In less than 24 hours, a fleet of tiger helicopters will fly over Paris during the July 14 parade. They are among the French Army’s most formidable combat aircraft. Four of them were, in fact, recently on a mission in the Middle East. They destroyed several Iranian Shahed drones that were targeting the Gulf states. Our colleagues at France 2 were able to accompany the pilots during rehearsals between Chartres and the French capital. #france #bastilleday #frencharmy 🔔 Subscribe to France 24 now: https://f24.my/YTen 🔴 LIVE - Watch FRANCE 24 English 24/7 here: https://f24.my/YTliveEN 🌍 Read the latest International News and Top Stories: https://www.france24.com/en/ Like us on Facebook: https://f24.my/FBen Follow us on X: https://f24.my/Xen Bluesky: https://f24.my/BSen and Threads: https://f24.my/THen Browse the news in pictures on Instagram: https://f24.my/IGen Discover our TikTok videos: https://f24.my/TKen Get the latest top stories on Telegram: https://f24.my/TGen
