On censorship of Egyptian Navy

 Recent satellite images of Alexandria show an interesting view of the Egyptian Navy

 Notice how they try to censor the Amphibious Assault Carrier ENS Gamal Abdel Nasser L-1010 but not the sister ship ENS Anwar El Sadat L-1020

Most important one can see the major new assets of the Egyptian navy in port.  While the submarines, old and new are absent, one can see the Italian built DDG ENS Bernees 1003 and the French built FFG ENS El Fateh 971

 Along with the South Korean built FFG ENS Shabab Misr 1000

 Most important are the domestically built sisters of the ENS El Fateh the ENS Port Said 976 and ENS Moez 981

 This is a total of 2 Aircraft Carriers, 3 DDG's, 13 FFG's and 8 SSK's for the Egyptian Navy.  The only two countries in the region which can compare are Turkey and Iran.  Turkey has 1 Aircraft Carrier, the TCG Anadolu L-400 with another, the TCG Trakya L-401, under construction, 26 FFG's and 14 SSK's, while Iran has 1 multirole Aviation Carrier, the IS Makran 441, 10 FFG's, and 35 SSK's.  Both Turkey and Iran have begun production of domestic built DDG's because of the Egyptian Navy.
It should be noted that this is part of a major buying spree of the Egyptian military.  While Egypt's Navy overwhelms israel's there is little conflict with israel, so the question remains who does Egypt plan to use their new fleet against?  With increasing deployments abroad unlike under Mubarak, and minimal tension with israel, one wonders if Iran is a potential target.
