G5 Holding Showcases Advanced Defence Systems at Marrakech Airshow 2026

The UAE defence company presents an impressive portfolio of aerospace, air defence and unmanned systems at Morocco's premier aviation event, reinforcing its position as a regional technology leader.

G5 Holding has taken centre stage at Marrakech Airshow 2026, presenting a comprehensive exhibition of cutting-edge defence technologies and industrial capabilities within the UAE National Pavilion. The showcase, held from 7 to 10 October at the Royal Moroccan Air Force Base, underscores the company’s prominence in aerospace innovation and advanced manufacturing across the Middle East.

The company’s display encompasses more than ten sophisticated products and solutions spanning aerospace, air defence systems, unmanned platforms, missile technologies and land-based systems. Featured prominently are the B-250 multi-role light attack aircraft and the B-250T training variant, representing significant achievements in domestic aviation engineering. The exhibition also highlights four distinct variants of the AlHeda missile family and the AlDeraa short-range air defence system, demonstrating comprehensive capabilities across critical defence domains.

Ground-based capabilities are equally impressive, with the Mazyad 4×4 vehicle equipped with AlHeda missile launch systems and the 8×8 Sweihan armoured vehicle—engineered for protection and versatility across diverse operational scenarios—both commanding attention from visiting military professionals and procurement specialists.

Beyond the hardware display, G5 Holding emphasises its advanced manufacturing infrastructure, encompassing production of precision parts, components and subassemblies for aerospace, land, maritime and missile applications. The company’s integrated capabilities in research, development, engineering, manufacturing and testing services position it as a comprehensive solutions provider within the defence industrial sector.

Dr. Khalifa Murad Alblooshi, Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of G5 Holding, characterised the Marrakech event as a strategic platform for engagement with government entities, decision-makers and international industry partners. “Our participation represents an important opportunity to engage with both existing and prospective partners, while gaining first-hand insight into market requirements and the evolving trends shaping the aerospace and defence sectors,” he stated. He emphasised the company’s commitment to developing enduring international partnerships through manufacturing collaboration, joint development initiatives and knowledge exchange.

The company’s participation reflects its broader strategic objective to strengthen relationships throughout the aerospace and defence sectors, expanding its network of partnerships with governmental and global enterprises. This engagement supports G5 Holding’s expansion ambitions whilst identifying fresh opportunities for international cooperation and investment.
