PROJECT INFORMATION | - SECRET PROJECT - In order to serve as home bases of the new Egyptian National Guard naval component, consisting of Project 205 Mod missile boats, the Egyptian Government would secretly order the construction of a network of concealed bunkers on the egyptean mediterranean and red sea coasts, separated from the Navy bases. All bases would be concealed to avoid aerial detection and accessible through secure land entrances. The missile boats would have docking stations within the bunker and 3 entrances large enough to operate. Each bunker would consist of: - Mooring spaces for up to 200 Missile boats on three large and long docks (with enough space to perform maintenance and loading tasks), with enough space between each of them to host the boats and launch and mantian them. - Storage and depots for supplies and armament. - Mechanic and maintenance facilities. - Living quarters for crews and staff. - Self-sufficient power generator. - Encrypted communication systems. - 3 independent water exits for the boats to leave quickly and efficiently. - Port facilities. - Reinforced structure. - Access infrastructure and perimeter fence and detection system. Locations (in restricted military areas and off-limits to civilian population and maritime traffic): 31°30'26.5"N 25°25'36.7"E (Al Mugarrab Wells Base) 31°28'14.0"N 26°46'45.0"E (EL Rakham Base) 30°54'59.1"N 28°50'38.0"E (Bi'r As Sultan Base) 31°36'57.6"N 25°09'12.6"E (Sallum Base) 22°27'28.4"N 36°20'56.8"E (Abdo Base) |
