(3:31) Technically it's an LHD and not a carrier. (4:30) Due to geography and differing capabilities, a naval invasion of the Beleric islands would be out of the question, not would be unlikely to see fighting, it would be no fighting, period. Overall, I do know the scenario limitations, but it needs to be said that realistically, Spain invokes article 5 and Morocco looses any chance of victory. And Spain would have the leverage, even if there's no NATO, of being able to bomb effectively anything in Morocco at will - which means a crippled industry, and a very angry population.
Spanish here. Ceuta and Melilla are doomed in case of war. But can Spanish forces disembark on western Sahara? There's a separatist movement there against Morocco.
@@antimatter4733 Well, in this particular case it wouldn't. Argelia would help Spain and they would probably invade Western Sahara. NATO wouldn't intervene since African holdings are not covered by article 5. And the EU would only give logistical support. So the only countries directly involved would be Spain, Argelia, Morocco, Western Sahara and maybe some Moroccan allies.
@@orached morocco has two major separatist mouvement the rif one and the sahaara one ...but in spain they are not armed in morocco they are and they are supported by algeria which is far more powerful than morocco
@@wanderer10k But Gibraltar also voted overwhelmingly to stay in the EU in the Brexit referendum. And Britain may become so diplomatically weak and desperate for trade deals that their hold will lessen.
Britains also are interested part,if Spain loses , Muslims won,and in the future you are the next,after Ceuta y Melilla Gibraltar is next for them,and if in future years Spain falls you will have a big,big, big problem...¿can you imagine a Iran second part just in your backyard?
I just want to make a little note. It is true that Spain operates old submarines of the galerna class, but in April 2021 a modern submarine of the S-80 class was launched and it's in the process of passing the tests of the navy , with another 3 under construction. This submarine has modern weapons and navigation systems, as well as the ability to launch BGM-109 Tomahawk missiles from them.
@OthDeb But could starve morocco from imports and being able to marshal their navy, as they can lay mines and are able to camp outside of ports to wait to strike. and the moroccan ground army isn't big enough to cover all its fronts, such as algeria, western sahara, and spain has rapid reaction forces and airforce to bring help immediately.
to people in these replies, spains army is far better equipped and trained than Moroccan soldiers. One company of Spanish troops would probably be able to hold off nearly a thousand
Morocco and Spain actually have decent relations, they've kind of just parked the territories issue indefinitely. They actually have two high voltage direct current (HVDC) electricity cables running under the Strait of Gibraltar between the two countries, primarily to trade renewable electricity generated by solar power instillations.
@@CarlAlex2 there are misunderstandings between morocco and spain but in reality the 2 do not actually choose war the relations between morocco and spain are still healthy and strong
@@CarlAlex2 Several reasons. To divert attention from internal problems. And for the dream of returning to the Almohad caliphate and conquering the Canary Islands, Ceuta and Melilla, as well as southern Spain. Although Spain argues that Morocco is not the caliphate of which they believe heirs. There are also old hatreds between Maghreb and Hispanics.
@@laertes9505 Maybe you should reflect on what I was responding to - the claim that Spanish-Maroccan relations are friendly. That the Mohammedans want to rule the world is nothing new.
You forgot to mention the Spanish defence industry, far ahead of Moroccan's that's nearly non-existence. Apart from that, there is a naval base in the Canary Islands and an airbase. Spain could strike from the north and the east simultaneously so Moroccan army would be forced to split in half to defence their mainland and Ceuta and Melilla could resist. Also, Spain could bomb Tanger, Casablanca or Rabat with thermobaric bombs if Morocco dares to invade Ceuta and Melilla once the airspace is on the Spanish side.
morocco have a huge advantage over Spain , millions of Moroccans live there and they say long live the king . secondly morocco is preparing itself heavily in the defense sector while making ceuta and melila a liability for pain
@@oussama123654789 As soon as Morocco attacks Ceuta and Melilla, Spain will attack from the north and Sahara border simultaneously and Algeria will attack from the east. A naval blockage will be set by spain and land blockage by Algeria. Also, Polisario Front will be armed and will recover their land. You will be asking for mercy in 2 weeks

@@Mickeywonderwall hey hey!! Looks like you watch too much crappy movies...hahaha...if ever a war is launched between our countries we will repeat what "las fuerzas Regulares indígenas" did to your "abuelas"!!!...
There are a few things with this video. First of all, training level. Spain has a profesional standing army in which every soldier has at least 3 years of training. Morocco has an army reliant on conscription (which means that 2 years is the most training the average soldier has). Specially in Ceuta and Melilla: the Spanish forces there are elite units that have historically been able to overcome numerically superior foes. Second, the naval disparity (which is shown) is so big that the Spanish fleet would be able to blockade Morocco without fear of retaliation, or if anything destroy the Moroccan fleet (not to mention that all the Spanish frigates have AEGIS systems) which would in turn allow Spain to send reinforcements or even launch landings in Moroccan shores. Melilla is within range of a military base of the Spanish Army of the Air (our Airforce) in Armilla, Granada, from which airplanes and helicopters can fly sending reinforcements or launching strike missions against the Moroccan forces. Third, the abilities of the Typhoon and the F-18 (modernised) against ground targets. It's true that the Moroccan artillery is self-propelled and can be easily moved, but it's also true that both fighters can track those moves with radar, and can both move faster and launch guided missiles that can track the artillery (in order to destroy it). And, fourth and last, most of the Moroccan equipment is imported from other countries, while most of the Spanish equipment is produced locally as the Spanish policy when it comes to acquiring military equipment is to buy production licenses and then produce locally, or even co-develop together with other countries. Thus, Spain would be able to replenish any losses in equipment, while Morocco would have it more difficult, specially if Spain declares a blockade of the Moroccan coast.
first b.s, morocco does not have an army reliant on conscription, we have a standing proffesional army, conscription was brought back in limited numbers only in 2019 and was cancelled next year, morocco has a big enough land army that it can take ceuta and melilla and fortify them, spain would be limited to air raids and morocco has decent air defences and artillery, spain loses, deal with it
Hahahahahahahahahahahaha no. I mean. We've made big landings in Morocco before, we have better training and by dominating the skies we can end the existance of your pathetic dictatorship.

why u ignore UAV's ??? armenia was have better Air defence than spain but they lose bcuz of TB2 drones. also Morroco has tb2 drones and other drones also they have Koral systems. to be honest that was scenario just bullshit.
if u look this guy old videos like armenia azerbeycan he was not talk about drones and showed like armenia was strong like azerbaycan. but in reallity in few weeks azerbaycan easy with drones. even armenia lose s300 air defence systems. if morroco buy one good air defence systems then no1 can attack them. example look Turkey..

Binkov forgot to mention that Spain develops and builds its own submarines the S-80 plus class. This submarines are of the best quality for conventional submarines and in the next couple of years four of them will join the navy. Spain, France and Germany are working on a 6th generation fighter jet and the Spanish army enjoys much superior training and equipment than the Moroccan army. Urban warfare would also equilibrate the difference in forces in Ceuta in Melilla. It is important to remember that many Moroccan citizens live in those cities and that Spain enjoys naval and air superiority. Spain also counts with very professional special forces such as the legion and also counts with many desert warfare trained soldiers. It is very likely that any attack on Ceuta and Melilla would be countered by attacks on Casablanca, Tangiers etc which are coastal cities. I therefore do not agree with Binkov that Morocco would win, how can they when they are outmatched in air and sea and their army would be locked against strong fortified cities that are continuously resupplied and count with many Moroccan citizens as a deterrent
I absolutely agree with you. Not to mention Spain has a good portion of the military with combat experience in Afghanistan, Irak, Mali and even some left from Kosovo - Bosnia war in the Balcans. Yet Morocco haven't seen action since hitting on 10 year old kids in the Sahara
@@0043-r7i otherwise the strong countries of Europe, Spain would not have been anything. Spain is just a country that receives subsidies from Europe in order to be strong. Did you forget your defeat in northern Morocco, had it not been for the strong intervention of France and in the desert as well?
@@ayoub-7840 The Spanish army has proven its superiority in many wars in the last five years, apart from its advanced arsenal and technological capabilities against any regular army. Morocco does not have any chance against Spain, neither now nor after a hundred years, it cannot confront it. You cannot compare an army that fought many From the wars in the last five years with an army that could not win a war on its borders against a group of Saharas with light guns.
Just a couple of notes. Moroccan Spanish relation is not that bad. Spain is Morocco's first economic partner. The relationship is complicated... Morocco's border with Algeria are completed closed (that's a bad relationship!) making the country a virtual island. Spain could then blockade Morocco. It's interesting to think about what economic impact would the closing of the Gibraltar Straight have...
I could assure you that algeria will not stand still while a nato member attacking a neighboring country.. I mean certainly they don't want war.. But a destabilized morco is no good for them either..Algerian threat to go to war against Spain will make Spain think twice about it....
There was an incident on one of the Spanish islets off the shores of Morocco. A few Moroccan cost guards landed there and rose a Moroccan flag. They were later attested in an assault of Spanish Navy seals and later routed back to Morocco handcuffed. Algeria supported Spain's sovereignty on the islet.
Good report. Just forgot one detail, Spain has a Marine Brigade whose main function is to open a second front. The Moroccan army could not be launched exclusively on Ceuta and Melilla. On the other hand remember that in naval units the tonnage is not so important, for example the Spanish ships have the Aegis system.
and we have the bayraktar and coral system and and launch missile with 400km range and can launch many drones as missiles ....AND DELILAH ANTI RADAR MISILE and we have harpoon missile for your navy ...patriot pac 2 and 3 and hq 9 anti air missiles for your jets . why attacking while we can bombard with more than 1000 canons ....spanish lack canons ............ FOR the moroccan sahara .. go there our amy iS controling every inch in it and the separatist are living in TINDOUF ALGERIA ...not in the sahara as you media tell you ..... BY THA WAY BINKOV FORGOT WEAPONS THAT MOROCCO HAS
The only statement that Blinkov made is that Spain can`t invade Morocco. And Morocco would have moderate victory because it would get ceuta and melila.
@@mouradinius the Taliban couldn’t do shit before the Americans left and they aren’t a standard military force like Morocco. You made a terrible comparison.
"Spanish heavy equipment would not see much action..." yeah, sure, because using a simple ferry is just impossible for Spain with its total control of the sea and almost total control of the air. It would look a bit like the war in Libya a few years ago. Morocco would just slowly get bombed into oblivion.
why u ignore UAV's ??? armenia was have better Air defence than spain but they lose bcuz of TB2 drones. also Morroco has tb2 drones and other drones also they have Koral systems. to be honest that was scenario just bullshit.
example 13:50 he say heli not enough for help islands but he not talking about Tb2 or other drones which ones can easy go to there. the guys still living old times dont know anything new war rules
I know the rules of your scenario's ignores third parties but this war would be lost by the side that took the first shot at a civilian cargo ship moving through the Straits of Gibraltar. It's just too important an international shipping route for other countries to allow it to be restricted by a local war.
@@Gargoloso I'm referring to the fact that the US has the world's largest and most powerful navy. They aren't going to let the Gibraltar strait become a battleground. It's the only point where trade from the Suez and Black Sea can pass into the open Atlantic.
The Spanish Legion garrison in Ceuta would provide a stiff resistance, the symbolic importance of the birthplace of the legion would add to it. Can you please make a video of West Germany vs East Germany during the 1970-80's
Or East and West Germany combine forces to attack the Russian Soviets who are attacking NATO. Then attack Poland. There were mutterings at the time that Russia's allies would attack it if WW3 broke out, but maybe that was just propaganda.
@@luisluis6311 Doesn’t Algeria support the Polisario front against Morocco? Like Algeria literally just lets Sahrawi PF fighters shuttle back and forth between western Sahara and the Tindouf camp in western Algeria
I've seen your analisys and, according to it, Spain would achieve both control of the seas and air supremacy. So I can't see how this ends in victory for Morocco, even if they manage to occupy Ceuta and Melilla. Morocco would remain blockaded and prone to airstrikes, so in the long run it simply collapses.
It's for entertainment bro. In real wars each will try to destroy the enemy essential infrastructure. Airports, sea ports, bridges... Other countries with interests will show up to defend their investments. Chains of supply freeze. Humanitarian crisis... I am Moroccan and I assure you no military war would happen between us. Diplomatic wars though...
HELLO?! Apparently Morocco has better artillery than Spain... So technically they'll use their air defense system. And from my recent personal research they have a decent air defense system 😒
Soooooo, Spain got absolute air and sea supremacy but decides to end the war and give away ceuta and melilla.... i dont think war works that way. Spain win
Morocco is the 8 biggest market for Spain export More than half of Spain exports to Africa are to Morocco Spain is also Morocco biggest market The trade between the 2 country is more than 15 billions dollars Both countries are kingdom The king of Morocco end the king of Spain usually call each other brothers There gonna be no wars between this because both country control the straight of Gibraltar ( the backbone of world maritime trade)
Ormuz, Gibson, Suez & Dardanelos... that our belived enemies Brits Know very well since 500 years. Cheers. What should happens with POLISARIO & Argelia...?
This is an interesting thought experiment, but even without the help of other countries, Spain would have quite some possibilities. These are some I have thought up in a couple of minutes. I'm sure there are more and better ways. 1.- If Spain has the air and the sea dominated (as the video proposes), why would Spain end the war? Bombing a couple of ports and airports, and blocking the maritime transport, Morocco has no possibility to import or export anything. Most of Morocco's exports go through Spain anyway. To the east the border with Algeria is closed. To the north and west is Spain. To the south the Sahara and the Polisario. 2.- Bomb the water supply for agriculture. Wait a couple of months, let hunger make its thing, and wait until the Moroccan people topple their own government. 3.- Another possibility. There are about 1 million Moroccans in Spain. Take them, send them to Ceuta and Melilla and expel them through the borders, and let Morocco deal with them. Just like Morocco did a couple of month ago, but in style. Let's see how the country manages with 1 mio. refugees. 4.- Spain could also build in a short time a thermobaric bomb. The blueprints exist already and the bomb was tested. A couple of those would be enough. Morocco would never be able to do the equivalent to Spain, as it has not the capability to strike in depth. They would never reach Madrid, not to talk about Santander or Bilbao. Spain could bomb Rabat or Tangier to ashes. 5.- Block the strait of Gibraltar and send international trade into a spin (remember the Ever Given?). Let's see what happens. The thing is, everything would depend on how far the Spanish government would be willing to go.
Theromabric bombs are, in fact, in inventory for the spanish air force, plus this video focuses on the defense of ceuta and melilla, when in reality spain would conduct landings on other areas to drive away focus from those two cities and then take the surrounding areas of the cities and fortify on better positions than just the two enclaves. TLD i agree with you
@@morosultanate692 Moroccan forces would never be able to reach the peninsula. Really low transport capbilities and surpassed in both air and maritime forces.
What it is really is a joke, to begin with, it is the title, it cannot be Spain VS Morocco, if not Morocco VS troops from Ceuta and Melilla. It seems that the troops on the peninsula would continue to play cards and the transport and landing ships would be cleaning up. There are so many errors that they are not worth commenting on. Which morocco has the most troops? We are lost! Nobody in the country would think of making a call to enlist more men. And so everything. He trusts everything to the fact that he has many more infantrymen, but to have them available he has to empty the Sahara, with the Polisario and Algeria there. This man has no idea of logistics and quartermaster and the strategy of war even less. Lo que es realmente es una broma, para empezar, es el título, no puede ser España VS Marruecos, si no Marruecos VS tropas de Ceuta y Melilla. Parece que las tropas en la península seguirían jugando a las cartas y los barcos de transporte y desembarco estarían de limpieza. Hay tantos errores que no merece la pena comentarlos. ¿Qué marruecos tiene más tropas? ¡Estamos perdidos! A nadie en el país se le ocurriría hacer un llamamiento a alistar más hombres. Y así todo. Lo fía todo a que tiene muchos mas hombres de infantería, pero para tenerlos disponibles tiene que vaciar el Sahara, con el Polisario y Argelia por ahí. Este hombre no tiene ni idea de logística e intendencia y de la estrategia de la guerra aún menos.
the capture of 160.000 from the city capture may be the reason, eighter it makes the public opinion claim to end the war but rescue the people or to figh back in retaliation
In my opinion I highly doubt moroccos victory. Spain has really experienced soldiers and even has the oldest units in the world . Also spain has increased military spending which would increase to around 30 billion in defense spending and would allow the purchase of the f35 B that the navy has been waiting for and maybe building another amphibious aircraft carrier . During this years spain has also been making huge improvements due to their projects such as the f110 that would become the best frigates active at that time or the s80s ( would have 6 units in total including the s70s) or FCAS . A huge factor that would change everything would be the fact that spain is part of nato and that the most likely thing is that they would get supplies from all nations of nato. Another factor that could also influence in this unlikley war is the volunteering of spanish citizens to try and defend their homes from morocco . At the end of the day this war it is very difficult to know who would win and who would lose since as I mentioned there are many factors that influence .
Uh, Morocco is a Third World Country. Falklands War all over again. Imagine if 2018 Morocco went back to the year 1718 BCE. That would actually be fair.
@@christiandauz3742 bro you think spain is a powerfull country? Seriously you think that? wake up my dear spain in far from being strong if we compare it to real stong countries.

The problem is that you think that spain is too strong. No my dear its not. And let me tell you something. Spain fear that morocco gets stronger because they were several wars between the two countries in the past.
If they want to keep this war between them, it would be like trying to walk to the other side of a room full of shattered glass without getting cut. Since right in the middle of the crossfire, there's a little UK territory daring them to be hit
The question dared to be asked: what is the UK doing there 🤔 But no worries ✋ We will defend it during such war and then give it back to the UK because we'd rather deal with a country that resort to reason instead of a butthurt Spain that can't look past 711

I doubt Spain would stop the war effort right after losing Ceuta and Melilla. Why stop when Morocco doesn't have an opposing force? That's exactly when Spain can retake the cities and force Morocco into submission, making use of their superior remaining Air Force and Navy. Also, you didn't take into consideration that the F100 are extremely capable AEGIS AAW destroyers that would negate large areas of airspace and make life very difficult for the Moroccan air force, even from the safety of Spanish ports. On the other hand, very entertaining video. I'll leave you with a like :)
@Timur Sayfullah international community will be already upset with morocco because of the civilian casualties in ceuta and melilla. Moroccos economy will colapse, and the sultan will agree to terms (otherwise he risks to be remove by an internal coup). I dont think that a war is going to end just when the losing side decides that its convinient. I dont think war works that way.
@Timur Sayfullah sorry but in case morrocco takes the territories the war continues till spain has no other option that give away that territories. Thats how war works, its not somekind of game with a rule saying "hey if take what i want we stop".
@Timur Sayfullah Ceuta and Melilla are from Spain and the European Union. Morocco illegally annexed the territory of the Sahara, without asking permission from the Saharawis, something that the UN and almost all of Africa reject.
@Timur Sayfullah Yes, yes, of course: And the Spanish empire is going to annex Morocco, California, Holland and the Philippines again. And the Mongols are going to annex Iran and Russia again.
Mh... I think there are some points that the video didn't account for that would make the outcome of the war being different. 1. Differences in the fighters. When you use jet fighters, it's extremely important to know how behave each fighter and their weaponry. Eurofighters are planes designed to be extremely maneuverable as well as fast (can reach Mach2+ with afterburners and Mach1.2 without them). They are equiped with MBDA Meteor AAM, which is an AAM able to reach Mach4 speed and with a range of 150km, being the one with the longest range, and deadly if fired from 40 to 60km. Now, there's the fact that the eurofighter has been praised for almost any pilot that used it and that have won several practice combats. Why am I saying this? In the video, it's said that the ratio of planes shot down would be 1:1, while that is only possible when the two fighters are identical. In a real combat situation, having a better weapon, electronics and a plane designed for a specific role matters a lot. The Typhoon has shown that it can outfight and win several enemy planes with little to no casualties on its side even when outnumbered (Typhoon Meet, Seville, 2008, where 8 Typhoons fought 27 enemies and won without casualties; and DACT, Canary Islands, 2009 where 2 Typhoons fought 8 F-15 Eagle, scoring 3 and 4 kills on the F-15). So, in a scenario where the Moroccan's F-16 are not upgraded to the V version (and that is mostly cos I don't know the specs of this version), they will not stand a chance against a Typhoon scuadron. What would happen in this case? Spain could lose some planes, but by no means would be a 1:1 or 1:3 ratio for sure. 1st because the superiority of the Typhoon and 2nd cos for each F-16 that Morocco has, Spain has 3 Typhoons. If the Typhoons can already outmatch the F-16s when the are outnumbered, they should stomp them when they are the ones who outnumbers. 2. Behavior of the artillery. Since Spain would have control of the seas, they can use their artillery in order to support both, Ceuta and Melilla, from the seas. In the first states of the war, the focus of Spain would be to secure a seaway that would allow to evacuate the civilians to the mainland. Achieved that, the main focus of the navy should be to provide artillery fire in order to both maim Moroccan's infantry/tanks and AA defenses. Maybe Melilla would be harder to defend, but in Ceuta, given its geography, the Termopilae strat can be used in order to hold the line. 3. Several places for landing. Securing sea and air superiority and being able to maim Moroccan's AA defenses, army and tanks from afar, there's a lot of places which can be used to land. Maybe Morocco diivided it's army between those who invade Ceuta, those Who invade Melilla and those who try to invade Canary Islands. If they have an army of 170k soldiers, divided by 3 that means that they will have almot 60k soldiers for each front. Suposing that no contry will recruit more soldiers from the populace, Spain, even using all it's army, would be able to just to fight in equal numbers in one front. That means that Spain must be wiser and use its advantage. If the Moroccan army is spreaded in order to defend all the coasts, then a bomb from air or artillery fire from the ships can make a hole and, if the army is put together, then they will sustain several damage from the same air or sea attaks ehy Spanish troops land away from them and join the fight from the rearguard. 4. Use of special forces. Spain has the G.O.E., a group of elite soldiers that can infiltrate in enemy territory and perform several missions like destroying AA defenses or cut supply lines. Both actions would mean that either the aircraft can enter in Morocco air space and perform bombings in key places, like the capital, and that the soldiers in the vanguard will not get reinforces or supplies. 5. War Goals. In case the war starts, Morocco and Spain will have different goals. While Morocco could set for invading Ceuta and Melilla (and even the Canaries), Spain would want to defend them AND assert control over Morocco. Why? Cos being able to control the strench is one of the most valuable strategic points Spain could have. That's why Spain would focus in a longer war even if that means to lose control over Ceuta and Melilla. They would like to lose a battle in order to win war.

I think the Spanish air force and air defence are a bit underrated in this scenario. Id claim that morrocos airpower would be almost entirely negated by spanish airforce and patriot units. Its not that fun to attack a defensive position in a conventional war without any air support while the enemy has almost full air support.

Esas islas fueron regalos de los propios marroquies para que el ejercito español del defendiese de las incursiones de tribus bereberes. No asi Ceuta y Melilla que siempre fueron españolas.
Interesting to imagine, but it will never happen as the US, Britain and the rest of Western Europe would force both Spain and Morocco to not start anything, and would quickly meddle in and extinguish any potential escalation between them as there are strategic and economic interests on the line in that zone, and another conflict zone with a humanitarian crisis and rise of new terror groups so close to Europe would be catastrophic and the last thing the world needs with all the chaos going on. The only ones who would like a war to happen are bored Spanish/Moroccan teenagers in these comments.. plus Russia, Iran and their vassal Algeria, for obvious reasons to anyone who keeps an eye on the region, and these reasons can be summarized into "land, gas/energy, hegemony, control"
I agree, if a war happens between both nations, the first thing that would happen (at least in my country, Spain) is the local population protesting for the end of the war.
Spain and Morocco also have quite good relations, Morocco currently is a defensive army so if Spain launches an offensive they'd lose, but overall I don't see it happening.

Morocco has the US and israel , specially israel bcz the majority of the jewish ppl are from morocco and the kingdom served them several times , morocco does not show off with his allies but the history has clarified that this land is the cimetry of every state that wanted to attack the kingdom
In a real scenario with NATO allies and such, thing would look very different. USA would waltz in and say "yes, we have lots of old missile inventory we want to get rid of". :P
NATO article 5 doesn't apply to colonial disputes in my understanding. Spain would be on its own, although allies might help with fuel and ammo. Don't forget that France and Turkey will likely support Morocco in some shape or form. France has a lot of business interest in Morocco.

You’re very knowledgeable Binkov, I just question why you never make allowances for special forces? In this particular scenario. Attacks on isolated costal infrastructure. The vulnerability of Morocco as 90% of their population is on the coast. 5 of their 7 airbases are in the north. The Moroccans would be out of the air war in days. Air artillery/ naval support as well as reenforcement of ground troops makes taking the the Spanish territory a tall order. Large concentration of Moroccan troops would be smashed. Ships on harbour or planes on airfields would be destroyed before the had a chance to fire a shot. My big question is who has the most munitions. It’s up to Spain to pull the sharp teeth out of Morocco. Only quest is how long that would take. An occupation of Spanish territory could result in reprisal attacks on any of Morocco’s cities. Without allies means no diplomatic pressure. I think this would wake up a Spanish sleeping giant. Resulting in a total war against Morocco.
Actively targeting troop barracks before they are deployed would be political suicide. Defending the two exclaves is not going to get much public support when people worldwide discover they are actually in Africa. I disagree with Binkov, they can be defended by Spain alone but at the cost of 30,40,000 dead Moroccans. Also, Binkovs own rules - no 3rd party. This is unlikely as nato is contractually bound to help. Thus you will see French and Italian planes laying waste to Moroccan front forces, at which point Casablanca decides it's not worth risking massive losses going up against air supremacy.
@@jaybee2402 yeah good points all 👍🏻 I’m just arguing within the context of Binkovs scenario however unlikely. If it’s Spain on Morocco 1v1 you need to pretend the rest of the world is busy doing something else that they would ignore what’s happening. 👍🏻
@@TrueWeej Yeah I don't know why he did such a video without starting it with, "nato would be involved and any war would be over in 48 hours". It's intriguing to speculate on unlikely wars breaking out, but Spain is a nato member, ANY military attack on her by a non-member has a fixed outcome. The French have decades of experience fighting in North Africa. That's the fundamental reason Spain allowed 160,000 of her citizens to settle in those two exclaves, she wouldn't have allowed it if she wasn't confident any attack from Africa would be crushed in hours.
Morocco's weakness is the western sahara region. Its directly across the canaries, we'd send commandos and air support to stur up insurgency in the area promissing to support independence. I'd divide Morocco's land forces in two making it harder to resist a land invasion from the north.
The problem, Spain doesn’t want to talk. A lot of history behind, and old demons surface now and then. But I think if wisdom prevails, Spain should sit down and discuss. As Moroccans, we will never ever forget these enclaves, and we can’t get them now, we will eventually do.
Wouldn't Spain attack the Moroccan possessions in the Sahara from the Canary islands? It could gain a lot of valuable territory with relatively few troops once it gained air superiority, IMO
@juba gamer Hi! The attack in the Sahara would not have the intent of permanently keeping any territory, but would rather be a way to force the Moroccan army to fight a two front war across a great distance, forcing them to split resources from the attack in the north. With air and naval superiority, plus some degree of local support, the Spanish forces would give Moroccan land forces quite a hard time... Also, while the fighting in the cities would be very hard for an invading force, surely that would also be the case in Ceuta and Melilla, right? Iraq is not a good comparison, as the mission for Spanish soldiers there was literally "don't die" 😅 Hopefully Morocco and Spain will never fight, and remain good and friendly neighbors 😊
@@oussamamarroqino2579 That is very true, but if you watched the video, there is not really a way Moroccan forces could effectively threaten an invasion of the Canary Islands...

As Spanish I totally agree with the video. Keep a static defense in Ceuta and Melilla (as the scenario of the video implies) would be totally suicidal. But indeed I wouldn't be surprised that the Spanish government would not want to be the agressor in the eyes of the international community, so it might be too late and this scenario would be happening point by point.

Please, note: - Spain is a full member of NATO. Spain has territories out of the mainland (Same than USA (Hawaii, Guam, Puerto Rico, etc.)) Should the territory of a NATO member would be invaded, Spain is not only 1 army. - Spain, at the moment, has no foreign enemies. Morocco has an enemy, which is Algeria. They do not have, even diplomatic relations. - For the USA and its geopolitical interest, Spain is the entrace door of Europe and, the one and only entrance to the Mediterranean sea. - Spain, like it or not, is a country mostly white, Christian, homeland of one of the main Jew race (Sefardí) and, Spain is mostly Anticomunist. USA has excellent relations historicaly with Morocco but ... The free world will not leave the Mediterranean sea in the hands of a muslim country (Nowdays).
You have no idea what you're saying. The right hand of the Moroccan king is a powerful Jewish man (azzulai). Morocco will always be supported by Israel and therefore also by America. The Moroccan Jews are very powerful in Israel several ministers are Moroccan Jews. The Moroccan community in Israel is huge. In addition, so many Moroccans live in Europe, including the richer northern European countries such as the Netherlands and Belgium. They will always support Morocco financially.

In previous conflicts it was clearly visible, how destructive an air superiority can be and considering the edge in size and quality of the spanish airforce, they will destroy a large part of the maroccon army in retaliation for the lost territory. So in the end, in my opinion it is more a draw or a slight victory for spain.

Good job Binkov. Though I have to say that if when Perejil happened is any indication there would be a morale berserk frenzy in Spain. The question is if the air superiority would transform into a "security bubble" near Ceuta that allows the continous deployment of ground forces including MBT's and such. If it's possible, Morocco is in trouble. ¿Why? If there are enough forces there, Morocco would need to mass troops and equipment to deal with it, which means the air force is gonna smash a great, great deal of enemy MBT's, IFV and APC's, at which point the spanish forces having more or less all the equipment they brought , would be facing a disorganized army (which will contain a shiton of conscripts to make things worse). Also for extended Melilla resistance I have no doubt that the spanish marine infantry would be deployed there FAST, even when the moroccan air force is still ok, basically because parking a pair of F100 frigates near means very bad news for the moroccan airforce.

In reality, yes. Assuming Morocco starts it for whatever crazy reason they'd see NATO forces reacting, and almost certainly be defeated heavily rather than winning at great cost as in the 1v1. Change this scenario to add the US, UK, French, and Italian navies, and it's basically over on day one.

Binkov's videos are great, but he has a tendency to severely underestimate the impact of airbase attacks in the Air Superiority/Offensive Counter Air war. It's not all about how many fighters/bombers are in service and how good they are, it's also (and I would say, based on experience, mostly) about preventing the enemy from flying at all in the first place. Attacks on Command and Control Centers are also critical. Finally, he also has a tendency to vastly overestimate the lengths of the conflicts he analyzes. In modern conventional warfare (i.e. not counting counter-insurgency/counter-terrorist campaigns, which can indeed be very protracted), the losses would come so quickly that conflict resolution would have to be fairly prompt, one way or another. We are talking weeks (if not days in some cases), not months or years as Binkov often states. Still, good stuff, love the videos.
Most modern aircraft can operate from little more than A roads and in most cases platforms wouldn’t even use known airfields NATO planned on using motorways to launch aircraft from it was thought that at the outset of war most airfields would be hit by ballistic missiles
@@MrTangolizard Modern aircrafts can use highways to take off, land, refuel and rearm to some extent. Regular maintenance would be very hard and repairs out of question. It would be a very difficult logistical problem to get the fuel, rockets or even the food to the right place in the right time. Under these circumstances pilots and maintenance crews would have high fatigue influencing combat readiness. On these temporary "airfields" with all the dust, debris and less than ideal "runways" the planes would wear faster. If we add the operational problems it would render more and more aircrafts useless. Well, at least they could be cannibalised to keep the rest flying.
With an economy that much bigger and the ability to produce equipment locally there is no way Spain would lose a protracted war. The only question is how much life are they willing to sacrifice.. if the answer is 'as much as necessary' Morocco would be utterly doomed.

the video wasn't titled can Morrocco take Cueta and Mellia, if that were the case, then yes, but the video was titled can the Moroccan military stand up to Spain, and the answer is no, their navy and airforce would be obliterated with ease, and with a much larger economy, much larger population, constant air attacks, and naval harassment, all Spain would have to do to win would be to let it turn into a war of attrition and Morrocco would be sure to lose that as they would be crushed in a long war, but assuming that the war only takes a couple of months, then yes, Morrocco could stand up to Spain, but if we are being realistic here, Spain would not accept a peace treaty so early knowing that in the long run Spain would easily win.

It is true that Spain operates old submarines of the galerna class, but in April 2021 a modern submarine of the S-80 class was launched and it's in the process of passing the tests of the navy

This submarine has modern weapons and navigation systems, as well as the ability to launch BGM-109 Tomahawk missiles from them.

You forgot to mention the Spanish defence industry, far ahead of Moroccan's that's nearly non-existence. Apart from that, there is a naval base in the Canary Islands and an airbase. Spain could strike from the north and the east simultaneously so Moroccan army would be forced to split in half to defence their mainland and Ceuta and Melilla could resist.
Also, Spain could bomb Tanger, Casablanca or Rabat with thermobaric bombs if Morocco dares to invade Ceuta and Melilla once the airspace is on the Spanish side.

There are a few things with this video.
First of all, training level. Spain has a profesional standing army in which every soldier has at least 3 years of training. Morocco has an army reliant on conscription (which means that 2 years is the most training the average soldier has). Specially in Ceuta and Melilla: the Spanish forces there are elite units that have historically been able to overcome numerically superior foes.
Second, the naval disparity (which is shown) is so big that the Spanish fleet would be able to blockade Morocco without fear of retaliation, or if anything destroy the Moroccan fleet (not to mention that all the Spanish frigates have AEGIS systems) which would in turn allow Spain to send reinforcements or even launch landings in Moroccan shores. Melilla is within range of a military base of the Spanish Army of the Air (our Airforce) in Armilla, Granada, from which airplanes and helicopters can fly sending reinforcements or launching strike missions against the Moroccan forces.
Third, the abilities of the Typhoon and the F-18 (modernised) against ground targets. It's true that the Moroccan artillery is self-propelled and can be easily moved, but it's also true that both fighters can track those moves with radar, and can both move faster and launch guided missiles that can track the artillery (in order to destroy it).
And, fourth and last, most of the Moroccan equipment is imported from other countries, while most of the Spanish equipment is produced locally as the Spanish policy when it comes to acquiring military equipment is to buy production licenses and then produce locally, or even co-develop together with other countries. Thus, Spain would be able to replenish any losses in equipment, while Morocco would have it more difficult, specially if Spain declares a blockade of the Moroccan coast.
first b.s, morocco does not have an army reliant on conscription, we have a standing proffesional army, conscription was brought back in limited numbers only in 2019 and was cancelled next year, morocco has a big enough land army that it can take ceuta and melilla and fortify them, spain would be limited to air raids and morocco has decent air defences and artillery, spain loses, deal with it

Binkov forgot to mention that Spain develops and builds its own submarines the S-80 plus class. This submarines are of the best quality for conventional submarines and in the next couple of years four of them will join the navy. Spain, France and Germany are working on a 6th generation fighter jet and the Spanish army enjoys much superior training and equipment than the Moroccan army. Urban warfare would also equilibrate the difference in forces in Ceuta in Melilla. It is important to remember that many Moroccan citizens live in those cities and that Spain enjoys naval and air superiority. Spain also counts with very professional special forces such as the legion and also counts with many desert warfare trained soldiers. It is very likely that any attack on Ceuta and Melilla would be countered by attacks on Casablanca, Tangiers etc which are coastal cities. I therefore do not agree with Binkov that Morocco would win, how can they when they are outmatched in air and sea and their army would be locked against strong fortified cities that are continuously resupplied and count with many Moroccan citizens as a deterrent
Calling that sub anything above than "ok" would be a lie. You have some decent ideas, nice to read.
@Ayoub Marroquino Yes, they won all the battles and lost all their lands

What should happens with POLISARIO & Argelia...?
This is an interesting thought experiment, but even without the help of other countries, Spain would have quite some possibilities. These are some I have thought up in a couple of minutes. I'm sure there are more and better ways.
1.- If Spain has the air and the sea dominated (as the video proposes), why would Spain end the war? Bombing a couple of ports and airports, and blocking the maritime transport, Morocco has no possibility to import or export anything. Most of Morocco's exports go through Spain anyway. To the east the border with Algeria is closed. To the north and west is Spain. To the south the Sahara and the Polisario.
2.- Bomb the water supply for agriculture. Wait a couple of months, let hunger make its thing, and wait until the Moroccan people topple their own government.
3.- Another possibility. There are about 1 million Moroccans in Spain. Take them, send them to Ceuta and Melilla and expel them through the borders, and let Morocco deal with them. Just like Morocco did a couple of month ago, but in style. Let's see how the country manages with 1 mio. refugees.
4.- Spain could also build in a short time a thermobaric bomb. The blueprints exist already and the bomb was tested. A couple of those would be enough. Morocco would never be able to do the equivalent to Spain, as it has not the capability to strike in depth. They would never reach Madrid, not to talk about Santander or Bilbao. Spain could bomb Rabat or Tangier to ashes.
5.- Block the strait of Gibraltar and send international trade into a spin (remember the Ever Given?). Let's see what happens.
The thing is, everything would depend on how far the Spanish government would be willing to go.
You will be invaded by land with 400,000 fighters
Theromabric bombs are, in fact, in inventory for the spanish air force, plus this video focuses on the defense of ceuta and melilla, when in reality spain would conduct landings on other areas to drive away focus from those two cities and then take the surrounding areas of the cities and fortify on better positions than just the two enclaves.
TLD i agree with you
@@morosultanate692 Moroccan forces would never be able to reach the peninsula. Really low transport capbilities and surpassed in both air and maritime forces.
What it is really is a joke, to begin with, it is the title, it cannot be Spain VS Morocco, if not Morocco VS troops from Ceuta and Melilla. It seems that the troops on the peninsula would continue to play cards and the transport and landing ships would be cleaning up. There are so many errors that they are not worth commenting on. Which morocco has the most troops? We are lost! Nobody in the country would think of making a call to enlist more men. And so everything. He trusts everything to the fact that he has many more infantrymen, but to have them available he has to empty the Sahara, with the Polisario and Algeria there. This man has no idea of logistics and quartermaster and the strategy of war even less.
Lo que es realmente es una broma, para empezar, es el título, no puede ser España VS Marruecos, si no Marruecos VS tropas de Ceuta y Melilla. Parece que las tropas en la península seguirían jugando a las cartas y los barcos de transporte y desembarco estarían de limpieza. Hay tantos errores que no merece la pena comentarlos. ¿Qué marruecos tiene más tropas? ¡Estamos perdidos! A nadie en el país se le ocurriría hacer un llamamiento a alistar más hombres. Y así todo. Lo fía todo a que tiene muchos mas hombres de infantería, pero para tenerlos disponibles tiene que vaciar el Sahara, con el Polisario y Argelia por ahí. Este hombre no tiene ni idea de logística e intendencia y de la estrategia de la guerra aún menos.

I'm pretty sure they wouldn't come to your aid - from my (limited) experience.
In my opinion I highly doubt moroccos victory. Spain has really experienced soldiers and even has the oldest units in the world . Also spain has increased military spending which would increase to around 30 billion in defense spending and would allow the purchase of the f35 B that the navy has been waiting for and maybe building another amphibious aircraft carrier . During this years spain has also been making huge improvements due to their projects such as the f110 that would become the best frigates active at that time or the s80s ( would have 6 units in total including the s70s) or FCAS . A huge factor that would change everything would be the fact that spain is part of nato and that the most likely thing is that they would get supplies from all nations of nato. Another factor that could also influence in this unlikley war is the volunteering of spanish citizens to try and defend their homes from morocco . At the end of the day this war it is very difficult to know who would win and who would lose since as I mentioned there are many factors that influence .

I doubt Spain would stop the war effort right after losing Ceuta and Melilla. Why stop when Morocco doesn't have an opposing force? That's exactly when Spain can retake the cities and force Morocco into submission, making use of their superior remaining Air Force and Navy. Also, you didn't take into consideration that the F100 are extremely capable AEGIS AAW destroyers that would negate large areas of airspace and make life very difficult for the Moroccan air force, even from the safety of Spanish ports.

@Timur Sayfullah California and Holland?
Mh... I think there are some points that the video didn't account for that would make the outcome of the war being different.
1. Differences in the fighters. When you use jet fighters, it's extremely important to know how behave each fighter and their weaponry. Eurofighters are planes designed to be extremely maneuverable as well as fast (can reach Mach2+ with afterburners and Mach1.2 without them). They are equiped with MBDA Meteor AAM, which is an AAM able to reach Mach4 speed and with a range of 150km, being the one with the longest range, and deadly if fired from 40 to 60km. Now, there's the fact that the eurofighter has been praised for almost any pilot that used it and that have won several practice combats.
Why am I saying this? In the video, it's said that the ratio of planes shot down would be 1:1, while that is only possible when the two fighters are identical. In a real combat situation, having a better weapon, electronics and a plane designed for a specific role matters a lot. The Typhoon has shown that it can outfight and win several enemy planes with little to no casualties on its side even when outnumbered (Typhoon Meet, Seville, 2008, where 8 Typhoons fought 27 enemies and won without casualties; and DACT, Canary Islands, 2009 where 2 Typhoons fought 8 F-15 Eagle, scoring 3 and 4 kills on the F-15). So, in a scenario where the Moroccan's F-16 are not upgraded to the V version (and that is mostly cos I don't know the specs of this version), they will not stand a chance against a Typhoon scuadron.
What would happen in this case? Spain could lose some planes, but by no means would be a 1:1 or 1:3 ratio for sure. 1st because the superiority of the Typhoon and 2nd cos for each F-16 that Morocco has, Spain has 3 Typhoons. If the Typhoons can already outmatch the F-16s when the are outnumbered, they should stomp them when they are the ones who outnumbers.
2. Behavior of the artillery. Since Spain would have control of the seas, they can use their artillery in order to support both, Ceuta and Melilla, from the seas. In the first states of the war, the focus of Spain would be to secure a seaway that would allow to evacuate the civilians to the mainland. Achieved that, the main focus of the navy should be to provide artillery fire in order to both maim Moroccan's infantry/tanks and AA defenses. Maybe Melilla would be harder to defend, but in Ceuta, given its geography, the Termopilae strat can be used in order to hold the line.
3. Several places for landing. Securing sea and air superiority and being able to maim Moroccan's AA defenses, army and tanks from afar, there's a lot of places which can be used to land. Maybe Morocco diivided it's army between those who invade Ceuta, those Who invade Melilla and those who try to invade Canary Islands. If they have an army of 170k soldiers, divided by 3 that means that they will have almot 60k soldiers for each front. Suposing that no contry will recruit more soldiers from the populace, Spain, even using all it's army, would be able to just to fight in equal numbers in one front. That means that Spain must be wiser and use its advantage. If the Moroccan army is spreaded in order to defend all the coasts, then a bomb from air or artillery fire from the ships can make a hole and, if the army is put together, then they will sustain several damage from the same air or sea attaks ehy Spanish troops land away from them and join the fight from the rearguard.
4. Use of special forces. Spain has the G.O.E., a group of elite soldiers that can infiltrate in enemy territory and perform several missions like destroying AA defenses or cut supply lines. Both actions would mean that either the aircraft can enter in Morocco air space and perform bombings in key places, like the capital, and that the soldiers in the vanguard will not get reinforces or supplies.
5. War Goals. In case the war starts, Morocco and Spain will have different goals. While Morocco could set for invading Ceuta and Melilla (and even the Canaries), Spain would want to defend them AND assert control over Morocco. Why? Cos being able to control the strench is one of the most valuable strategic points Spain could have. That's why Spain would focus in a longer war even if that means to lose control over Ceuta and Melilla. They would like to lose a battle in order to win war.

Interesting to imagine, but it will never happen as the US, Britain and the rest of Western Europe would force both Spain and Morocco to not start anything, and would quickly meddle in and extinguish any potential escalation between them as there are strategic and economic interests on the line in that zone, and another conflict zone with a humanitarian crisis and rise of new terror groups so close to Europe would be catastrophic and the last thing the world needs with all the chaos going on.

What does it mean tho?
You’re very knowledgeable Binkov, I just question why you never make allowances for special forces? In this particular scenario. Attacks on isolated costal infrastructure. The vulnerability of Morocco as 90% of their population is on the coast. 5 of their 7 airbases are in the north. The Moroccans would be out of the air war in days.
Air artillery/ naval support as well as reenforcement of ground troops makes taking the the Spanish territory a tall order. Large concentration of Moroccan troops would be smashed. Ships on harbour or planes on airfields would be destroyed before the had a chance to fire a shot. My big question is who has the most munitions. It’s up to Spain to pull the sharp teeth out of Morocco. Only quest is how long that would take. An occupation of Spanish territory could result in reprisal attacks on any of Morocco’s cities.
Without allies means no diplomatic pressure. I think this would wake up a Spanish sleeping giant. Resulting in a total war against Morocco.
Actively targeting troop barracks before they are deployed would be political suicide. Defending the two exclaves is not going to get much public support when people worldwide discover they are actually in Africa. I disagree with Binkov, they can be defended by Spain alone but at the cost of 30,40,000 dead Moroccans. Also, Binkovs own rules - no 3rd party. This is unlikely as nato is contractually bound to help. Thus you will see French and Italian planes laying waste to Moroccan front forces, at which point Casablanca decides it's not worth risking massive losses going up against air supremacy.
@@jaybee2402 yeah good points all 👍🏻 I’m just arguing within the context of Binkovs scenario however unlikely. If it’s Spain on Morocco 1v1 you need to pretend the rest of the world is busy doing something else that they would ignore what’s happening. 👍🏻
@@TrueWeej Yeah I don't know why he did such a video without starting it with, "nato would be involved and any war would be over in 48 hours". It's intriguing to speculate on unlikely wars breaking out, but Spain is a nato member, ANY military attack on her by a non-member has a fixed outcome. The French have decades of experience fighting in North Africa. That's the fundamental reason Spain allowed 160,000 of her citizens to settle in those two exclaves, she wouldn't have allowed it if she wasn't confident any attack from Africa would be crushed in hours.
Morocco's weakness is the western sahara region. Its directly across the canaries, we'd send commandos and air support to stur up insurgency in the area promissing to support independence. I'd divide Morocco's land forces in two making it harder to resist a land invasion from the north.

The problem, Spain doesn’t want to talk. A lot of history behind, and old demons surface now and then. But I think if wisdom prevails, Spain should sit down and discuss. As Moroccans, we will never ever forget these enclaves, and we can’t get them now, we will eventually do.
Wouldn't Spain attack the Moroccan possessions in the Sahara from the Canary islands? It could gain a lot of valuable territory with relatively few troops once it gained air superiority, IMO
@juba gamer Hi! The attack in the Sahara would not have the intent of permanently keeping any territory, but would rather be a way to force the Moroccan army to fight a two front war across a great distance, forcing them to split resources from the attack in the north. With air and naval superiority, plus some degree of local support, the Spanish forces would give Moroccan land forces quite a hard time... Also, while the fighting in the cities would be very hard for an invading force, surely that would also be the case in Ceuta and Melilla, right? Iraq is not a good comparison, as the mission for Spanish soldiers there was literally "don't die" 😅
Hopefully Morocco and Spain will never fight, and remain good and friendly neighbors 😊

Good job Binkov. Though I have to say that if when Perejil happened is any indication there would be a morale berserk frenzy in Spain. The question is if the air superiority would transform into a "security bubble" near Ceuta that allows the continous deployment of ground forces including MBT's and such. If it's possible, Morocco is in trouble. ¿Why? If there are enough forces there, Morocco would need to mass troops and equipment to deal with it, which means the air force is gonna smash a great, great deal of enemy MBT's, IFV and APC's, at which point the spanish forces having more or less all the equipment they brought , would be facing a disorganized army (which will contain a shiton of conscripts to make things worse). Also for extended Melilla resistance I have no doubt that the spanish marine infantry would be deployed there FAST, even when the moroccan air force is still ok, basically because parking a pair of F100 frigates near means very bad news for the moroccan airforce.

@@umaydniassuh6511 The problem of Spain is its weak politicians, NOT ITS PEOPLE OR ITS ARMY ... Make no mistake, neither underestimate Spain nor self-overestimate because it would be your downfall ...
One thing is the decisions of politicians, and quite another is to be on the battlefield, and I could be telling you a thousand battles between Spaniards and Arabs for many centuries, where the Spanish in combat have not exactly fled, but everything. otherwise ...
I doubt they can held when over 700 155mm artillery shells bombard them

I think a Spanish-Moroccan War would likely cause some kind of International action, over fears of the Gibraltar strait being closed.
In reality, yes. Assuming Morocco starts it for whatever crazy reason they'd see NATO forces reacting, and almost certainly be defeated heavily rather than winning at great cost as in the 1v1. Change this scenario to add the US, UK, French, and Italian navies, and it's basically over on day one.
Plus, it would be a mess for the Suez shipping too - after all, they'll just get stuck in the med unable to pass if there's a war at the main exit, and the long way around... ALSO passes by the war! So yeah, you're likely to also see things like Chinese and Indian involvement one way or another to keep the exports flowing because you'll start overwhelming ports and road routes with most alternatives. Morocco would be nuts to do anything IRL.
No country would actively support morocco when starting an aggression on spanish soil
@@luisluis6311 I don't think the international action would necessarily support ether side, as the prime concern would be keeping the Gibraltar strait open and safe. Perhaps an international military buffer force between the two sides.
@@VeraTR909 Which party, that could, you know, do shit, would help Morroco?
@@biodidu25 france is in nato they would obviously help spain.
You forgot some important informations...morocco will receive 25 new f16 viper this year and 24 Apache guardian and some mq-9 reaper ...you forgot another important thing.. we bought some Harpoons to say hello to the Spanish navy and loke you've mentioned we signed a contract with ylthe usa to bought the Patriot that will change a lot of things
Whatever the outcome, no one would win in this war. Peace everyone ✌️. Best wishes to our Morrocans neighbors.

I wouldnt like this war to happen , I love Spain .
You too our Spanish brothers
Only yesterday Morocco decided to deploy squadrons of Drons in the occupied areas of Melilla and Ceuta
Stop reading false propaganda from Spanish media
And even if Morocco moved all of it army to the North you can't do anything about it
@Red Fox go beg for some milk
When you're standing in Tarifa in Spain on a clear day, you can actually see across to Morocco, it's that close. Only 14kms.
same thing from tangiers
@@oussamat612 yes, I've been in Tangiers. Ferry goes straight across.
You should do a video on Algeria vs Morocco as a war between those 2 would be a lot more likely as Algeria has much worse relations with Morocco than Spain does. In fact I know you said you are assuming no other countries get involved but it's still worth pointing out that Algeria would almost definitely enter the war on the side of Spain in this scenario.
He made a video on it, but sadly it's REALLY outdated, a good video for the time but Morocco's military has became a lot stronger.
Argelia tiene miedo de Marruecos. Por eso está ladrando, para que no les pede el sahara oriental.
Algeria have no relationship with morocco neither spain. why you cant say Algeria vs Moroccan western sahara instead.
@Cesar 2020 both militaries have increased significantly over the years
i would say Algeria in the 20’s and Morocco in the 30’s
global fire power rankings dont take into account arms deals with other nations and only focus on domestic military assets, since theyre the easiest to report
Morocco signed a 10b military contract with USA back in 2020, is buying a bunch of corvettes from spain, has bought TB2 bayraktar drones which are consdiered the best in the world, and they are slowly buying the famous Iron Dome from israel, considered the most sophisticated aerial defense system in the world
Algeria has also bought some drones, is increasing its aerial power
Spain literally once conquered almost half of the world. This is just unrealistic.
Lmao that was back in the 1500’s. I mean Macedonia conquered half of the known world too that doesn’t mean they’re still a powerful nation same with Mongolia.
You have no idea what you’re talking about
@@ab6978 maybe you're the want who doesn't know what he's talking about...

Hi ! Which software do you use to draw and animate these beautiful maps ?
Meanwhile the British in Gibraltar:
Blimey, I didn’t expect a show this afternoon. James! Bring the refreshments!
Did you just forgot the HQ 9B SAM batteries (300km range)
The British would be just sitting there watching the fireworks.
Gibraltar would collapse as it was unable to purchase smuggled tobacco or hashish from Morocco to sell to Spain. Finally, Gibraltar would be Spanish again, we would recover the Spanish Sahara and the entire Rift. If Morocco attacked Spain (which is very very unlikely, but with third world countries and also where Islam predominates, it is probable) would be the best thing that would happen to us, the push to the arms industry that would be given to Spain would be incredible.
@@moroccanwarriors1609 XD yes yes. Spain will not attack Morocco, it can only be given the option that Morocco is the one to initiate hostilities. And UK, which is a great economic and military partner of Spain, will help you a little bit...
@@moroccanwarriors1609 Still we are decades ahead. However, maybe Spain needs a country like Morocco to attack it to wake up and turn on its industrial war machinery and patriotism, of which it already build and design ships, submarines, tanks ... and thanks to Morocco attack, at least 8 submarines and many more are built, more destroyers for having given us the slap we needed, yes, you will only be able to enlarge your desert with less territory XD, and Ceuta and Melilla will continue to be Spanish.
Hey Morocco if you want to invade Spain then please leave all the tourist resorts alone so us Brits won't have to join in
We Dutch agree with the Brits
Quit evading tax.
Morocco will not invade Spain -a moroccan
at this moment, Spain has two more submarines completly new and moder (total of 4) and will come others very soon
Morocco has also many new weapons, submarins and some new planes took from US and USA. Dont forget that USA considere Morocco as his first allie in the mediterranian side even if Spain is in the NATO. Another important thing, Israel, France, UK, Canada are from the Moroccan side. In case of conflict with Spain( We dont want it) Morocco can collaborates easily with UK which controlls Gibraltar and Spain will loose... The good relationship between Morocco and Spain is very important cause for USA these two countries are strategical for the développement and the stability for the USA...
Morocco Last 10 years has grown à Lot and the military and diplomatic power of Moroccan it s very important. I am living in Canadá and in Canadá and USA politics and the military forces are more close than Morocco than Spain. Even the people feel Morocco more close. Spain had no choice, she has to be alligned with Morocco...
God bless you from Canadá
First day of war: Spain bombs with termobaric bombs over Mohamed VI palace and Rabat capital. Day two: The war is over.

@@us.nyc.10011 Those cowards only run from the polisario
Binkov's videos are great, but he has a tendency to severely underestimate the impact of airbase attacks in the Air Superiority/Offensive Counter Air war. It's not all about how many fighters/bombers are in service and how good they are, it's also (and I would say, based on experience, mostly) about preventing the enemy from flying at all in the first place. Attacks on Command and Control Centers are also critical. Finally, he also has a tendency to vastly overestimate the lengths of the conflicts he analyzes. In modern conventional warfare (i.e. not counting counter-insurgency/counter-terrorist campaigns, which can indeed be very protracted), the losses would come so quickly that conflict resolution would have to be fairly prompt, one way or another. We are talking weeks (if not days in some cases), not months or years as Binkov often states. Still, good stuff, love the videos.
Most modern aircraft can operate from little more than A roads and in most cases platforms wouldn’t even use known airfields NATO planned on using motorways to launch aircraft from it was thought that at the outset of war most airfields would be hit by ballistic missiles
@@MrTangolizard LOL, Okayyy... Whatever, dude...
@@KRGruner yeah I mean what does nato know right ? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Highway_strip
@@MrTangolizard Modern aircrafts can use highways to take off, land, refuel and rearm to some extent. Regular maintenance would be very hard and repairs out of question. It would be a very difficult logistical problem to get the fuel, rockets or even the food to the right place in the right time. Under these circumstances pilots and maintenance crews would have high fatigue influencing combat readiness. On these temporary "airfields" with all the dust, debris and less than ideal "runways" the planes would wear faster. If we add the operational problems it would render more and more aircrafts useless. Well, at least they could be cannibalised to keep the rest flying.
@@MrTangolizard LOL again. Have you ever worked as a war planner for NATO? Well, have you, punk? That's what I thought. Wikipedia ninja, indeed...
With an economy that much bigger and the ability to produce equipment locally there is no way Spain would lose a protracted war. The only question is how much life are they willing to sacrifice.. if the answer is 'as much as necessary' Morocco would be utterly doomed.
Spain doesn't have that spirit they had with the empire, nobody wants to fight
@@TasukuMuncha if Morocco starts the war against spain, I doubt the Spaniards wouldn't be able to put aside their differences and fight against it.
The Americans were also very anti war until 9/11 happened and everyone rallied for the country.
Spain is not capable of going on an offensive war, yes, but if it's defensive, I'm pretty sure they will be able to do it.
explain to me how spain will invade morocco and liberate ceuta when they have so limited amphibous capability and few transport aircraft. its not enough to face a 200.000 moroccan soldiers when you can only unload 1000 troops per day, and that is not even counting under heavy moroccan artillery fire
Your war concept is really oldy. Thanks a lot for so many figures and please forget about me

The map isn't complet and Morocco never shows his arms
Ceuta and Melilla are not "spanish possesions". They are Spanish territory many centuries ago (approx 500 years), far before Morocco exists as a country. You didn´t talk about the thermobaric weapons (BEAC) or the new S81 class submarines from Spain.
Where did you learn your history! Morocco exist for more than 1200 years!
Morocco is much older than spain , the first Moroccan state was established in 788 AD.
no wonder Spanish education is one of the worse in Europe .where did you get your poor knowledge from ? morocco is over 1200yeara old ....far older than Spain.
thermobaric weapons ? LMAO. Pakistan has signed a deal with Saudi Arabia, Egypt, and Morocco that if there were ever a war, they could purchase 6 Shaheen-II Nuclear warheads to use in combat. If spain ever thinks of using weapons of mass destruction or chemical weapons like they did in rif wars, morocco would nuke spain to hell
@@jamesmcgaiver4872 W
the video wasn't titled can Morrocco take Cueta and Mellia, if that were the case, then yes, but the video was titled can the Moroccan military stand up to Spain, and the answer is no, their navy and airforce would be obliterated with ease, and with a much larger economy, much larger population, constant air attacks, and naval harassment, all Spain would have to do to win would be to let it turn into a war of attrition and Morrocco would be sure to lose that as they would be crushed in a long war, but assuming that the war only takes a couple of months, then yes, Morrocco could stand up to Spain, but if we are being realistic here, Spain would not accept a peace treaty so early knowing that in the long run Spain would easily win.
Bruh Do you know that morocco Have More Advanced Airforce Than spain??
F16, Apaches, Drones...etc.
Btw all Spanish Army Was Humiliated by Bunch of farmers in Northen Morocco Riff lol
@@mohamedred5746 a couple of things, Spain never lost its territories in Africa to Morroccoan farmers, Spain was forced to give up most of its African lands because of international pressure placed on Spain in 1975 after Franco died. And further more, let me just state the obvious, Spain is a much stronger nation than Morrocco is is. Higher population, way higher economy, more military spending, better training, much more powerful navy, a way more numerous airforce, and ect. Not saying Morrocco doesn't have good planes, but Spain's planes are also quite modern and much more numerous, plus Spanish pilots on average recieve more and better training than their Morroccoan counterparts
@@mohamedred5746 oh yeah, and I forgot to mention, who ultimately won the rof war again?
@@Daniel-ms9ks
By Moroccan farmers i mean the Riffians who Humiliated the Spanish army in Anual 3.000 vs 30.000 (with better equipment) and still lose lol...
You needed France and chemical Weapons to do Something bruh.
So how the hell do you think spain Gona Won?
And you are talking about QUANTITY NOT QUALITY it doesnt Matter if you have more Numbers cuz still the difference is the technology btw The moroccan And Spanish population there is no much diference, The Spanish economy is Nothing without the UE unlike Morocco economic grow rate is Hight unlike spain...
The Moroccan Army train with the most powerfull countries in The world liike USA, France, Britain, Israel...etc
Have you heard about African Lion or Africom?
@@mohamedred5746 Spain has much closer relations militarily, politically, and economically with the US and Nato than Morrocoo does. Spain trains with the US a lot more without question. and yea, Morrocco has f-16's but Spain has Eurofighter Typhoons which are 20 years younger, faster, more maneuverable cuz of its delta wing design, and has a lot more of them. Not to mention the F-18's Spain has which are also superior to the Moroccan F-16's. Spain has more and superior fighters. And yes, the Spanish did lose at the Battle of Annual, but Spain won the war in the end. Every major nation has had its embarrassing defeat at one point or another. and FYI you got your numbers wrong, it was 20,000, not 30,000 that were lost in that battle. and Funny enough, the Berbers lost more men in total than the Spanish did in that war, so not only did Spain win that war, but the Berbers lost more men in total than the Spaniards did. and on top of all that, every war that has taken place between Morrocco and Spain ended up in Spanish Victory
You should start including cyber tech/warfare in these vids.
Too realistic. Real war is messy and variable, you can't easily model these things.

Please binkov .. Egypt vs turkey or Egypt vs Ethiopia
Yes this is Interesting
Egypt would more likely then not win against Ethiopia and a war between turkey and Egypt would be very impractical.
