As was the case for the Royal Morrocan Navy’s Mohammed VI FREMM, the former Normandie saw its second row of vertical launch system (SYLVER A70, used to launch MBDA’s naval cruise missiles) and the two SIGEN R-ECM electronic warfare and jammer systems removed because of export limitations for these sensitive equipments.


Like ther Scalp missiles downgraded to 250km :LOL: and they pay the full price.

We al ready now how important a EW attack or ECM system is. Syria and Karabagh is an example, when they face power like Turkey they will lose definitly.


After the last incidents, I don't suppose Egypt and Turkey will come to the edge of a likely conflict. What both state will do is to improve relations and trade.

Of course we have free-speech here, everyone is allowed to say anything they want as long as they stay in the line of decency. But i have seen some baseless claims against Egypt in this thread. You are only lowering the quality of the forum with your 1 sentence baseless claims.

Yes because UAE left and found another lover called Israel. You don't want allies like that, they made deal with Cyprus. If they make a EEZ agreement they will have share in the oil/gas fields. For that they gave up big part of ther EEZ. What do you want to do with that kind country?

As long they honour ther agreement with Cyprus ther will be not more then trade with them.

They rushed to buy Mistral, ended up still using Stinger missiles for air defense

Pre-Prepared Road for Landing

Well as an amphibious assault and command ship,you surely know the Mistrals projecting an expeditionary force would be supported by a naval task force providing air defence and anti submarine protection.... As well as possible air detachments providing protection from the air... Unless of course you plan to deploy them alone. Mounted stingers providing very short air defence are an interesting addition.

No need for tracked vehicles,there are effective and cheap ways used by engineers for effective beach landing of vehicles.

The Egyptian navy is undergoing quite the modernization. I dont think it will be enough however to properly defend the two Mistrals. Its weird because usualy states purchase the neccesary fleet to support such vessels but Egypt buying the Misrals off the shelf like that caused for a massive gap in their supporting fleet to utilize these vessels properly.

Is there any interest in buying dedicated AAW frigates?

Egyptian Mistrals should at least have CIWS

i agree with you 100%
but the circumstances of buying the misterals imposed this situation
and it was a really good opportunity to get these 2 great ships from france which was built for russia

Indeed thats the point, no EW suite or SIGINT suite but pay half billion for one ship :LOL: . Look if they had brains they had chosen ADA class with VLS. Pakistans Ada class is much more capable then ther firgatte.
Did Italy remove these as well?

An LHD at class of Mistral wouldn't sail without proper self-defense , you may check similar LHDs like Izumo; Japanese, Wasp class; USN, Juan Carlos; Spanish Navy or Italian Trieste.
From your perspective, USN Aircraft carriers doesn't need 3 level of self-defense products (ESSM+RAM+Phalanx) since they are accompanied by AD destroyers.
It is not about deploying alone, but how you intend to operate these, in which conditions.

Nobody would sell full version of EW suite, in the best case it would be restricted on software level.
I was reading comments of our people under MaviVatan's post on Twitter, it was a complete chaos. Thanks for the asnwer =)
