Supports Efforts for Integrated Ground Defence Capability
The Moroccan government has requested a total of 1,214 TOW-2A from the US through the Foreign Military Sales channel. The request includes engineering, technical and logistic support services and has an estimated value of U$108 million.
The US Defense Security Cooperation Agency informed Congress on 7 December of State Department approval for the potential sale, stating that, “the proposed sale of TOW-2A missiles and technical support will advance Morocco’s efforts to develop and integrated ground defence capability (and) supports Morocco and serves the interests of the Moroccan people and the United States.”
