 Obama Okays F-16 weapon systems for Morocco
WASHINGTON — The United States has been advancing Morocco's first F-16 multi-role fighter program.
The administration of President Barack Obama has approved a Moroccan request for support equipment for the F-16 program. In 2008, Morocco ordered 24 F-16 Block 52+ fighters in a $2.4 billion deal.
Under the latest Moroccan request, Rabat has sought support equipment and weaponry for the F-16 C/D Block 50/52. Officials said the cost of the Moroccan request was estimated at $187 million. |
