The Hirsch or Hirsch-MAéRC H.100 is an experimental aircraft, built in France in the 1950s to test an aerodynamic gust suppression system. The system worked but was not further developed. The H.100 made its last flight on 16 June 1971, having flown for a total of 130 hours. In that year it was donated to the Musée de l'Air et de l'Espace at Le Bourget.
