The Military-Industrial Complex Is Being Exported to Egypt | Cato Institute: "Washington has given Cairo $1.3 billion a year in military aid"

"U.S. military aid covers as much as 80 percent of the Egyptian Defense Ministry’s weapons procurement costs.

That ample assistance has enabled Egypt to become the fourth-largest operator of F-16s, and to acquire some 4,000 battle tanks"

"the Egyptian military cannot even fully utilize much of the state-of-the art U.S. equipment it’s gifted because it has too few troops trained to use them."
