French Naval Aviation
Over the past 20 years, the Aéronautique Navale, the French Naval Aviation, has developed into a highly capable force. It operates a diverse fleet, including Rafale Marine strike fighters, E-2C Hawkeye early-warning aircraft, and Falcon 50, Gardian, and Atlantique 2 maritime patrol aircraft. Its helicopter units include the Dauphin, Panther, Alouette, and Caïman, while training and transport missions are carried out by the CAP 10, Xingu, and Falcon 10.
Supported by skilled engineers, air traffic controllers, intelligence specialists, and fire crews, its well-trained personnel conduct missions over land and sea, both in France and abroad.
Illustrated with over 200 color images, this book provides an in-depth look at the daily operations of modern Aéronautique Navale squadrons, offering a detailed insight into their missions and routines.
