On display at Naval Air Museum Goa. This Alizé was flown by INAS 310 "Cobras", commissioned at Hyéres by Amb. Nawab Ali Yavar Jung on 21 Mar 61 as IN's first ship-borne ASW/MR unit. The Alizé took part in Goa, the 1965 & 1971 Indo-Pak Wars, Op Pawan and Cactus. Flying off INS Vikrant in 1971 with INAS 300, Alizés dominated the coast and rivers of East Pakistan from Khulna to Cox's Bazar by sinking enemy shipping, destroying harbours, runways and flying ASW and recce missions. The Cobras won six Vir Chakras, six Nao Sena Medals and three Mentions in Despatches. This photo is copyright © Arjun Sarup, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
