Egypt Daily News – The Israeli media continues its warnings to the Israeli security and military services about the increasing strength and armament of the Egyptian army.
A report published by the Israeli “Hidabroot” news website, published by the extreme right in Israel, said that there is an Israeli concept on another front, which is that the Egyptian army is becoming stronger.
The Israeli website’s report confirmed that the Egyptian army is arming itself and expanding without stopping. The report asked: Is the Israeli army prepared for a scenario of all-out war against its southern neighbor? (Referring to Egypt).
This report comes a few days after the Israeli news channel i24NEWS published a two-part documentary called “Volcano of Rage,” in which it warns of the Egyptian army’s growing power and advanced armament.
The Israeli political analyst specializing in Egyptian affairs said in the i24NEWS film that since the signing of the peace agreement with Egypt, the Egyptian army has strengthened and increased its strength and become one of the strongest and largest armies in the Middle East.
He added: “The Egyptian army is mainly heading towards the east, lining up in front of us and we are in front of it.
In the same context, a report by the Israeli news website Nziv warned of Egypt’s readiness to modernize its old fleet of submarines and obtain submarines more powerful than the German Type 209 submarine.
The Israeli website said that Egypt is also studying the design of the “Barracuda” submarine from the “French Naval Group” to meet its future requirements for submarines.
The report added that the Egyptian Navy underwent a major modernization process and an increase in its capacity in recent years, as French, German and Italian shipyards met Egyptian orders, and now, the Egyptian Navy is looking to purchase a new type of submarine.
The Israeli news website revealed that the Egyptian Navy operates a number of diverse submarines that represent force multipliers under the sea, including German submarines of the “209/1400mod” type, and Chinese submarines of the “Romeo” type.
Egypt is also negotiating to purchase Scorpène-class submarine, which include advanced technology, advanced and wide-ranging offensive and defensive capabilities, such as heavy torpedoes, anti-ship missiles, and air defense. Egypt’s future options also include additional German submarines from Type 209, as well as discussions to purchase larger and more French Barracuda submarines.
The website said that this group of submarines reflects Egypt’s strategy to develop its naval fleet to include advanced technology that supports naval operations on the high seas and coastal areas.
In the same context, Israeli reports revealed what they called the secrets of Egyptian missile launch experiments and advanced launch platforms in the heart of the Egyptian desert.
An Israeli report said that one of the most important missile testing sites in Egypt is located in the Western Desert, and that this site has a long history dating back to the 1950s, when Egypt began developing local missile programs in cooperation with foreign experts.
