Hobby Master 1/72 - Mirage 2000C French Air Force Desert Storm France’s participation in Desert Storm was called “Operation Daguet (French for Brocket Deer). The French were responsible for the left flank as Coalition Forces worked their way into Kuwait to drive the Iraqi invaders out of the country. Along with Mirage 2000Cs France supplied transport aircraft refueling planes ground attack aircraft as well as Army and Navy personnel and other materiel. Even after Desert Storm ended France continued to participate in activities in the region. One of the many aircraft France supplied for Desert Storm in 1991 was the Mirage 2000C 5-OP/74 from EC (fighter wing) 2/5 “Ile de France”. The 5-O is the visual designator for the 2/5 “Ile de France” who only received their Mirage 2000Cs in 1989. The squadron was based at Al Ahsa in Saudi Arabia for Desert Storm and in September 1992 they moved to Dhahran in Saudi Arabia as part of operation “Alysse” in south-west Iraq. Later they joined “Southern Watch” to help enforce the no-fly zone in southern Iraq.
