Photo The Bréguet Alizé in straight flight

About this photo

The Bréguet Alizé glides confidently, its wings slightly inclined as it follows a perfectly straight trajectory. This iconic aircraft of the Aéronavale displays its full presence: robust yet elegant, it recalls the decades when it provided anti-submarine warfare from French aircraft carriers.

The roar of its turboprop engine resonates powerfully as the light plays on its metal airframe, highlighting the Alizé's distinctive lines. Every detail, from the fuselage to the empennage, reflects a design conceived for the maritime mission: stability, endurance and precision. The public can admire both its technology and its historical heritage, two qualities that make the Alizé a true symbol of French carrier-based aviation.
