The Dassault Mystere was the first fighter jet to fly for the French Air Force. It was one of the first production swept wing aircraft of Western Europe. On October 28, 1952 it became the first French aircraft to go supersonic in controlled flight during a dive.
Newer variants of the aircraft received upgrades through the years. The model IV differed from prior models in that it had a more oval fuselage, greater sweep to the now thinner wings, and upgraded tail surfaces.
The ultimate development model Super Mystere was larger and heavier than its predecessors. The aircraft was capable of transonic flight when flying level. Its wings were the most swept back of any model, at 45 degrees. These aircraft were used primarily in the attack role.
The Dassault Mystere saw action for Israel in their 1956 war against Egypt. In 1965 the Indian Air Force used the aircraft for ground support missions in the war with Pakistan.
In addition to France, Israel, and India, the aircraft were also used by Honduras. There, they continued in service until 1998.
A total of 725 Dassault Mystere aircraft of all types were produced.
