Chinese solutions why not
The Egyptian Navy development program is almost stopped now
Egypt was unable to activate the contract for 4 Bergamini FREMM frigates
The same applies to Egypt, which has a request for 10 corvettes to protect economic zones
The same applies to Egypt, which is working on producing 12 light missile patrol boats PV-43, which are considered outdated in technology compared to Turkish boats, so there will be difficulty in marketing them in Africa in the face of Turkish competition
The same applies to a small missile corvette boat, Egypt needs 20 CC-60 model boats, the development of which has not been completed, especially since it is based on the old Lürssen design FPB62' type, giving it a ghostly touch instead of a completely new, advanced design, so its development has stalled so far, and the Italian deal has stalled due to the Europeans' refusal
The Egyptian justifications are of course not true, and they are the Egyptian economic situation, which is the opposite of the truth, as we have turned into a poor country with a poor government and a rich army due to its control over 50% of the economy, despite its failed management of the state during 10 years, which enjoyed a high level of corruption And monopoly
Generally, negotiations have not been concluded or contracts have been presented from the Qataris, Turks and Italians to provide new designs and components for the package of ships requested by Egypt. The Turks are promoting the Hisar corvette and there are indications that Egypt will request an initial batch of 4 locally produced and with full missile equipment, as the negotiations of the South Koreans on OPV ships and light corvettes have not been completed
As well as light Turkish coastal landing ships manufactured in Egyptian shipyards

TYPE-54B with more firepower is nice solution
The current program that Egypt is working on is to equip the previously obtained parts with USV, Chinese, French and Turkish UUV
There are also negotiations with the Turks on a new missile boat manufactured in Egypt after the success of the MRTP-34 in Egypt previously by producing a new boat with a larger displacement and more intensive armament and as an alternative to the German TYPE-148 boats and the Ramadan-class missile boat

Upgraded AR-500 design is required Equal to VSR-700
And the Egyptians must provide quick solutions
Regarding the Chinese submarines, they have a great chance of replacing 4 Rambo submarines in Egypt with TYPE-26 submarines with various updates. This does not mean stopping negotiations with the French and Germans on heavier submarines, but the Chinese solution is considered fast and also a pressure factor on the Europeans. Egypt has not reached the point of obtaining alternative submarines with the Koreans and Japanese to replace European submarines such as Barcode or Scorpion, as the Europeans see the danger of the growth of the Egyptian Navy with the Egyptian surface-to-surface missile network that covers the Egyptian coasts, which compensates for the modest level of Egyptian surface-to-surface missiles of old models such as Harpoon and Exocet. Therefore, what we see of the Egyptian Navy’s propaganda about what has been developed in the past years is a concealment of the slow pace of the Navy’s development or the completion of its equipment in the past years. Simply put, within 18 months, Egypt will have completed the production of the modest PV-43 launches and the light Turkish landing ships, and Egypt will still have all its needs of supply and provisioning ships, attack submarines, small frigates, and light corvettes that have not been decided. Which of them is supposed to have been decided in order to prepare the shipyards, so the trend towards the Chinese side is considered very important, as China is the only country that can provide engines for various marine vessels outside the framework of Germany, Finland, England and America, and they are the ones who are responsible for building Egyptian ships with these engines.
