Morocco will receive a new Canadair to fight forest fires.
On its Facebook page, the FAR-Morocco forum published photos of the Canadair CL-415EAF CN-ATS C/N:1095 from Calgary, Canada, noting that the aircraft is the second of three CL-415EAF planes acquired by Morocco to support its firefighting fleet.
The same source noted that the first aircraft, the CL-415EAF CN-ATR C/N:1090, continues the development process of the cockpit and navigation devices at Cascade Aerospace in Abbotsford Airport, Canada, to obtain certificates and approvals for the new development process with technology that will be distributed later to the rest of the fleet.
The third aircraft, the CL-415EAF CN-ATT, is undergoing airframe and engine development at the De Havilland Canada plant in Calgary.
FAR-Maroc recalls that Morocco currently has five Canadairs for firefighting.
A report presented to the Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee by Minister Delegate Abdellatif Loudiyi last November announced an investment of MAD 1.2 billion to strengthen the kingdom’s Canadair fleet in 2023, through the acquisition of three aircraft delivered gradually this year.
