EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph captures the sleek and powerful Dassault Etendard IVP 114 naval fighter jet, as it rests on the tarmac at Base Aerienne 705 Tours in 1974. The Etendard IVP, operated by the French Navy (Aeronavale), is a variant of the Etendard family of aircraft, which first entered service in the late 1950s. The Etendard IVP was a significant advancement from its predecessors, featuring advanced avionics, improved engines, and an upgraded weapons system. Its distinctive delta wing design and bright orange and gray paint scheme make it a standout among other aircraft of the time. In this image, we see the Etendard IVP 114 undergoing maintenance or preparation for a flight mission. The ground crew can be seen in the foreground, working diligently on the aircraft. The jet's engines are exposed, revealing the intricate machinery that powers this impressive machine. The Base Aerienne 705 Tours was an important site for the French Navy's aviation operations, and the Etendard IVP was a key part of their fleet. This photograph provides a unique glimpse into the daily life of the French Navy's aviation personnel and their aircraft during the 1970s. The Etendard IVP served in the French Navy until the late 1990s, making way for more modern fighter jets. Today, it remains a symbol of France's rich aviation history and the technological advancements of the past century.
