Hey! Great find, Nils! Never been a fan of the Jaguar M (too much problems) by seeing it on the Clemenceau and with anchor roundels...

That just looks so right!

Probably taken around 1972 or so. Jaguar looks way better than Super Etendard! A pity AdA french Jags never received more powerfull engines and upgraded avionics.

Hmmm naval Jag with Adour mk.106, the Indian nosecone  model maybe bigger wings...

I'm thinking of a carrier based two seat Jaguar N(?) with ASMP missile in the nuclear strike role.

N for "Naval"
M for "Marine"

It's up to you,  Aeronavale never really had a true designation system for its aircrafts.

This would make a very interesting model! the ASMP would go on the centerline, as the tactical AN-52 freefall bomb before it.
Add two drop tanks underwings, et voila!

But it would really need more powerfull engines.
French pilots said that Jaguar only took off because Earth is curved 
("le jaguar décolle uniquement parce que la terre est ronde" was a common joke among AdA pilots)

and vanishing links are really a pain in the a-s
