Ning Yiming, the leader of one of the Chinese J-16 fighter jets participating in the "Eagles of Civilization 2026" exercises on Egyptian soil, stated to Chinese television:
"We were deeply impressed by the precise training style of the Egyptian pilots, and their close cooperation and excellent tactical and technical skills during the joint training—we learned from each other.

i am sorry but Turkey doesnt need someone else to build KAAN , manufacturing components is a part of off-set deals. we already designed and manufactured whole aircraft. Turkish industry is enough full speed manufacturing.

completely BS! why dont you manufacture fighter and helicopters? never had one?

So why did they approve Egypts involvement in the project??? You need to step back and understand that not everything is a hundred percent in Turkish favors. The way everyone sees is it is that both sides go as winners, if there was nothing for turkey to gain they wouldn’t have signed the deal in the first place with Egypt

Doesn’t change the fact that you haven’t designed engines for the aircraft yet.

A simple google search will confirm what I stated about the Turkish drone industry, you don’t even need ai to summarize things for you, just admit you’re wrong bro, there’s no shame in that. Saying “BS” like it means something does not disprove my points.

As far as Egyptian military manufacturing, look into EDEX with their annual projects, some already going into mass production, if not limited production. The list is too long for me to list them so that’s on you to search it up.

Attack helos are becoming more and more niche as the proliferation of drones expands, hence why the EAF is prioritizing drone expertise more so then helicopters, but they STILL have there use just because there’s so many of them still around. Be it training or supply or logistics. But come the mid 2030s you’ll see drones executing the roles of attack helos more often since they’re production friendly and affordable.

Aircraft wise, Egypt would’ve been 2-3 decades ahead of turkey in this arena if it wasn’t for the 6 day war blunder and economic woes in its past, it was manufacturing ha 200s in the late 50s and had plans to put the Ha 300 into service, for the time it was said to be a good aircraft and would’ve given eaf amazing knowledge and expertise in the field of military aeronautics back in the late 60s going onwards.

The Chinese Air Force's Yun-20U fuel tanker aircraft refuels an Egyptian Rafale fighter aircraft in mid-air during the China-Egypt joint exercises "Eagles of Civilization - 2026".



The Chinese newspaper Sohu spoke about the possibility of Egypt heading to obtain 6 Chinese air refueling aircraft from the Y-20 family, as part of strengthening the capabilities of the Egyptian Air Force in the field of long-range operations.

Well.. if you can buy 6 Y-20 from China for the price of two MRTT's..why not?

It just feels off putting when you intermix with equipment from multiple nations on every aspect of the armed forces, kinda like the Indian airforce even though they are compatible for in air refueling
