We do not know if this is a first, but it is certainly the first time we are tracking it.

This morning, a (or more likely a pair of) French Air Force Mirage 2000D (callsign FAF2103) flew a mission over the Black Sea.

The aircraft, which departed directly from Nancy AB in eastern France, conducted a flight of about an hour and a half (09:30 to 11:00 CET) over the Black Sea at an altitude of about 38,000 feet and at a speed of over 700 knots.

Part of the flight is not tracked because, in all probability, the French aircraft switched off the ADS-B transponder.

We have never before been able to track French aircraft over the Black Sea, let alone fighter-bombers like the Mirage 2000D. Further proof, if any were needed, that tensions in the area remain very high.

    700 knots is quite fast, no?

      700 kts is over mach 1, i.e faster than the speed of sound
