The Étendard IVM was originally to have been replaced by a navalised version of the Jaguar, designated as the Jaguar M, but the project was dogged by a combination of political problems and issues experienced during trial deployments on board carriers. It suffered handling inadequcies when being flown on a single engine and a poor throttle response time that made landing back on a carrier after an engine failure difficult. In 1973, all development work on the Jaguar M was formally cancelled by the French government

This D.520 was built with c/n 650 by the Dewoitine factory in Toulouse during WWII and was flown by pilots of the French Vichy Government from Pau. Later it was used by the French Interior Forces for observation and espionage missions. From 1945 to 1950 it served as a (then) two-seat trainer for the Armée de l'Air. In 1950 the aircraft was withdrawn from use and ended up as gate guard at BA123 Orléans/Bricy. After time at La Ferté Alais it went on display at the Musée de l 'Air at LBG in 1970 but full restoration did not begin till it was trucked to Rochefort in 1990, completed in 2020

This D.520 was built with c/n 650 by the Dewoitine factory in Toulouse during WWII and was flown by pilots of the French Vichy Government from Pau. Later it was used by the French Interior Forces for observation and espionage missions. From 1945 to 1950 it served as a (then) two-seat trainer for the Armée de l'Air. In 1950 the aircraft was withdrawn from use and ended up as gate guard at BA123 Orléans/Bricy. After time at La Ferté Alais it went on display at the Musée de l 'Air at LBG in 1970 but full restoration did not begin till it was trucked to Rochefort in 1990, completed in 2020

Unique in being the only aircraft to be powered by a single Rolls Royce Dart, a total of 89 Alizé anti-sub hunters were built. Five are preserved at Rochefort, this one on a roundabout approaching the Musee de l'Aeronautique Navale, one outside the museum, one inside and two in store
