Next to the classic Dassault Mirage 2000 France is now equipped with most modern material: The Rafale ! 
The Rafale comes out of the own French Dassault 'kitchen' . In French d'assault in fact means to attack.
Proud enough to pose in front of this fine plane: Our press-ladies who accompanied us on the special places.
