Photos of the National Military Museum at Cairo, aircraft and missiles

After going through the tanks and artillery (link), it is the time of aircraft and missiles. One of the most remarkable weapon exposed in the museum is the antiship missile P-15 Termit (NATO code SS-N-2 Styx). It was used by the Egyptians to sink the Israel destroyer Eilat soon after the Six Days War. It was the first time a ship was sunk with these types of missiles.
