One of my "
older" projected issues I've mentioned in the forum were projects going back to
2014/2015 mine concerned the same jets but a different country-
BRAZIL. And I'll leave that there.
But concerning
EYGPT and the
MIRAGE 5SDE (Specifically.) and the
MIRAGE 2000EM (Specifically), I'll try to make Marks case for him differently that maybe he might not be aware of himself
, there
exists at least a ten year gap between the two aircraft in their respective delivery dates to
EYGPT, that in of itself should be enough reason I would think to get the
MIRAGE 5SDE entered.
The next is from of course,
SIPRI which I consider the "
great arbitrator" for such issues as these.
20 Mirage-2000 FGA aircraft (1983)
1986-1988 (Delivered-Mine) (20) $1 b deal (incl production of components in Egypt);
Mirage-2000EM version; incl
4 Mirage-2000BM trainer version
38 Mirage-5 FGA aircraft 1973
1973-1975 (Delivered-Mine) (38) Financed by Saudi Arabia; Mirage-5SDE version; incl
6 Mirage-5SB trainer version
EYGPT would order
34 total more
MIRAGE-5 aircraft...

1977 14 Financed by Saudi Arabia;
Mirage-5SDE version
14 Mirage-5 FGA aircraft 1977

16 Mirage-5 FGA aircraft 1980
1983 (16)
Mirage-5E2 version (I believe if memory serves, these are the
more advanced French Air Force versions.)
And finally, just to wrap up all the Jet Fighters bought from France by EYGPT...
24 Rafale FGA aircraft 2015
2015-2019 24 Part of $5.2-6 b deal; incl
8 Rafale-EM and
16 Rafale-DM version
My search criteria Supplier France/Recipient Egypt/Aircraft/
1970-2020.
Make
no mistake there are differences between these types. I hate "
cookie cutters" especially when it comes to tanks and combat aircraft.
Oh!, because I can
F-35 FOC by 2023? Don't hold your breath, I really wish
that we would make this right in the game since we do it with the tanks etc. which is our "
main purpose" I believe.
Anyway...I only hope those that read the next, will read it as carefully as I have.
Israel is the ONLY country to declare their F-35 jets at FOC and they're also already modifying them to suit their needs. Of course as I've already posted.
