UK and Morocco to Hold Major Joint Military Exercises in October

"In defense we already have a very close collaboration, there will be very, very important joint military exercises in October, and we are awaiting Inshallah, a visit from our new aircraft carrier Queen Elizabeth (R08) on its return from the Far East," said Martin Simon, a guest on the Grand Format show on the Le360 website.

The HMS Queen Elizabeth weighs 62,000 tons, measures 280 meters long by 70 meters wide. The largest aircraft carrier in the history of the Royal Navy, and also the largest ship in Europe, the aircraft can accommodate up to 70 aircraft. It is expected to participate in the joint military exercises to be held next October in Morocco.

In 2019, elements of the Royal Armed Forces (FAR) and the British defense had conducted military exercises under the supervision of the US Army as part of the "Judicious Response" and "Epic Guardian 19" operations.
