Egypt's Airpower and the GERD: Strike Options and Strategic Limits

Original: Egyptian Airpower and the GERD: From Strike Capability to Strategic Limits

Debate is resurfacing over Egypt's capacity to use airpower against Ethiopia's Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam, and why military action has not materialised. Commentators argue that while Egyptian forces retain strike capability, distance, air-refuelling constraints, Ethiopian air defences and diplomatic costs impose real strategic limits, keeping the dispute over the Nile's waters in the political rather than military arena.

Why now: Ongoing tensions over the GERD and Nile water shares keep discussion of a possible Egyptian military option alive.
