Phil T Posted February 17, 2009 Posted February 17, 2009 Two large patches unknown to me.The 2/2 C?te D'Or was a French Air Force unit created in 1965 and disbanded on Sept. 2007 in charge of intercepting any aircraft jeopardizing the French Aerial territory. They flew Mirage 2000-5F and were based at Dijon-Longvic AFB. The unit was made up of 3 famous squadrons which, for at least 2 of them, were created during WWI.
