Escadrille 103
Escadrille 103 of the French Air Force was an elite aviation unit during World War I; one of its aces, René Fonck, was the highest-scoring Allied fighter pilot. During WWI, French squadrons took their name from the aircraft they operated, so Escadrille 103 formed as VB 3 Bomber Squadron flying the Voisin III.
The heritage of the escadrille 103 continues on with escadrille SPA 103 of René Fonck, one of four squadrons of Escadron de Chasse 1/2 Cigognes (Fighter Squadron 1/2 Cigognes).
Dassault Mirage 2000
The Mirage 2000 is a French single (2000C) or tandem seat (2000B) single-engined fourth-generation multirole lightweight jet fighter. It first flew on March 10, 1978, designed to replace the Mirage III, and entered service in July 1984. Its combat debut occurred during the Gulf War with the French air force. Production ended in 2007 with 601 airframes built and sales to eight nations.
The Mirage 2000 uses a single SNECMA M53 axial-flow after-burning turbojet engine mounted in the rear of the fuselage. The armament consists of two internal cannons (single seat)—nine external hardpoints, able to carry 6,300 kg (13,900 lb) of stores.
