"Some newspapers reported that Morocco is planning to supply the Whap 8x8 armored vehicles that will be manufactured in Morocco with combat turrets of 105mm and 120mm caliber. Some newspapers speculated that the Royal Moroccan Armed Forces will turn to European or Indian companies to manufacture these combat turrets.
According to our direct sources at TASL, this news is inaccurate. Morocco will not supply its armored vehicles with combat turrets from Indian companies, as has been confirmed to us several times. The logical choice is to work with Elbit Systems, which has already decided and begun building production lines for its systems in Morocco.
Our sources also did not rule out the possibility that Elbit will develop and manufacture combat turrets specifically for Morocco's requirements, even if it is a 120mm or 105mm caliber. The Whap 8x8 armored vehicle has already appeared with the UT30MK2 combat turret, with a 30mm caliber, which is manufactured by the same company.
The research and development process between Morocco and Elbit Systems could reach the point of equipping the Moroccan armored vehicle and other systems with all the necessary combat and defensive means, while transferring the manufacturing technology locally to Morocco, and the company is extremely open to this option.
Until this information is confirmed or denied, the door remains open to other companies, provided they provide high-tech combat turrets for Moroccan armored vehicles, while transferring the technology and manufacturing to Morocco.
These exclusive images from the Atlantic Defence and Armament Observatory show some of the versions that will be adopted for the future Moroccan armored vehicle."
