ALDAR/

In recent days, the skies of Morocco have witnessed intensive testing of the KC-390 military aircraft, in a preparatory step towards its integration into the Royal Moroccan Air Force fleet. This testing is part of a rigorous evaluation process before making a final decision on its purchase.

The CEO of the Brazilian company Embraer had previously expressed his enthusiasm for reaching an agreement with the Moroccan side, indicating that negotiations were progressing positively. However, the Moroccan Air Force continues to subject the aircraft to thorough testing to ensure its suitability for operational and logistical requirements before finalizing the deal.

In a related context, Embraer has strengthened its presence in Morocco with significant investments exceeding one billion dollars. These investments have contributed to the development of the country’s aviation industry by transferring technology and expertise, supporting Morocco’s efforts to become a regional hub in this strategic sector.
