[edit] Number of Aircraft Operated

The introduction has included 162 airplanes (130 of them combat-capable) further down in aircraft inventory it has operates 224 aircraft, including 60 combat jets and 89 helicopters. I presume that one of them is wrong ? MilborneOne 22:06, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

It may be that the Aviation navale is a subpart of the Aéronautique navale which is the full name for the entire aviation branch of the Marine nationale. Born as a fusion of carrier squadrons and naval patrol air force implies that naval training and liaison aircraft are not included in the subtotal of 162. We really need a page about the Aéronautique navale, perhaps by moving and correcting this one. PpPachy 12:13, 8 August 2007 (UTC)
