New images from the Marrakech International Airshow 2026 revealed that the Moroccan WhAP is equipped with the UT30 MK2 turret, an unmanned combat turret manufactured by Elbit Systems. This turret is designed to integrate a 30mm cannon and a 7.62mm coaxial machine gun, with the potential to also incorporate anti-tank missiles, electro-optical systems, and advanced fire control equipment.

The turret gives the vehicle the capability to engage a wide range of ground targets and can also be equipped with munitions specifically designed to counter small aerial threats, a capability that is becoming increasingly important given the widespread use of drones in modern warfare.
