Honestly I’m French and I studied it. And that’s exactly how it happened. They were so fed up that they didn’t have the chance to storm the plane before that when they got the opportunity they fucking ran for it. Those guys were tough, It takes balls to enter a tube of steel, they didn’t know if they were going out but they were sure to get empty all the bullets in their guns on them. Props to the first guy standing at the door, he took like 7-8 bullets and also some Grenades injuries but he kept fighting

G.I.G.N are famous for their affinity with revolvers (mostly ceremonial these days but some still use them in the field.) particularly in the 90s they prefered them to more modern pistols. the rationale is their simplistic action meant they were quicker to unholster and make ready, ideal for snap-shot situations. And we are talking about elite counter terrorist troops, six shots would be more than adequate. there are several accounts of G.I.G.N operators spending countless hours honing their skills with them.

Don't forget the successful and almost impossible daring Operation Thunderbolt in 1976, from the Israeli forces. On 27 June 1976, an Air France flight 139 took off from Tel Aviv, destination CdG-Paris, with onboard 246 passengers mostly Jewish, and a crew of 12. Among the passengers 2 Palestinian and 2 German terrorists. Upon, landing in Athens it picked up 58 more passengers including 4 more terrorists. To cut a long story, short the plane was diverted to Entebbe Uganda. The result: 7 hijackers killed, 10 hostages wounded, 4 Killed, 5 Israeli soldiers wounded, and 1 killed, Lt. Jonathan Netanyahu, former Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu's older brother. The rest is history.

The second man in the column and first in the aircraft, Thierry Prungnaud, sustained a LOT of enemy fire ( he took 7 bullets in total, one is still today in his shoulder). Putting his well being on the side, he continued his assault on the cockpit until he was taken out of the fight by a bullet to the face and a grenade.He lived througt his injuries but remained partially handicaped and his operational carreer pretty much ended here. His courage and combativity were noticed by many counter terrorism units around the world and the Navy seals made him an honorable member of their unit. A really cool picture of the major Prungnaud, in great Gendarmerie uniform whith the seals' trident on his chest can be seen on the internet. The major Prungnaud has a very interesting life and career .He killed a gunman on his very first mission for the GIGN, wrote a controversial book on the horrors he witness in Rwanda, and is a highly decorated Gendarmerie NCO. I also recomend you the movie "L'Assaut" on Flight 8969 incident.

Its area of responsibility includes smaller towns, rural and suburban areas, while the Police Nationale, a civilian force, is in charge of cities and their centres.

They surprisingly carry out 200 missions a year, 100 of which fall into the expected counter-terrorism and hostage situation missions (with the oddball prison mutiny). All of these have some level of risk, from facing assault riffles to a bloke with a pitchfork. I'm assuming the other 100 are escort/security missions and the like. I doubt many missions are as perilous as this but it isn't like they wake up one day and go from training straight into combat. Fun fact I picked up from a documentary. They often say that their trainnig is harder and more dangerous than most of their missions.

Few hours before they practiced the assault with the mobile stairs on another aircraft in a maintenance hangar. The plane was empty and not fueled. When they went to open the door on the hijacked plane, its door was a few centimeters lower than the stairs... because it was partially fueled and loaded, therefore heavier, and sitting slightly lower on its tires.

Unlike vehicles, where holes can either be patched or panels can be replaced, neither can be done to a commercial jet. The fuselage is one singular pressurized tube, so replacing sections of it would be a very time consuming and expensive process that would basically require the entire fuselage to be disassembled and rebuilt. The damage caused by a bullet puncturing the skin of the aircraft could potentially cause major issues that simple patches wouldn't solve, such as micro-fractures and a general weakening of the pressure cylinder's integrity. This could lead to.more serious problems, such as a sudden loss of cabin pressure mid-flight. Therefore, even though the damage might not look like much, it was safer to scrap it to avoid the possibility of future incidents with the aircraft.

It's a detail but Thierry Prungnaud, the first operator to go into the cockpit had a Manurhin revolver, not an MP5. He killed 2 of terrorists straight away, wounded a third and got hit by the fourth who was hiding next to the cockpit door. He received several shots in his right arm, if I'm not mistaken, which is now permanently impaired, plus some other in his helmet. He fell down just outside of the cockpit. He sustained additional wounds when a grenade thrown by the terrorist blew right next to him as he was lying ont the floor. There are several interviews of him on YT, albeit mostly in French.

Well, there's a reason the GIGN is respected by peers and feared by foes. Those men will run into a bucket shitstorm and fight until they're ground beef. Shooting it out inside a tube with no proper cover and with hostages in the mix is not the kind of mess you want to see yourself get into. Mad props to major Prungnaud, who was the first to engage the highjackers and sustained massive damage before getting incapacitated.

@ekevanderzee95384 жыл бұрын
The "machine guns" were overkill and hindered them. Theybwere AK's and not machine guns. At these distances, a bullet is a bullet. Except that a 7.62 will not even notice (interior) aircraft walls and the AK's are MUCH slower to bring to bear then a handgun and are more difficult to aim in thus kind of a confined space. Allowing speed, flexibility and suprise and concealment.

@Lord Admiral Spire Wrong. Rifles are not better in ALL close combat situations. In WW1, tunnelers who dug underground to get to the enemy trenches would come across other enemy tunnelers. In such situations, rifles were too oversized for the job which is why they cut them down into obrez pistol rifles or just used revolvers instead.

It implies an imaginary hierarchy between the GIGN and other Special Forces. However, each SF nit has its own specialty, at which it excells. Some units have overlapping competences, but generally speaking, the SF are all very specialized. GIGN is best at what it does, which is anti-terror intervention. And make nop mistake this is a military unit. If French special forces are highly capable and amongst the best in the world, GIGN, which is the elite of the Gendarmerie (a branch of the military), is part of them. They are just not in the COS for political and practical reasons, and because they mostly intervene on French soil. But it's military.
