Possible T-90 acquisition by Egypt

According to several Russian blogs, Egypt could have signed a contract for 400-500 T-90MS. The dea would include final assembly in local facilities. At the moment there is no more information. Is the contract is indeed signed, it would be a huge success for Uralvagonzavod, manufacturer of the vehicle.

In recent years Egypt has acquired large quantites of Russian hardware (S-300, MiG-29, Ka-52). The financing would be provided by the Middle East monarchies, who want to avoid Iranian influence in the region.
