Jaguar GR1/GR3

The Jaguar was the first of many successful Anglo-French aviation projects since the 60s. Both France and the UK were in great need of a light, simple and inexpensive ground attack aircraft. The study of such a craft was given to Breguet in France (later Dassault-Breguet) and the British Aircraft Corporation in the SEPECAT (European company for the production of a combat trainer and tactical support aircraft).
