In relation to our lockdown situation, we MUST all play a role to overcome this pandemic. I came across this video randomly while browsing the internet in isolation. It motivates me the importance and reminds me the fun of teamwork. I would like to thank all those essential services teams for their dedication and sacrifices in keeping us safe at ALL times 😇
Being a combat aircraft enthusiast, this has been in my shadows for 20 years. It is only NOW I got to know this low profile combat aircraft even better. It has its hidden assets. Among them are:
1) US Navy Compatibility - The Rafale M is fully compatible with US Navy aircraft carriers and some French Navy pilots have qualified to fly the aircraft from US Navy flight decks.
2) Shared Engineering - The first jet fighter of a foreign navy to have its engine replaced on board an American aircraft carrier.
Constantly being in the shadow of mightier and more publicized navies, French Navy Aircraft Carrier inventory is worth a check out. They are, as the saying goes, "Still water runs deep".
Full afterburners catapult launch!
I like this Flottille 12F Unit 'Donald Duck' tail fin!
