France Conducted Nuclear Strike Exercises
"Forty Rafale and Mirage 2000 fighter jets, AWAC radar aircraft, and A330 MRTT tankers were deployed overnight over a significant portion of French territory to conduct a simulated nuclear attack.
"This is a way to demonstrate to our adversary our ability to carry out the nuclear deterrent mission. We are following the instructions of the President of the Republic, the head of the Armed Forces, and the sole holder of the nuclear button," said General Etienne Gourdin, Deputy Chief of the French Armed Forces.
Using aviation for nuclear strikes is retarded. In a nuclear exchange airbases would be dusted by modern missiles. Only realistic deployment method is missiles. Using jets is like fighting tanks with knights on horseback.
