make a significant contribution to the fight against international terrorism, ”he added.

Earlier, the source told the agency that at the end of October the Egyptian delegation would arrive in Moscow to discuss the possibility of upgrading ships.

“In 20 in October, about a week later, a delegation from Egypt will come to us to discuss the possibility of supplying separate units of electronic equipment for the Mistral, which Egypt bought from France,” the source said.

According to him, “a meeting was held at Rosoboronexport with all manufacturers of this equipment, during which further prospects and use of equipment were discussed.”

I even admit that Egypt could pay with one of the Mistral .....

[Vladimir Pozlnyakov]

What for? To provide the Mistrals bought by Egypt with equipment, helicopters and trained personnel, and to rent for 50 years at the lowest price!

[Now we are free]

Like in the movie "Oligarch" - "You have money, I have money, he has money, in general, everyone is happy ..."

Now you want to "Feint with the ears"? ..
The pipelines were owned by Egypt and already in the Mediterranean ... With Russian equipment installed on them (which no one ever removed ...) with Russian helicopters ...
Where are our crews trained on the Mistral? .. It remains only to buy the Mistrals from Egypt and deliver them to Syrian Tartus, the Mediterranean grouping (without taking into account the little things) is ready ...

Yes, of course it looks futuristic, but after the "Surprise of Uncle Vova" with the launch of missiles from the Caspian Sea through Syria, I personally will not be surprised at anything ...

[Bradypodidae]

For not the richest country in the world, Saudi Arabia pays. So Egypt does not matter what to buy for other people's money. Moreover, they also had to be persuaded to get a freebie.

[Vita vko]

Surely there will be problems with equipment and helicopters. After all, they are now in the standard configuration for the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, and not in the export.

[DanSabaka]

there will be no problems ... more precisely, they have already been resolved ... Egypt has already signed a contract for the purchase of 50 Ka-52 helicopters, a few months ago ....

[Bobxnumx]

This is their personal desire, as the saying goes: "a flag in their hands and a drum behind their back."

2 years ago how much was a squeak why do we need them. And it looks like it’s spinning, we have the technology, the money has been returned to us, the competitor’s reputation has been tarnished, and we can even warm up on extra. equipment and equipment. Once again I am convinced that it is not necessary to draw conclusions ahead of time. Well, you see, who would have thought such a thing?

[ivan bogomolov]

Yes, and the French as children, too, divorced. The credibility is earned over the years, and is lost in an instant.

[Road runer]

That's all - the puzzle came together! In the end, everyone was happy: we got rid of the ships that were essentially unnecessary to us, got money back with compensation; the French have loaded production for 2-3 years, in terms of money, even in positive territory, and in front of the mattress mats, "they threw evil Putin like they were" a little bit heroes; and the Egyptians received two ready-made ships at once to protect the Suez Canal. Fenita la comedy)

Not really they will be ready. A significant part of the military equipment will be dismantled and sent to Russia.

The fact that a delegation of Russian shipbuilders and representatives of the military-industrial complex arrived in Saint-Nazaire, TASS reported. Already yesterday they held a meeting with their French colleagues at the STX shipyard, following which they decided on the procedure for dismantling equipment from the Vladivostok and Sevastopol helicopter carriers, previously intended for the Russian Navy: the French side will do the bulk of the work under the supervision of Russian specialists. First of all, they will have to dismantle communication and control systems (including missile weapons and artillery), combat information and control systems, a helicopter landing control module, cable routes, as well as other Mistral elements that must be returned to manufacturers.

Even so, it was still a good job. For the Saudis money they bought from the French FREMM, they introduced it only for their fleet, but they sold it right there, bought Rafali without bargaining at the price, now here is Mistral. I am going to resume production of the Abrams. And all this for the money of others. Egypt even surpassed Israel for free. The US sponsors, but Israel can only order American weapons for a certain amount. And Egypt can take all over the world.

After signing the contract, we had nowhere to go - we had to acquire these unnecessary tins.

[Papin]

Our campaign has such a scheme muddied:
Egypt buys mistrals from frog beetles for a penny, and our Egyptian mistrals, after being replenished, either "lease" or use turntables.
The benefit is obvious, the frogs pay a forfeit, and our grandmothers get what they wanted + they still will, or a contract for the completion and delivery of weapons, which is also gut!

[AdekvatNICK]

and according to the logic of your thoughts then Egypt should be sanctioned. for the mistral)

So far, Russia has received its second humiliation. First, they clicked on the nose "for bad behavior" by taking away the already purchased goods, then they resold and dragged them into a deal with Egypt. So the Great Powers do not belong and the "gain" from a dubious "enterprise" can be very bitter.

Why's that? . Russia got rid of dubious goods, and at least not in the red for money. France suffered huge reputational losses. All malomalski objective buyers are well aware of where their legs grow there.

[KGB WATCH YOU]

1. A helicopter carrier is not a dubious product. With such "multi-port" in power and industry, we will build our own by the end of the next decade. The fact that we returned our money (without forfeit), and we will earn 1 billion another "hurray-peremoga", which will be reported on Channel One. We needed these ships, not candy wrappers.

2. France did not suffer anything, its arms exports are growing by leaps and bounds. And we are falling.

If Russia buys dubious goods, how should we treat those who make dubious deals? Personally, I'm not sure that we were paid a forfeit, at least the one about which the media shouted so much and for so long, they just returned what we gave. I agree that France "has suffered huge reputational losses." But why don't you consider the reputation of Russia, do you think that it should not have international authority? If not, why do you think that when a country is told under a far-fetched pretext: "We are breaking the contract with Russia for the occupation of Crimea," this is not a "punishment" and does not in any way affect the authority of Russia itself? Or did "bubble thoughts" supplant national pride?

A curious move. Probably possible, because Egypt does not really need such ships, in my opinion. Or they are needed, but not to the extent that they now spend such money on them.

[C2H5OH]

Here they are sanctions in action - Russia will earn more than a billion on NOT DELIVERY to her Mistral))) Tse zrada ???? Svidomo break farts.

And special thanks to comrade Hollande ...

Campaign the French invented a scheme to circumvent sanctions.

[Gorbtk]

All that Russia needed from a scam with the Mistrals, Russia got right away - it's top-secret technology. The rest of the metal is not needed at all. We will do our own and much better. Here is also denyuzhku cut down. The scam was a success and no one understood anything ....

[75 hammer]

Who is in the subject, explain whether our "partners" from China can get into the supply of equipment and helicopters? Everything is cheaper with them! If such a danger does not exist, then I would like to look back three years ago, when disputes over the use of these barges did not subside! A stone in the garden of "all-propals"! A deal with these troughs resembles a fraudulent scheme - the main thing is that Russia has not been left for nothing! Let Egypt order a couple more !!!!!!!!!! As a result, Obama's ban on the sale of barges to Russia made it possible to resolve the question, "What to do with them ??????"

[Corsair0304]

That's normal. Money for the Mistral has returned to Russia (see the euro / ruble exchange rate, as was written earlier). In Egypt, we are returning the previously shaky positions on the sly, and no one has come up with a better way than to tie them up with arms supplies and their maintenance.
Again, a plus sign of our helicopter industry. Here's the word:
Concern Radioelectronic Technologies (KRET) is ready to expand the characteristics of the deck version of the Ka-52K helicopter by equipping it with an upgraded airborne radar station with a built-in centimeter frequency range. This will increase the helicopter's target detection range by 2 times, which is almost 200 km. the unique possibility of using the Ka-52K anti-ship missiles of the Kh-31 and Kh-35 types, which earlier could only be used by the Su-30 and MiG-29K aircraft. "

Why watch something? We paid in euros and back in euros, then we got it, because the purchasing power of the ruble fell - we did not earn anything from this, except shame. Who would try to "throw" the States with ships Jews at one time showed that France was a poor supplier, but they had the courage to steal their power from the port, but we do not. Mistrals are the shame of Russia and Putin.

[MATROSKIN-53]

"Mistral" is a shame for Serdyukov! Our Navy absolutely does not need them. Pig-like barges. And the return of the money for the construction of the real ships is a victory for Putin and Russian diplomacy!

[Maksus]

But Serdyukov bought them himself? For pocket money? The victory of diplomacy is when the troughs are handed over to us on time, or with a delay and payment of a forfeit, rather than dynamite for a whole year.

[KGB WATCH YOU]

We are now buying 30 year old barges from Turkey for the Syrian Express. It will be built in 15 years. Glory to Putin and Russian diplomacy, which deserted the Russians in Ukraine! Hooray! (prolonged applause) as in the Communist Party

[mitya24]

On the Syrian Express, I think they would have found a place ...

[KGB WATCH YOU]

At least one sober look

[Alexander 3]

I think the helicopters will be in export version, that is, some equipment in a trimmed form.

[velikoros-xnumx]

32 cars for two Mistral - 16 ka-52k + 16 ka-29. At a price of at least $ 25 million per unit + other equipment, at least 1 billion is released.

[Arkon]

I think the French media will forbid this to be published under the threat of closure.
This is even funnier than "Confessions from the Crimea".

[Reptiloid]

And again, I have the same ones ??? Who is the bribe to whom? First, the RF - France, then the Saudis - to whom? To us? Egypt? Who - to whom and for what? And what can happen now? And then? Mnogohodovki - where? Although, of course, you just have to wait, not a year or 2 will pass before everything opens.

[Barakuda]

I will laugh in a couple of years when it becomes rusty. Or is it a "cunning" plan from the Saudis? It was not for nothing that they visited the Kremlin, they talked with Vovan.

[Mama_Cholli]

I didn’t even read the article .... it became disgusting.

Israel will be delighted with the two Mistrals with our weapons. They do not know by hearsay the power of Russian weapons, as they say: little Komar stings harder, especially Termites

I wrote earlier that Russia invested very well. transferred an advance of 1000 ml. Euro - in rubles it was 40000 mln rubles. A year later, France returned 1000 ml. Euro in rubles is already 82 ml. rub.

That is, for the year 100% profit !!!!

And now we’ll earn more.

A question for the moderators. Why is it for the right thought, if it picked up the minuses, if you put a plus, it still comes out as a minus. And it has been like that for a long time !!!! This is what we are working as "Censor Ukraine" or will we still include common sense in polemics. Why then are these discussions of articles necessary at all! And please note how many old-timers of the site, namely professionals, left us, I think because of this too. Ukraine even spoiled the VO.

[Roman 1977]

Well, in the company of floating ebipetkogo scrap, donated by the United States, the Soviet Union, in the period of Soviet-ebipetnoy friendship, supplied by the United Kingdom, Spain, China, the next addition.
Egyptian Navy:
- 4 Chinese submarines of the 033 project, clones of Soviet 633 pr. Of the end of 50's. Probably not on the go.

In 2011, 2 submarines of the 209 project, armed with Boeing UGM-84 Harpoon Block II anti-ship missiles, with delivery up to 2016, were ordered in Germany.
- 4 of the American frigate Oliver Hazard Perry — the most combat-ready ships of the Egyptian Navy — transferred to 1996-1998.
- 2 American frigate type Knox, transferred to the 1994 year, with extremely weak anti-aircraft armament: 20-mm 6-barrel ZAK Vulcan Phalanx
- 2 frigate Jianghu Chinese built, without air defense missile system, anti-ship anti-ship missiles clone of the outdated Soviet P-15M.
Negotiations are underway with Egypt on the acquisition of the frigate D 651 Normandie, built for the French Navy (2 is serial for the Navy of this country. It is also planned to order another frigate of the type FREMM.
- 2 Spanish Corvette Descubierta, built in 1984 year.

Rocket Boats-28
- 4 American Ambassadors MK III, built using "Stealth" technology from 2011 to 2014 .. They are the most modern ships of the Egyptian Navy.

- 4 types of October - Egyptian clone of our RCA pr. 183, rearmed with Italian anti-ship missiles "Otomat"
- 9 project 205: 4-supplied from the USSR in 70-x, still 5 former Yugoslav, bought in Montenegro in 2007,
- 5 former German Type 148
- 6 type Ramadan English built.
- 8 MPK "Hainan" - Chinese construction

- 10 patrol boats (6 Soviet pr.206, 4 Chinese "Shanghai-2")

Mine-sweeping forces-16:
- 2 American minesweeper mine hunter Osprey
- 6 sea minesweeper pr.254 of Soviet construction,
- 4 marine minesweeper pr. 266 of Soviet construction
- 4 former Finnish RCA Tuima (a copy of Soviet pr 205) converted into minesweepers
Amphibious forces:
- 3 SDK Ave 770
- 8 MDK Ave. 106K
- landing craft type LCA
Thus, the Egyptian Navy, despite the fact that they are the strongest among the fleets of Arab states, is completely inferior in its strike capabilities to the Israeli Navy.

How boring is this phrase "international territory"! does anyone else believe in his original existence? The leadership confidently repeats this x ... nude and the people pretend that they are.

This expression worked for most people in 1999 and 2000, but now it even sounds silly.

[AlexTires]

Well, this was to be expected, if the Mistrals were originally designed for Russian helicopters, then it is not the French to buy them ...

[Denis DV]

Egypt to the Russian Federation will close part of its public debt with the Mistrals

[Anisim1977]

I think Egypt will overtake them for us to install equipment, and how to install it and sell them to us. And plus 2 helicopter carriers for the ith billion greenery they won’t hurt us in the Mediterranean Sea - but they are clearly superfluous to Egypt - where should they sail and why?
As a result, France will fulfill the contract, and at the same time they will not be able to find fault with a large puddle.
And we need more ships now - and not later, then they will also be needed, and the more the better.

[Grim Reaper]

If we would like to redeem / rent them. IMHO, two helicopter carriers will not bother us. But lard of green printing paper plundered all one ...
