Ahoj!
Articles says Morrocco is buying F-16 50/52.

there are some contradictory "rumours"

Some say the 3 SIGMA will be choosen instead of the FREMM , others that will be the FREMM+ 3 sigma

It does because they don´t know what outfit they´re going ti get either. I wonder how that will effect the FREMM deal.

Hot DAMN! I wasn't sure there would ever be another Sigma sale. Three more is a good deal. Wonder what kind of outfitting they're going to get, as the article (as far as I can read it...) speaks of the loadout for the Indonesian ships.
