US exports of aerospace products to Morocco passed $1bn in the first seven months of 2026. The figure reached $1.006bn between January and July, up 35.4% from $743m during the same period in 2025, according to US Census Bureau data. The number does not mean that Morocco bought more than $1bn worth of complete aircraft. The US data covers a wide range of aerospace products, including aircraft, helicopters, spacecraft, jet engines, flight simulators and autopilot systems.
The aerospace category is listed as Code 08 in the US Advanced Technology Products system. Weapons are counted separately under Code 09.
US aerospace exports reached $148m in July, up from $118m in June. Imports of aerospace products from Morocco also increased, reaching $28m in July compared with $17m a month earlier.
The two-way trade in aerospace products has grown this year. US imports from Morocco reached $124m in the first seven months, compared with $102m during the same period in 2025. That is a 21.6% increase.
Aerospace products made up almost a quarter of all US goods exported to Morocco during the first seven months of 2026.
Total US exports reached $4.069bn, up from about $3.249bn during the same period last year. Aerospace exports alone accounted for about $263m of the $820m increase.
US exports also reached their highest monthly level of the year in July, at $686.3m. Imports from Morocco stood at $185.3m, giving the US a monthly trade surplus of about $501m.
The wider aerospace industry in Morocco has also expanded in recent years. The sector has more than 140 companies and employs about 20,000 people, according to industry estimates.
Companies including Boeing, Pratt & Whitney Canada and Safran have operations or supply-chain activities in the country.
Boeing has worked with the government on an aerospace supply-chain network. Pratt & Whitney has expanded manufacturing at the Midparc industrial zone near Casablanca. Safran operates aircraft-engine maintenance facilities in the country.
Royal Air Maroc plans to increase its fleet towards 200 aircraft by 2037. That is expected to support further demand for aircraft, engines and maintenance services.
US-Moroccan trade has grown more broadly as well. US goods exports rose from $3.9bn in 2023 to $5.37bn in 2024 and $5.53bn in 2025.
The two countries have had a free-trade agreement since 2006.
