Dassault MD-450 Ouragan

Last updated on: July 27, 2012
365 of these straight-wing all-metal fighter bombers were built, serving for a short time in the French Air Force. The type was transferred to the Israeli and Indian Air Forces in considerable numbers and saw action in numerous conflicts.
This is a work in progress and any help would be appreciated. Information on these planes is rather difficult to locate online and this work will remain incomplete unless you the readers offer to help me. Please feel free to pass along any information that you might have.
At the end of this page is a list of people who have graciously offered their help. Thank you all very much!
