Tel Aviv criticizes Paris over air superiority and Egypt support
The article discusses the developments in armament in the region, where Egypt has succeeded in obtaining the advanced French Météor missiles for its Rafale aircraft, despite previous American opposition aimed at preventing the export of such sophisticated weapons to Egypt. These missiles are considered among the most dangerous air weapons in the world and provide Cairo with advanced combat capabilities that exceed visual range, thereby shifting the regional balance of power and threatening Israeli air superiority. Reports indicate that France bypassed the American veto, which had imposed restrictions on the sale of long-range air-to-air missiles to Egypt, in order to bolster its political and geopolitical influence in the Mediterranean. These developments have raised concerns in Israel, which is urging the enhancement of its air defense systems and the development of its technological capabilities to contain Egypt’s advanced military assets, alongside the necessity of strengthening intelligence cooperation to achieve regional stability.
