Operation Unified Protector, the fight against the Libyan regime of Kadhafi, yield at Souda (Crete) a nice mix of French Mirage 2000s, including 2000-5Fs, 2000D and 2000NK2 as well as Qatarese 2000EDA/DDAs. Here serial 63, a 2000-5F of "Cigogne de Guynemer" (Guynemer Stork) is taking off from Souda. Soon the pilot is manoeuvring nar and over Libya to give top cover for other NATO assets.
