At the end of 1953, drawing lessons from the Korean War, the Air Force staff and the official services, concerned with the increase in weight and aircraft prices, wrote specifications for a light interceptor.
 
 
 
The Air Force staff requested a light tactical support plane and armed fighter aircraft specially designed to operate in the vicinity of the line of fire and, in principle, at low altitude. This aircraft must be able to carry out a dual mission: to carry out ground attacks, and to fight to ensure air superiority (although aerial combat remained a secondary mission) and, for safety reasons, to be twin-engine. The French Navy, for its part, wanted to have a similar aircraft that could be loaded on its aircraft carriers.
 
 
 
In 1955, the Technical Service of Aeronautics asked Dassault to study the embarkation of the Mystère XXIV (Étendard IV), to make it an "on-board assault and low-altitude fighter aircraft". The Étendard IVM on-board prototype is an attack and fighter aircraft at low and medium altitudes, usable from aircraft carriers of the Clemenceau class, equipped with the Snecma Atar 8 turbojet engine producing over 4,000 kgf of thrust.

The first Étendard IV M flew on May 21, 1958, in Melun-Villaroche, in the hands of Jean-Marie Saget. Five pre-series aircraft are produced. The performance and carrying capacity of external loads made the Étendard IV M an excellent assault aircraft, usable in secondary missions for interception and air combat, characteristics imposed by the French Navy.
 
 
 
Between December 9, 1961 and May 26, 1965, the naval aviation received 69 Étendard IVM and 21 Étendard IVP. For the first time in its history, it reached transonic speeds. The Étendard IVM remained in active service in the French Navy until July 1991. They carried out a total of 180,000 flight hours and 25,300 landings. The Étendard IVPs remained in active service in the French Navy until July 27, 2000. They flew more than 200,000 hours.

* In Lebanon, in 1983-1984: On September 23, 1983, an aircraft was hit in the tail by a 9K32 Strela-2 surface-to-air missile, but managed to reach the aircraft carrier Foch without difficulty. Repaired, it flew again four days later.
 
* In the former Yugoslavia from 1993: On April 15, 1994, the Étendard IVP No.115, on a reconnaissance mission, was hit by a surface-to-air missile in Bosnia and Herzegovina over Gorazde. Without an elevator, riddled with impacts, Lieutenant-Commander Pierre Clary achieved a piloting feat and, with the help of his teammate, brought the plane back on-board the Clemenceau after a deck-landing at a speed higher than normal. A television crew present on the aircraft carrier immortalized the landing. The plane was repaired in the Cuers workshops and resumed flight a month and a half later.
 
* In Kosovo in 1999.

Survivability and armour

Examine the survivability of the aircraft. Note how vulnerable the structure is and how secure the pilot is, whether the fuel tanks are armoured, etc. Describe the armour, if there is any, and also mention the vulnerability of other critical aircraft systems.

Armaments

Suspended armament

Main article: DEFA 552 (30 mm)

The Etendard IVM can be outfitted with the following ordnance:

  • 2 x 30 mm DEFA 552 cannons
  • 4 x 500 lb AN-M64A1 bombs + 2 x 30 mm DEFA 552 cannons (2,000 lb total)

Usage in battles

Describe the tactics of playing in the aircraft, the features of using aircraft in a team and advice on tactics. Refrain from creating a "guide" - do not impose a single point of view, but instead, give the reader food for thought. Examine the most dangerous enemies and give recommendations on fighting them. If necessary, note the specifics of the game in different modes (AB, RB, SB).

Modules

Tier Flight performance Survivability Weaponry
I Fuselage repair Compressor M64
II New boosters Airframe Offensive 30 mm Mk83 Matra SNEB
III Wings repair Engine Nord AS.20
IV G-suit Cover New 30 mm cannons AIM-9B

Pros and cons

Summarise and briefly evaluate the vehicle in terms of its characteristics and combat effectiveness. Mark its pros and cons in the bulleted list. Try not to use more than 6 points for each of the characteristics. Avoid using categorical definitions such as "bad", "good" and the like - use substitutions with softer forms such as "inadequate" and "effective".

History

Describe the history of the creation and combat usage of the aircraft in more detail than in the introduction. If the historical reference turns out to be too long, take it to a separate article, taking a link to the article about the vehicle and adding a block "/History" (example: https://wiki.warthunder.com/(Vehicle-name)/History) and add a link to it here using the main template. Be sure to reference text and sources by using <ref></ref>, as well as adding them at the end of the article with <references />. This section may also include the vehicle's dev blog entry (if applicable) and the in-game encyclopedia description (under === In-game description ===, also if applicable).

Media

Excellent additions to the article would be video guides, screenshots from the game, and photos.
