Aircraft from Egypt and the Republic of Korea (ROK) jointly staged the Pyramids Air Show 2022 on Wednesday.
Egyptian air forces’ “Silver stars” aerobatics team and ROK’s “Black Eagles” aerobatic team jointly launched the show at the Pyramids scenic spot in Giza, according to Egyptian media reports.
Egypt was represented at the show by the Silver Stars aerobatic team, South Korea by the Black Eagles.
In addition, Egyptian Gazelle helicopters (made in France) and paratroopers were involved in the air show.
The Egyptian Defense Ministry says the purpose of the airshow is to demonstrate the friendly relations between Egypt and South Korea.
Egyptian media reported that the South Korean aerobatic team “Black Eagles” arrived in Egypt on August 1 and held several joint training sessions with Egyptian counterparts before the start of the air show.
