Amazing history. Thanks for the point out.

I hope these type of clandestine operations are happening today and we will learn of them in 30 years.

Very interesting. I need to ask a few colleagues/instructors who used to fly the F1 if they were anywhere close.
I wonder what we got in the deal as well...

2 little details:
-N'Djamena is pronounced "Enne-Djameenah". Lovely name which means: we took a rest.
-one second it says the French Air Force had a few F1 to deter the Libyan Air Force, the next that the Americans had to be careful cause they had little defence against said Libyan air force? :scratch: :shrug:

edit: and OBVIOUSLY it was NOT the fastest helo in the world, nor the Chinook. That honour is still held by the Lynx.

Did they (smoking man, DoD, Americans, or the French) declassify that operation?
