Model History and Information: Escadron de Chasse 3/11 'Corse' traces its lineage to 1933 and carries the traditions of two historic escadrilles, SPA 88 'Serpent' and SPA 69 'Chat'. SPA 88 originated as a First World War unit, and in 2017 the French Air Force marked its centenary with a commemorative Mirage 2000-5F scheme. The Mirage 2000-5 is a delta-wing, single-engine multirole fighter fitted with the RDY radar, MICA missiles and a modernized cockpit. By 2017 the squadron was based at BA 188 in Djibouti, where it provided air defense for French interests at the mouth of the Red Sea. The unit's history spans the Second World War, Indochina, the Suez Crisis, the Gulf War and Bosnia.
