According to Al-Assar, the ministry has manufactured these devices locally for the first time in cooperation with an American company. He noted that the local component in these devices reached 33% in the first phase, with expectations to reach 68% in the near future, asserting that the ministry aims to manufacture the whole product in Egypt. Al-Assar stressed that the security challenges faced by Egypt obligate the ministry to increase the production of these security machines in the current period. He pointed out that the cooperation with the NBE is not limited to providing electronic gates, but the ministry will also provide the NBE with all required products. The minister Khaled Abdel Aziz said that the cooperation protocol between the ministry of military production and the NBE reflects the state institutions' efforts to rely on local manufacturing which contribute to the Egyptian economy and industry growth.
