מי יבנה יבנה בסיס במצרים?
על מעלליו של חיל ההנדסה האמריקני לאורך 40 שנה ברחבי המזרח התיכון והים התיכון ככלי לקידום אינטרסטים והשפעה אמריקנים ניתן לקרוא בספר המופלא הבא. לעתים אחראים האמריקנים על כל שלבי התהליך - מהייזום, התכנון, העסקת הקבלנים, הביצוע, הפיקוח ותחזוקה - ולעתים על מקצתם. פעילותם משתרעת מחופי מרוקו ועד המפרץ הפרסי ומעבר לשם, מטורקיה ויוון ועד אתיופיה וסודן. מאתרי טרופו במלטה ובאיטליה, בסיסי טילים בטורקיה, צינור דלק במרוקו, סדנת רק"ם בירדן (לשיקום ושדרוג מאות טנקי פטון ל A5, נחנכה ב 1983), עורקי תקשורת ומעבדה ביולוגית במצרים, מרפאות בסעודיה, בונקרים בעומן, תחנות כוח בלוב ומה לא. 35 שנים לפני שארה"ב פלשה לאפגניסטן עסק חיל ההנדסה האמריקני בבניית כביש מהיר שיחבר בין קנדהר לקאבול ובין הרט שמעבר המדינה למעבר הגבול האירני. וכמובן שבאירן עצמה בנו בסיסים, מתקנים ומבנים מפה ועד הודעה חדשה. כמעט כל התשתיות הצבאיות במדינות המפרץ ובסעודיה תוכננו, נבנו ו/או שודרגו על ידי חיל ההנדסה האמריקני - מבסיסי הטיסה הסעודים בטאבוק וחאמיס מושייט, הנמלים בג'דה וג'ובייל, הערים הצבאיות בקאסים, אל-חאסה והקמת העיר העצומה קינג-חאליד, האקדמיה הצבאית הסעודית ועוד.

Late in the decade, NAMRU again requested assistance from the Corps. The Middle East Division responded in the spring of 1979 by awarding a design contract to the architect-engineer firm of Haines, Lundberg, Waehler of New York for a new laboratory facility in Cairo. Eighteen months later, the division awarded a construction contract to a joint venture, Dongsan Construction and Engineering Company, which combined Korean and Egyptian firms. The $7.8 million contract specified a six-story facility that provided thirty-nine thousand square feet of space for departments of virology, bacteriology, parasitology, biochemistry, and immunology. The Middle East Division’s chief of construction, Earl Kramer, participated in the groundbreaking ceremony on 30 October 1980

The division’s new responsibilities in Egypt began in November 1980 with Peace Vector I and Peace Pharaoh, projects to support multiple sales of American manufactured F–16 and F–4 aircraft to the Egyptian government. The foreign aid, amounting to $1 billion to $1.5 billion annually, that the U.S. government granted Egypt paid for the aircraft and the services to support them. The FMS cases funded weapons systems, equipment, and facilities for use by the Egyptian armed services. The U.S. Air Force Logistics Command (AFLC) acted as the designated program manager for USAF systems adapted for use by the Egyptian Air Force (EAF). When the EAF asked for assistance in upgrading its facilities at An Shas Air Base to support F–16 aircraft (a USAF weapons system), the U.S. government named the AFLC as the program manager for the project, called Peace Vector I. The EAF planned to perform the architectural, civil, and structural design as well as all the necessary construction and installation of equipment. The AFLC assumed responsibility to execute mechanical and electrical design and to procure equipment and materials not available in Egypt

Whereas Peace Vector I covered air-base facilities and systems to support aircraft, Peace Pharaoh involved installing microwave towers at various sites in Egypt to provide a communications network for logistical support between the Peace Vector facilities and the headquarters of the Egyptian Air Force. In early February 1981, the AFLC asked the Middle East Division to conduct soils investigations and to recommend appropriate foundation designs for seven microwave towers ranging in height from fifty to two hundred fifty feet.

expanded with the addition of a power plant and procurement of three generators for
the Cairo West Air Base, the home of the F–4 fighters purchased from the American
manufacturer. A year later, by November 1982, the Corps finished the design and
procurement of the power plant and completed procurement of the generators and
other equipment by April 1983. Costs for Peace Pharaoh in these first two years
amounted to nearly $3 million

The project included upgrading seventeen existing facilities and building nine new ones at Beni Suef Air Base, south of Cairo. The facilities included housing, shops, water and sewer system, hangars, maintenance facilities, warehouses, a power plant, and aircraft shelters. The Middle East Division was again responsible for mechanical and electrical design of the facilities, as well as the architectural, civil, and structural design previously performed by the Egyptian Air Force.

Shortly after its establishment by President Jimmy Carter in October 1979, the Rapid Deployment Force was renamed the Rapid Deployment Joint Task Force, superseded on 1 January 1983 by the U.S. Central Command. With Egyptian cooperation, CENTCOM decided to expand facilities at Ras Banas, an air base originally built for the Egyptians by the Soviet Union. CENTCOM wanted immediate construction of a power plant; a esalinization plant; storage for petroleum, oil, and lubricants; and a utility system to support its contingency forces. Over the summer of 1984, Congress authorized $49 million
in Military Construction, Army (MCA), funds, to be matched by the Egyptian government, for “bare-bones construction” of the CENTCOM base at Ras Banas. The facilities, maintained by the U.S. Air Force, would become a rear staging area for U.S. forces if an emergency arose in the Persian Gulf region. By late 1984, the program grew to six active contracts with architect-engineer firms

The division also began preparing for the Hawkeye program, which supported the Egyptian purchase of U.S. Navy aircraft. In 1983, using funds from an FMS case made possible by the Camp David accords, the Egyptian Armament Authority purchased for the Egyptian Air Force four Grumman Aerospace E–2C Hawkeye airborne early-warning planes and four F–4 aircraft. Scheduled for delivery inJanuary 1987, the planes were to be based at Cairo West Air Base, where thirty-five F–4s were already stationed. As in the Peace Vector programs, the Middle East Division oversaw design of mechanical, electrical, and general utility systems for existing and new facilities at Cairo West Air Base. It also managed procurement of mechanical and electrical materials. The division was responsible for mechanical and electrical design for four maintenance shops and two aircraft shelters, as well as minor rehabilitation for the E–2C aircraft and for the rehabilitation of a hangar
and maintenance shops for the F–4s.

The Hawkeye program also included a computer center and software lab at the Nasr City military installation near Cairo. In 1986, the division assumed responsibility for the design and construction of the computer center for the Egyptian Armament Authority.
