Egypt expresses interest in "Mistral" "started" by Russia

76
A representative of the United Instrument-Making Corporation told reporters that important agreements were reached between Egypt and Russia on the supply from Russia of a “filling” for Mistral-type helicopter carriers. We are talking about the warships that France built for the Russian Navy, but, by the decision of Hollande, refused to transfer to Russia, having paid the funds transferred by Moscow. After this decision, all the main equipment, which was intended for the operation of the "Mistral" by the Navy fleet Russia, was dismantled. Egypt expressed readiness to acquire helicopter carriers from France.

Egypt expresses interest in "Mistral" "started" by Russia


RIA News cites statements by the representative of the defense industry, without naming him:
With Egypt, negotiations are continuing on the supply of electronic equipment for helicopter carriers "Mistral". It is already clearly understood that the equipment dismantled from the "Mistral", which was intended for use by the Russian Navy, will not be supplied to Egypt (...) The possibility of manufacturing another set of equipment in Russia specifically for the Arab Republic of Egypt is now being discussed. There is serious progress in this topic. In Egypt, other requirements, we need a different set of equipment with different characteristics that meet the specifics of the Armed Forces of this country.


The interlocutor of the news agency added:
It’s too early to talk about the results of the negotiations, but there is a lot of interest on the Egyptian side. There is a clear understanding that our production structures are able to fulfill this order efficiently and on time.


According to the latest data, both helicopter carriers built by France for the Russian Navy will be transferred to Egypt under the French-Egyptian contract this summer (2016). At the same time, Egypt expresses an interest in the fact that it is the Russian Federation that “repairs” the ships with radio electronics to the standards of the Egyptian navy.

              Until 1973, many weapons, tanks, aircraft, and air defense were delivered to Egypt. They did not win the war, blaming the USSR for all the sins, and soon fell under the Americans. Tanks from the USSR. Bad, big losses !? And why should they be small, if in the prayer all the crews spread rugs and communicate with heaven. Smart Israelis are waiting for this moment as manna from heaven and their aircraft clicks these tanks like nuts. Many years have passed since then, and the essence of the Egyptians has not changed. As they were vile, they remained!

            Even two.

            Sinai - but there the fleet will not help much.
            Libya - Egypt helps Haftar without much ado. They even sometimes bomb the Derna and its environs. If the broads break through Tobruk, they will rush further, already to Egypt, where there is a huge, plainly unprotected border.

            However, the fleet of Egypt buys Saudi money, on certain conditions for further participation. In fact, in the future it will be the core of the fleet of the Arab Coalition, for others have a weak fleet. For example, the Saudis - the most powerful naval country in the region:
            - 3 frigates of LaFayet, which have a stealth chip of 2000's sample and all for the sake of stealth and a price tag of 450 million euros, while they have 16 Aster-15 + 8 RCC + helicopter + 76 GRT Melaru.
            - 4 old frigates 80's, which are used as training ships.
            - The 4 of the Badr ship, in fact it’s an RTO with 8 Harpoons, Volcano and 76mm OTO Melara, plus 40mm grenade launchers, 20mm guns on remote turrets, for operations near the shore.
            - 3 of the old English stigmas.
            - 9 old American RCA, with 4 harpoons and a cannon (% of living unknown)

            That is, the Saudi fleet is unable to solve any serious tasks. Generally deprived of specialized landing equipment and ships of the far sea zone.

          Egypt in France was packed with FREMM frigate, 2 + 2 Govind corvette frigates (which pulled even more expensive than Mistral), Rafali, army ACS, a bunch of bombs, missiles, simulators. Therefore, Egypt will not do this. Even if further problems (sanctions, closure of financing of Egypt, closure of lending to Egyptian companies, partial or complete cessation of trade and tourism) are ignored, even direct military losses will be much greater.

    There may be an option that has already been expressed here on the site, i.e. France could not supply them directly to Russia, although a contract, then, perhaps, a lot of hodovka was invented: like France does not transfer them to Russia and pays a n-th amount, the ships are bought by a third country (in this case Egypt), the buyer (Egypt ) for these ships you need everything (helicopters, filling, etc.), preferably not expensive. And then Egypt, like, is going to buy all this from Russia (cheaper, there is technical documentation and equipment), signs a contract and the ships go to St. Petersburg, and then it turns out that Egypt doesn't need them (in principle, they don't need them now - it's expensive for them) they are sold to Russia, a little more expensive than they bought from France. Everyone, ships from Russia, Egypt with money + a small gain, France got rid of the "suitcase without a river" and everyone is happy.

      This will be a blow to France and the EU as a whole stronger than if set directly.

      In the contract for 100% prohibition of resale.

      Even if it does, then the EU will be banned from Egypt, which is currently having a hard time and is actively increasing EU trade and financing.

      You can already keep silent about the problems about other ships. The EU and France recognize the deal as illegal - no one will storm the ships, but it will be very difficult to organize a trip (passage of straits, waters of foreign countries, taking food, water and fuel and lubricants in potras, friendly visits, etc.). This is a very large-scale problem.

      It is not worth it, especially to Egypt.

        There is no problem, especially if one ship flies without breaks from Sochi (Novorossiysk) to Tartus with tanks and ammunition for Syria, and the second will sail in the far east.

The fact that they would not be given to us was clear long before the end of construction. Then recover their loot back during the economic crisis and force Europe to urgently look for at least some buyers, substituting them to Egypt. And then sell the equipment and helicopters to the Egyptians! Significantly welded on this!

      Excellent all the same, our muddied! XNUMX

      Only one hitch, no dough. The frogs were probably not aware of our "muddied" and paid not with money, but with bank guarantees, which in turn were suspended because of the "Yukos case". So we don't have denag. And the French have pushed the trough, and generally look good on the arms market. The story with the mistrals did not damage the image in any way.

    Excellent all the same, ours muddied! The French had to devote us to modern technology, also a plus! And the most important thing is that now the NATO people themselves will think a hundred times before they run into Egypt, they themselves have armed themselves to the teeth, even if not without our participation, now they themselves will be raking out!


    Could you explain to which such modern technologies the French have dedicated us?
    Do you think that having two helicopter carriers means arming yourself to the teeth?

      Assembly from high-availability blocks is the same. However, there are still no cranes. Sense of technology? The stern was collected from blocks up to 80 tons, and the French had bow in blocks in 480-520 tons.

      Egypt does not have 2 Helicopter carrier, but:
      4 boats Type-209 / 1400M
      1 FREMM - one of the best frigates
      4 Govinda - Corvette Frigate, with Aster, Exosets and Helicopter
      4 Ambassadors - URO American Patrollers.
      2 own companions will be soon.
      24 Raphael with weapons, simulators.

      From the French they bought almost 6 billion saudobaks, from the Germans 1 billion saudobaks, later in France they still walked 1 billion euros in Thales - having bought the 2 satellite. Under the Christmas tree we bought another NH-90 - 5 pieces + an option for an unknown number of cars. Now they are choosing aircraft for the BTA.

    And what do the Saudis really pay for the work of Russia? I don’t even know how to react if it’s real.

    In the future, Egypt expects 50 MiG-29CMT. The contract was concluded in April 2015 of the year ...

    ... Almost the same as in the photo. Only without stars.

    I don’t know how the Egyptians, but they seem gold to the Franks. How many are already swollen in them and how much will be.
