friends who stayed up late to watch the World Cup recently. After Morocco defeated Spain this time, they successfully advanced to the semi-finals, which can be regarded as the light of Africa. For this football event, Morocco is very happy. Recently, the social media of the Moroccan army even put the World Cup goalkeeper in the same frame as the imported Tianlong 50, saying that it will always be safe. Its meaning is also very obvious. Whether it is the international goalkeeper or Tianlong 50, they are impeccable in defense. This is obviously a fancy praise for domestic equipment.
According to social media reports, we saw that when the Moroccan military celebrated the excellent performance of its football team in the World Cup, it did not forget to bring its proud Denon 50 air defense system. And this is also one of the many pieces of equipment that Morocco imported from China.
Of course, Morocco’s ability to compare its national football team with the Denon 50 is not simply due to enthusiasm, it is entirely out of satisfaction with the excellent performance of the equipment. The Tianlong 50 air defense weapon was developed by North Industries and is a medium-range missile system. In 2017, according to Moroccan media reports, it officially obtained the Tianlong 50. The weapon uses SD-10A improved ground-to-air DK-10A as the interceptor bomb, uses dual-pulse rocket motors and fixed fuel, and has a maximum flight speed of 1000 m/s. It can intercept various fixed-wing fighters, helicopters and aircraft. The radar system uses IBIS-150/200 mobile three-coordinate radar, which can track 144 targets within 130 kilometers at a time and intercept 12 targets at the same time. Putting this kind of capability in African countries should be at the top air defense network level. Of course, according to the requirements of Morocco, the vehicle chassis uses the 6×6 chassis of and Mercedes-Benz . After all, oil tyrants love Mercedes-Benz, which is also understandable.
In fact, this is not the first time that Morocco has domestically produced air defense system . In 2017, the year before Tianlong 50 was obtained, Morocco also signed a contract to introduce 4 battalions of FD-2000B long-range air defense systems in 2016. In addition, Morocco's existing 390 sky shield artillery integrated short-range air defense system. Morocco has built its own short-range, medium-range and long-range air defense network of Chinese origin using a full range of North Industries products. Of course, this also provides Morocco with the leading multi-level air defense system in Africa.
Seeing this, I believe that many military fans can already understand why the Moroccan military ranks the Tianlong 50 alongside its national team. After all, with a full set of Chinese air defense system, the Tianlong 50 is the national team of the air defense weapon in the heart of Morocco. It is worth mentioning that Morocco has also imported Pterosaur 2 drones and 36 Guardian AR-2 rocket launchers from China. The tank force also has about 150 MBT-2000 tanks, which are foreign trade VT-1A. It can be said that in terms of domestic equipment, Morocco is a fan of Africa, and there are 10,000 favorites for domestic weapons.
In general, among the users of domestic foreign trade equipment, Morocco is relatively rich in national defense resources, and the imported air defense systems are all high-tech air defense systems, such as drones and , which are also relatively lucrative in foreign trade. product. From the perspective of mutual benefit, Morocco has also solved the construction of the domestic air defense system at one time. It can be said that the military industry enterprise that can provide this kind of plan and equipment is no more than one slap in the world without additional stringent conditions. It is because there is no second company except North Industries. This is probably the reason why Morocco has a special liking for Tianlong 50, not only because of the good performance of the equipment, but also because of a sense of gratitude beyond the simple transaction. There is no harm if there is no comparison. African countries have remembered all the things the West has done that make people gnash their teeth.
