Sale of Caracal helicopters: Morocco and Airbus at an impasse?

Morocco and Airbus Helicopters have not yet reached an agreement for the sale of 18 H225M (Caracal) for the benefit of the Royal Armed Forces (FAR). Discussions are continuing to finalize this order.

The presence of Airbus Helicopters CEO Bruno Even in the delegation accompanying President Emmanuel Macron during his state visit to Morocco at the end of October did not make it possible to conclude this transaction. The French manufacturer also failed to secure this order for Caracal for the benefit of the Royal Armed Forces during the Marrakech Air Show, the Marrakech air show, which was held from October 30 to November 2.
