Kleine Brogel - Spottersday (Part 2)
 

::: The Operational Integration Exercise was the main attraction as numerous aircraft participated. Especially the French Navy and Air Force were heavily involved in this exercise. With naval Rafales and Super Etendards together with air defense Mirage 200C's, attack Mirage 2000D's and reconnaissance Mirage F-CR's, they were the larges contributors to the spottersday. This because they also had send two Tucano and two Alpha Jet trainers to entertain the crowds at Kleine Brogel.

::: Two old Greek A-7 Corsairs took also part in the Combined Air Operations (COMAO). For sure a rare sight as these aircraft are soon to be replaced by advanced 'Block 52' F-16C/D's. Add to this COMAO some German Tornados from different units, a number of both Danish and Belgian F-16's and you have got a impressive package of combat aircraft flying around! Unfortunately a French Navy E-2 Hawkeye and a C-135F tanker could not make it to Kleine Brogel on the spottersday.
