Nuke test at Istres

A quite rare sight of  A mirage 2000N from the 03.004 "Limousin" squadron carrying an ASMP-A nuclear missile. It was spotted  yesterday by Tucano13800 at the Istres Air base. I could be wrong but the missile looks like an instrumented one. This impressive tri-sonic missile is also operational on the Rafale B/C and M since summer 2010 (2009 for the Mirage 2000N)
