The two countries "agreed to further strengthen cooperation and expand it to other areas, including in intelligence, air defence and electronic warfare," the Royal Moroccan Armed Forces said in a statement.
The announcement on Tuesday follows the first meeting of the monitoring committee for Moroccan-Israeli defence cooperation in the Moroccan capital.
The two-day meeting examined military cooperation including in the fields of "logistics, training and the acquisition and modernisation of equipment".
The two countries formalised ties in 2020, following similar agreements between Israel and the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain.
It followed the United States' recognition of Moroccan sovereignty over the disputed Western Sahara region, in a quid pro quo for re-establishing ties with Israel.
In November 2021, Israel's then defence minister Benny Gantz signed a memorandum of understanding in Rabat outlining security relations with Morocco.
