The Moroccan Government has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Embraer to launch potential joint projects in the Moroccan aerospace industry, across areas in defence, commercial aviation, and urban air mobility.
The agreement, between The Moroccan Government and Embraer, was signed by the Minister of Industry and Trade, Ryad Mezzour; the Minister Delegate to the Head of Government, in charge of Investment, Convergence and Evaluation of Public Policies, Karim Zidane; the Managing Director of the Moroccan Investment and Export Development Agency, Ali Seddiki; and Embraer Commercial Aviation President and CEO Arjan Meijer.
"Morocco is set to be a major partner for Embraer Defense and Security, and we are committed to collaborating closely with the Royal Moroccan Air Force to position the C-390 as the leading choice for their Future Tactical Airlift capabilities. Our support would include comprehensive training, maintenance, and logistics for their fleet," said Bosco da Costa Junior, President and CEO of Embraer Defense and Security. "With a growing number of countries choosing the C-390 for its outstanding performance and high availability, now is the ideal time for the Royal Moroccan Air Force to consider joining this strong community."
"This is an exciting opportunity for Embraer to develop a long-term relationship with the strong and thriving Moroccan aerospace industry," said Arjan Meijer, President and CEO of Embraer Commercial Aviation. "It's particularly pleasing that our new partners in Rabat put the same emphasis on skills and training as we do at Embraer. Education, skills and development for young people is the basis for any strong industry, and a common value for all parties."
The project of cooperation will also consider an important range of fields in incremental phases by developing training and MRO (Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul). Other fields to be explored for potential collaborations include: R&T especially in decarbonization, clean mobility, sustainable aviation, sustainable aviation fuel.
