Wonder who Egypt is planning to use these on?
Surely not the unidentified country to the northeast the train their officers to invade, that can't be.

‘There will be no adverse impact on U.S. defense readiness as a result of this proposed sale. ‘
If I were a Abrams tank crew member, I’d have a big problem with this assumption.

Lovely. Sell the Eqyptians an anti-tank missile that pierces the thin deck armor on a tank. Now who do you suppose those missiles will get used against?

"Egypt to Buy 2,000 TOW 2A Anti-Tank Missiles"
Equipped with homing devices, I hope. We could call them "Boomerang" Missiles.

Egypt to Buy 2,000 TOW 2A Anti-Tank MissilesAh, yes, the Pentagon's "Missiles for Muslims" program at work. After all, muslims need missiles, too; otherwise, they get chafed and upset and feel insulted and all.

they need these to fend off beduins with camels

The total value, if all options are exercised, could be as high as $99 million. Where is Egypt going to get $99m? (as if we don't already know)
