OverviewUntil it is definitively replaced by the Rafale M around 2015, the Super Entendard remains in the front line of all combat missions carried out by the French naval air arm. From Lebanon up to Afghanistan, passing by Kosovo and Serbia, the naval plane has opened fire on its adversaries in often dramatic circumstances, but without losing a single plane in French colours. Since it entered service in 1978, the Super Ententard has also shown a capacity to adapt, which proves, once more, the genius and common sense of Dassault's design team. There is no needless sophistication, nor an excess of power in this plane, but a straightforward mutli-purpose capability that has made this plane the backbone of carrier-borne French aviation for more than three decades.
