"One station was built in Javelin Oved at a distance of about 40 km. east of the Suez Canal." A "second post was in the Gulf of Suez on a hill between Jabel al-Galla and Kabir." "Equipping Egypt with state-of-the-art radars is part of the accelerating process of arming and building military infrastructure, mainly in eastern Egypt and the Sinai.
