The Royal Air Force participates in “The Royal International Air Tattoo,” the largest military aviation exhibition in the world, held annually in the summer in the United Kingdom.

The official account of the exhibition on “X” said, “Two F-16 fighters belonging to the Royal Armed Forces are participating in an air show this week alongside F-35 and Norwegian Yellow Sparrows fighters and other military aircraft.”

On the official website of the “huge” military event, the organizers said, “The Royal Moroccan Air Force is participating for the first time in the exhibition after an absence of many years by sending two F-16 fighters.”

This exhibition attracts up to 200,000 spectators from various parts of Britain and the world, according to the same source.

The exhibition aims to raise revenues from ticket sales to support a charitable fund through the participation of various international armies in military air shows. The organizers stress that “the goals in the end are humanitarian.”

The Moroccan Air Force’s participation comes days after the conclusion of F-16 aircraft exercises as part of the “African Lion” exercises with the United States Army.
