Yes, Egypt has a bigger army.
And with it if they do as they’ve done in the past they’ll advance boldly on the first day and then dig in in hopes of not being dislodged after that.
Meanwhile the Turks will find some innocents in their back yard to massacre.
Be an interesting war.
Interesting that both have compulsory military service, so their armies are largely filled with poorly trained boots.
Advance and dig in was used just the one time, and with success, in 1973. The idea was to advance only to the limit of the SAM umbrella, and move enough assets across that Israel wouldn't be able to dislodge them at a reasonable cost in lives and treasure, then get a negotiated settlement, and as a kicker, Sadat also wanted a pretext to eject the Russians and team up with the US.
It all worked, but after reaching his objectives, he got called out by Assad, who was getting his ass handed to him, and hadn't known in advance of the Egyptian objectives. When Sadat got shamed into an ad hoc advance, his top general objected and was fired.
The renewed advance didn't go so well.
Having destroyed 900 Syrian tanks, the Israelis were at that point able to shift resources to the Sinai, seized a couple of Egyptian bridges, deployed their own that had been built and stashed a few years earlier, crossed the Canal, started knocking out SAM emplacements, and also cut off a third of Egypt's army east of the Canal, having it teetering on the edge of annihilation.
“And with it if they do as theyve done in the past theyll advance boldly on the first day and then dig in in hopes of not being dislodged after that.”
That was back when they were under Soviet influence and thus used modified Soviet tactics.
IIRC, they are the third largest operator of Abrams tanks although their Abrams tanks are not as capable as ours (different armor package, etc). Egypt has 1,360 Abrams, 1,716 M60A1/A3, 34 T-80,
500 T-62 (300 in storage), 260 Ramses II (modified T-55), and 580 T-55 in storage. They also have 500 T-90 tanks on order
Turkey on the other hand still uses large numbers of M60 tanks (1,532), and they have 342 Leopard 2’s, 397 Leopard 1, and 758 M48 tanks.
