Operation Iron Escort 25 brought together 12 pilots of the Royal Moroccan Air Force for a strategic escort mission involving a C-130H Hercules, protected by nine F-16s: six F-16 Block 50s and three F-16 Block 52s. Two pilots were aboard the C-130, six piloted the F-16 Block 50s, and four operated the F-16 Block 52s. The operation unfolded in several phases: briefing and instructions, coordinated startup and takeoff, close formation escort accompanied by a mini airshow, followed by landing at Ben Guerir Air Base. The mission concluded with an internal ceremony recognizing the best pilots for their discipline and outstanding performance.
