Hi,

Ref link above, this looks a lot like a french Mirage F1?
If it is, then probably shot at Kandahar where 3 Mirage F1s from Reims air force base relieved the Rafales...

Interesting if someone is able to confirm.

It has been discussed recently also with some concluding it is a Mirage F1, and I would agree with that.

well, the guy's fatigues look like French air force camo, which fits in with the rank insignia on the shoulders (looks like a sergent to me - twin yellow chevrons).

the beret would fit in with the commandos that secure the airbase and aircraft... I'm presuming the video was shot in afghanistan, IF it is a recent video.

Otherwise, probably tchad, were a lot of low level Mirage F1 videos have been shot by french air force people.

all guesswork of course.
