Does anyone know exactly which aircraft the French and Brits are using against Libya?

[TheMightyFavog]

Is the Charles De Gaulle sending out Rafale Ms and Super Étendards? Or is the land based Armee del L'aire using Mirage 2000 variants and land based Rafales?

As for the UK, Is the Eurofighter Typhoon making its combat debut, or is the RAF sticking with the Paniva Tornado?

2. My understanding is that UK is deploying both Typhoon and Tornado

Not sure about France, except for some form of Rafale and Mirage.

7. Yeah, I just read that....

I hope like hell either the Libyan airbases have been taken out of commission or the Libyan Air Force has decided to defect.

MiG 21s, MiG 23s, Su-22s and some old Yugoslavian trainers vs. Rafales and Typhoons = a lot of dead Libyan pilots

8. Damn. The De Gaulle's getting involved?

Even the Italians are sending the Garibaldi! Granted, its Harriers will only be useful for airstrikes, but yeah... If I were a Libyan Air Force pilot, I would be trying to find the nearest rebel unit to surrender myself to.
