The Dassault-Breguet Super Etendard (Etendard is French for battle flag) is a strike fighter plane made by Dassault-Breguet specifically for the French Navy's needs. The aircraft takes its advanced technology from the Etendard IVM, and it has all new designs. On October 1974, the Super Etendard took flight, and in June 1978, the aircraft was officially ready for use with the French Navy. French military personnel flew Super Etendards into several important battles like the war over Kosovo, fighting in Afghanistan, and an operation to help stabilize Libya. The Super Etendard plane also served with Iraq and Argentina, countries that sent this plane to war zones. During a war between Iraq and Iran, the Iraqi Air Force used the Super Etendard planes to bomb oil tankers and ships carrying goods in the Persian Gulf. Many people learned about the Super Etendard after Argentina's air force flew it in the Malvinas War of 1982 using Exocet missiles as part of their plan of attack.
