Photo Comment

While most of the aircraft displayed by Morocco's FAR (Royal Armed Forces) at Aeroexpo had an emphasis on the humanitarian mission, this Gazelle clearly has offensive capability and can launch anti-tank missiles. From the Escadre Hélicoptère at Rabat-Salé. Morocco had 24 and exhibited one in the show halls fully stripped to a shell. Another was placed in the static park by French company Aerotech in "Gazelle Modernisée" guise
