To rise to see better, to see to better understand... The reconnaissance mission was the first entrusted to the military aviation. With a pilot on board, sometimes accompanied by an observer, the first military aircraft put into service a few months before the First World War were the eyes of the commanders on the ground. A century later, the 2/33 Savoy reconnaissance squadron proudly carried on this tradition. With the Mirage F1 CR, the last of the French combat aircraft specifically equipped for the reconnaissance mission, the Savoie rightly claimed a unique know-how in France, forged at the increasingly sustained pace of foreign operations.

From Chad to Yugoslavia, from Afghanistan to Libya and Mali, there has been no shortage of operational commitments in recent years. This book tells the story of the last hours of an exceptional unit, whose dormancy is symptomatic of a changing air force, on its way to more versatility with a fleet composed solely of Mirage 2000s and Rafale. Served by the exclusive photographs of Alexandre Paringaux, this book offers a vivid testimony to the missions, crews and equipment of a unit that has now gone down in history.
