Everyone knows that recently Chinese J-10 fighters and Y-20 fighters participated in the Egypt Air Show in Egypt. The J-10 flight demonstration team not only gave a wonderful performance, but also flew over the pyramid. It can be said that we are very sincere, and Egypt is also very face-saving. And this is not the end, the scene of the air show Egypt President also personally asked, throwing off other countries and going straight to the Chinese fighter booth of CAIC.
According to the picture of the Egypt air show reported by Egypt "Special News", we saw such a scene. Egypt's President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi, surrounded by military personnel, came to the air show booths of various countries. Just past the Korea booth, and the South Korean side seems to be a leader bowing 90 degrees at the door, next to the KF-21 fighter, which Korea is most proud of. Originally, the South Korean side thought that the president of Egypt would come to the Korea booth to have a look, but the result was unexpected.
The president of Egypt did not turn his head directly, did not glance at his eyes, and went straight past the Korea booth and came to the booth of China Aviation Technology next to it. It is not difficult to see from the actions of the President of Egypt and his entourage that they are not casually strolling around at all, and the purpose of this trip has long been set, that is, to see Chinese fighters.
The subsequent picture shows that the Chinese booth staff is very confident in introducing the situation of Chinese fighters to Egypt President Cicero. After a brief conversation, the two sides entered the booth further, during which Cicero also patted the staff on the shoulder, and the atmosphere was very harmonious, like an old friend. This is the same as the feeling of not returning to the head of the Korea booth, which is simply a judgment of two people. So why is there such a big difference in the attitude of the president of Egypt?
According to reports, China Aviation Technology has signed a cooperation project with Egypt on August 19 on "advanced fighters", and this project is Cicero himself to follow up and inquire. At present, the two parties are making every effort to promote the follow-up development of the project. In fact, this also explains why we were so sincere this time, and directly brought J-10 and Y-20 fighters, which were completely sent to the door for display. And why did Egypt also give such face, this enthusiastic attitude directly poured cold water on Korea. You must know that Korea, as a patchwork of Western shelf products, its equipment is still famous, and this time it was directly ignored. So the question is, is it the J-10 or J-31 that Egypt introduced this time?
At present, there are two theories, such as many media in Egypt have speculated that the introduction of J-10 fighters. The reason is that the relationship between Egypt and Pakistan is good, and Egypt can fully understand the advanced level of the J-10 through the Pakistani side.
And now Egypt also has a large number of Chinese fighters, such as the world's largest K-8 trainer aircraft in Egypt. At the same time, Egypt is also equipped with the "Pterodactyl-1" UAV. In addition, after the L-15 senior coach won the order of 12 aircraft in the U.A.E., it is also competing for Egypt's advanced trainer aircraft. It can be said that Egypt's introduction of Chinese fighters is a matter of course.
Of course, we also noticed that Egypt does have too many fighters similar to J-10, not only about 218 F-16s of various types, but also dozens of Rafale fighters. So is it necessary to introduce the J-10C? The J-10 at this time did not show an advantage in the eyes of Egypt. Therefore, the possibility of Egypt introducing J-31 is also very high.
This time the J-10C went to Egypt is likely to be a trick to the West, and the Ming Xiu plank road is dark Chen Cang. After all, the J-31, as one of the few fifth-generation stealth aircraft in the world, once it enters the Middle East, its impact on the West can be imagined. This also explains why Egypt President Cicero personally followed up this time and visited the air show. If it is a fourth-and-a-half-generation fighter like the J-10C, it is estimated that there is no need to be so excited.
Regardless of whether it is J-10 or J-31, if the large order signed by the two sides can be smoothly promoted, then at least one advanced fighter will enter the Middle East. This is also the first time in several decades, after continuing the J-7, Egypt and even the Middle East once again introduced domestic advanced fighters. This also proves that the technical strength of Chinese fighters has returned to the first camp in the world, and has achieved from lagging behind to catching up, and then to overtaking. And Egypt, which has obtained Chinese fighters, has one more way from now on, and there is no need to obey the West, and the changes in the Middle East may have to start with this big order!
