U.S. defense company Lyntris listed Morocco among the countries where it runs military programs for allied forces in its first quarterly report, published on November 4. Three pilot installations of its Garda C2 maritime surveillance platform have been completed in Morocco, and the system is already used by the Royal Moroccan Navy; sharing data with allied forces remains subject to security approvals.
