Monday, February 16, French Defense Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian, accompanied, among others, by Eric Trappier, CEO of Dassault Aviation, officially signed in Cairo an agreement with Egypt on the sale of 24 Rafale, which will be intended for the Egyptian Air Force.
Egyptian Rafale, the first to be delivered should have been at the French Air Force, will be divided into two parts, with one hand, sixteen-seater Rafale, which will be used for pilot training Egyptian hunting and why not, for operational missions, as in France, while the other eight will be cars Rafale.
These twenty-four Rafale will be equipped with air-to-air missiles MICA air-to-ground cruise missile SCALP (called Black Shaheen for export version) and air-ground bombs AASM, developed by Sagem, whose effectiveness was demonstrated in Libya, Mali, and even today in Iraq.
The first three Rafale, which should be two-seater, will be charged at their factory, the F3 standard, why not with, improvements and updates in the coming years. Few changes will be made to the Rafale that are being built, except the removal of data and software for the implementation of the ASMP-A nuclear weapon, and software used for communications, since the Egypt is not part of NATO.
But before you can use these aircraft in missions over Egypt, and perhaps even in external operations, the Egyptian Air Force will select and train fighter pilots who will fly the Rafale.
Therefore, the first Egyptian fighter pilots, accompanied by mechanics, are currently on the air base 118 of Mont-de-Marsan, in the Rafale Training Centre (CFR) for a period of one month for drivers, and for three months with regard to the mechanics.
At Mont-de-Marsan, alongside the Regiment Hunting 2/30 "Normandie-Niemen" and Fighter Squadron and Experimentation 5/330 "Côte d'Argent", airmen and Egyptian engineers are integrated into the Rafale Training Centre (CFR).This device, attached to the commandments of the air force and maritime naval air force, aims, according to the General Staff of the Army, to "train the whole staff of defense and aerospace companies in the system . Continuous Learning CFR delivers aircraft maintenance license qualification (LMAE) and rests on 3 pillars: theoretical, technical approach to the Rafale, and flight simulation. "
After this initial training is completed, the Egyptian fighter pilots will visit Squadron Transformation 2/92 Rafale "Aquitaine", on the air base 113 of Saint-Dizier. The ETR 2/92 "Aquitaine" is a squadron "assures including the training of cabin crew, standardizes the use of the Rafale aircraft, simulators and trains instructors." Egyptian pilots will stay in Saint-Dizier for two months.
Conversely, Egyptian engineers should remain on the air base of Mont-de-Marsan and be trained by the staff of the French Technical Support Aviation Squadron (ESTA) 2E.118 "Chalosse".
During a hearing before the Committee on National Defence and Armed Forces, General Denis Mercier, Chief of Staff of the Air Force, said that "the questions they ask [the Egyptian military, Ed] and the results they have achieved the first tests are very encouraging. We will be able to train them fast enough. " Later, pilots and mechanics Egyptian "will be accompanied by two pilots and a few mechanics that we send to Egypt as part of the cooperation."
In 2015, France must train eight fighter pilots and thirty-two mechanics. The airmen are from several different types of aircraft, and are not all from squads composed of Dassault Aviation fighter aircraft. If the first aviators are considered experienced drivers, the next who will be trained in France should be young drivers.
