Egyptian Mirage V Horus released after stiff opposition from India.

[MIRauf]

Deals were likely started or done right after Feb 26, 2019. Covid-19 just came afterwords.

Yes they went to the supermarket and just bought cutting edge tech just like that. Makes sense!

After all dont know in which world technical specs, ammo pkg, pilots and ground crew training, legal issues etc would take time!

Ya I know this process starts years before hand but usually all of our developments have been halted due to corruption and the sinking economy.

The route was similar to usual CAPs, heading towards port grand from over gulberg

Are all these in good flyaway condition ? Can flyable from Egypt to Pakistan

Thales RC400 radar with Matra Mica missiles.
Ironically that is the radar PAF wanted for JF17.

Will French allow eygpt to sell RS400 and Mica??

They are not going to take the Radars out lol.
But MICA can be used by Egyptian M2K fleet so dunno about that. If PAF really needs MICA, can get it via Qatar or UAE.

Fully agreed. These deals take years to make and can break at any time along the way. It can easily take 3-4 years to reach final atages and sometimes more.If I remember correctly I have read that the talk for Horus mirages started in 2015.

Or there may b some urgency, as you heard india purchased lot of stuff urgently from the shelf, so pakistan as well... may be there are drums of war around... may be we felt heat now.....as earlier, our high ups were confident under nuclear umbrella, but after 26 Feb they realised something else.. may be...

IAF gets 3 squadron worth of FULCRUM and FLANKER while Pak get's Mirage IIIs as quick purchases. Not a very even hand but at the very least they will be up and ready faster than the Indian buy.
