Antonov: Egypt intends to purchase from the Russian Federation a large batch of weapons

The Egyptian leadership expressed its intention to purchase a large batch in Russia weapons and military equipment, reports Rossiyskaya Gazeta with reference to the deputy head of the Ministry of Defense Anatoly Antonov.

This issue was discussed at a meeting of Sergei Shoigu with Egyptian President Al-Sisi and Defense Minister Ahmed.

“Both the President of Egypt and the Minister of Defense of the Republic would like to purchase a wide range of weapons and military equipment. Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu has already given the necessary instructions to the Federal Service for Military-Technical Cooperation, has instructed all of us about the need to work through all existing applications, ”said Antonov.

Shoigu and his Egyptian counterpart agreed to keep the issues of military-technical cooperation "under personal control."

"The President and the Minister of Defense of Egypt unequivocally stated that Russia is a reliable partner, and they are ready for the development of a strategic partnership with our country and are interested in obtaining both armed weapons and military equipment, and in obtaining promising developments," said Antonov .

On what deliveries of weapons in question, he did not specify. "The answer to all applications will be prepared in the coming weeks," - said Antonov.

According to the agency Interfax, last year, the parties partially agreed on contracts for various types of weapons worth about $ 3,5 billion.

“The list of probable supplies included air defense systems, combat helicopters, MiG-29 fighters and anti-tank complexes. Egypt is also interested in purchasing MiG-35 fighters, C-300 PMU2 Favorit and Triumph C-400 missile systems, Buk-M2E and Tor-MNNXE CAM, diesel-electric submarines of the 2 project and other weapons "- writes the agency.

Apparently, the Egyptian authorities seriously decided to bet on relations with Russia. Simply put, turn to face Russia. And stern to the United States, respectively.

[esaul]

It would be even healthier if the acquisition was not through traditional loans from the Russian Federation, but through real money. This is a partnership, and not FIG knows what. Times are not easy now, so that loans are scattered.

[Throw]

What kind of loans, let the grandmas for Ka52 for rowing Mistrals be listed first.

Maybe smeared? Like we really want to cooperate, we will give money! A lot of! Immediately after the downed liner is suspicious! Moreover, they saw how, after the drying of Sushka, Putin reacted to Turkey, officially recorded as accomplices to terrorists! Maybe - on the thief and the hat is on fire? (in the sense of being involved at least indirectly in the murder of A-321) - an assumption!

And are we specifically for Egypt doing such complexes, bent? So they could shoot from around the corner ?.

[aktanir]

And then the bet on Russia? Egypt has misguided and greatly guilty, having allowed a terrorist attack on our plane, in other words, allowed terrorism to avenge us on Syria! But the Egyptian government is smart enough to try to compensate us for this pain with economic measures - the purchase of weapons, etc. They want to sweeten the pill, I understand them, they are more human than Turkey. Therefore, it is enough for us from Ass Sisi to obtain guarantees that there will be no more terrorist attacks in his country with the participation of our citizens, and to redirect the entire flow of our tourists to Egypt, to its beaches. Egypt is a real friend, not this presumptuous Erdogan.

We do not have friends, but we have belt partners. As long as Egypt is profitable, it will buy and support. The same story, I think it will be with Greece.
With regard to "make amends," Egypt's only fault is that it all happened on their land. The real culprits have not yet been punished.
And about Turkey, that’s just been a day since the sabotage. Everything is just beginning and I think nothing good awaits either Erdogan or the Turks in general either in the near or in the distant future.

This is not a real friend, but a temporary travel companion! There can be no friends between states. Can you remember the "brothers"? Or the same Egypt, when, in response to awarding the Chief Egyptian with the Order of Lenin, he began to hang the Egyptian communists! How much did you help Vietnam? In response, they are now looking into the US mouth. And so with almost all states. So I wouldn't be so categorical about the reality of friendship.

[Alexey Boukin]

Quote: aktanir

And then the bet on Russia? Egypt goofs off and is very guilty, allowing a terrorist attack on our plane,

No need to compare Egypt with Turkey. The Egyptian authorities immediately apologized for the plane crash with our citizens on their territory, brought their condolences in this regard and took an active part in the investigation of this tragedy. And Erdogan wriggles as if trying to put the blame on our shoulders, in every possible way justifying the vile act of the Turkish military.

Any military korntract is, first of all, the sphere of influence in the buyer's region, and therefore - indirect power there; the money here is secondary at the first stage ... and, as a rule, is returned handsomely and a multiple of what is prescribed in the contracts.

[Andrey NM]

It seems to me that Egypt is now a great opportunity to strain in the direction of strengthening anti-terrorism security and tear off a tourist piece from Turkey. The task is difficult, but doable. It is difficult to launder, of course, but they do not behave like Turkey. And for control, invite experts from countries whose tourists will come to rest. And this is the money brought ...

“Egyptian friends”, “Turkish friends” - there are no friends in politics and economics, there is a coincidence of interests. Today they coincide, but not tomorrow ...

His army would first completely rearm. And then in the twenty-first century we fly on the oldest fire support helicopter in the world - shame and shame!

[Wolka]

very subtle remark

[Wolverine]

And I prefer the opinion that there is no need for modern, or even the latest weapons, to supply anyone at all, as practice shows today a friend, tomorrow an enemy. You need to sell, but junk that is removed from service.

[Denis Obukhov]

everything is natural. The United States is throwing everyone, and Russia and Syria have shown that it can be trusted, and things went better with the weapons themselves, and Shoigu, apparently, has authority in many countries. Therefore, countries make their choice

[marlin1203]

Well, where did even the Saudis get so much dough?

[aleksfill]

Collaboration with Egypt is a thankless task. These guys always twisted - spit
backwards. Today they are aground, the cat wept for money and the Russian military industry them, as it were,
pocket, what can I say, do not we dump? Why do we say some
the samples of our military equipment are not equal, then why do we sell them cheaper?
If this is commerce, then for the product you need to take what it costs even because
that the Egyptians do not fight - neither our, nor American, nor French weapons
can not.
The experience of cooperation with Arabs, Turks, and both Muslims is always fraught with
betrayal, a knife in the back on their part.

[Greyhound famously]

East is a delicate matter. Perhaps the way you say, but it is possible that this is a way to improve attitude and speed up the consideration of the issue of resuming flights and, as a result, the return of Russian tourists.

The Saudis will pay, because as far as I know, Egypt supports them in the Yemen conflict. But is it not possible that the Egyptians then, together with the Saudis, begin to strangle Assad?
Even if Assad wins, Syria will have no dollars to buy weapons for a very long time. Yes, they were not really, the Union supplied them like that, because of our bases.

Why not! Egypt is breathing evenly in our direction, so it’s worth it to help them with modern weapons.

[SibSlavRus]

No wonder. The power of Russian weapons. The quality of Russian weapons. Guaranteed effectiveness of Russian weapons.
Professionals know this.
For such money and such quality no one in the world can offer.

And who to buy from? The "partners" - the Americans, have a three-way road with their expensive consumables and maintenance, complex operational characteristics. They sniff so that you are tortured "constantly" to adjust to their standards.
Or is it Israel? (joke!)
In the world there are now only two manufacturers of truly effective weapons that have been fighting all over the world for many years, and the scientific elites are working on the development and production of these weapons. Not many people can afford to mass trade and provide technical support for weapons and equipment.

And Russian weapons have proven themselves, like the country - "a reliable and loyal partner and ally." And for some loyal countries - a comrade in arms.

Even "potential enemies" (sworn partners) recognize the strength and effectiveness of Russian weapons, and some samples of our weapons and equipment have no analogues at all, even in the long term out of competition!
We know this and excessive modesty is useless here. Only pride!
The strength of Russian weapons is covered in Glory, as is fighting spirit!

Does Israel still want to experience "Uniquely not having an analogue in the world"?
Even if your "Merkavas" burn with a couple of shots with an ordinary RPG-7.
Take the Strength and Glory of Russian weapons for granted, you are our restless.
This fact is recognized by everyone in the world, even those who (for example the USA, the same Turks) have never associated themselves with Russia as a friendly nk, but Israel, in your person and people like you, OUR GEORGE, Judas, allows yourself to jibber over great achievements Of Russia.

When the states are not up to you, due to socio-political disasters at home, where will you rush about?
In the Russian world, betrayal is one of the main sins.

Although I have nothing against dryers, but after all, the MiG has been in the aviation world since the 50s, the most famous brand in the aviation world. Somehow undeservedly, in the last decade he has fallen into the shadows.

NOT MY BUT ...

Heaven suddenly turned into hell for me
A treacherous blow from around the corner ...
I am a plane with the soul of man
With special wing geometry.

When they beat in the back, they know - they will not miss,
What are the vulnerabilities ...
And the pain that started somewhere in the fuselage,
It pierces from the cab to the tail.

What the hell is going on in this world ?!
Do not see me through the fire and smoke.
I'm not Charlie, I'm Su-Xnumx
And where are the tablets with my name?

Piquet will tighten ... Dizziness
Shuffles everything into a kaleidoscope.
I have not been given a chance to escape
I meet the inevitable directly in the forehead.

Earth will embrace to take forever
My recorder let him cover the darkness.
I am a plane with the soul of man
With special wing geometry.

Egypt, Egypt. You can’t blindly trust him, they were already undergoing an alliance, they also supplied weapons, specialists, and then turned to assholes. The most advanced weapon systems can be delivered only to trusted allies, we didn’t push 300k to the Turks. This is a good example staffers, they delivered abrams to Egypt, but they were denied uranium armor. We need to sell weapons, but we must weigh everything and not harm ourselves

You cannot supply the latest samples of our technology. Especially s-400 ... In pursuit of profit, we also sell our secrets.

[Sasha75]

I will express my thoughts on the production of weapons. This is not a matter of one month. Some contracts are being implemented. Now we have many defense enterprises working in three shifts, carrying out contracts for themselves and for the sale abroad, many models stand in line and turn for years S-400 for example. And on time, an order is an opportunity to get weapons on time and without a contract you can get nothing at all and stay with that rubbish consisting of many foreign models that are without repair and spare parts and are not only morally and technically outdated. In the example, Syria is now fighting t 55, even t-34-85 and su 100, we began to help well. They say the West will help, well, how to say Iraq, well, understandably, they liked almost everything that the Americans put to them. But something needs to be fought, and the request for equipment was not fulfilled for a whole year; they were waiting for Ukrainians from the states to end up with nothing to fight. Although the Ukrainians paid the money in advance, and Iraq traveled the world with outstretched hands. Where most of all we helped him correctly, quickly, from storage depots, from factories we had. And then the situation is heating up and even the Egyptians understand the igil will not go away just like that and the war will be long there is Syria Iraq Somalia that they forgot about and the Turks threw up what to expect from them who knows so this is a well-thought-out order and you will see, it will not be the last and not the largest world is arming itself.
