Egyptian Navy Elfteh First Stealth Gowind 2500 Corvette

Egypt is building a powerful navy for that part of the world.  I wonder what their final goal is?  Think about it.  They have a couple of Mistral class LHDs with a powerful component of attack helicopters to go aboard them, and now they're procuring some very capable frigates.

I don't know the current state of Egyptian seamanship but on paper they already have a pretty capable force and could be said to be the most powerful Middle Eastern naval power.
