Les 30 septembre et 1er octobre 2016, les Rafale de l’armée de l’Air et les Rafale Marine du groupe aéronaval (GAN) ont mené 18 sorties d’appui au sol au profit des forces irakiennes. Le nouveau dispositif aérien de l’opération permet d’intensifier la participation de la France à la coalition internationale qui vise à vaincre Daech. Retour sur 48 heures d’activités qui ont vu, entre autres, la réalisation de cinq frappes dans les régions de Ramadi et Mossoul.

Le 30 septembre, les Rafale de l’armée de l’Air ont réalisé quatre sorties aériennes détruisant un dispositif défensif de Daech dans les reliefs qui surplombent la vallée du Tigre au nord-est de Mossoul. Dans la même journée, trois patrouilles composées de deux Rafale Marine ont été successivement engagées en appui des troupes irakiennes au sol. Trois frappes ont été réalisées et ont permis de détruire quatre positions de combat de Daech à une vingtaine de kilomètres de Mossoul. Pendant ce temps, l’E3F (AWACS), aéronef de détection et de contrôle aéroportés qui volait au-dessus du théâtre d’opérations, surveillait l’ensemble de l’activité aérienne.

Dans la journée du 1er octobre, les activités aériennes se sont poursuivies avec la réalisation de 8 sorties aériennes des Rafale (Marine et Air). Une patrouille de deux Rafale Marine a ainsi effectué une frappe au nord-ouest de la ville de Ramadi (centre de l’Irak), et a détruit une position de combat de Daech. Pendant, ce temps, un E2-C Hawkeye menait une opération de surveillance de l’espace aérien alors que trois sorties de reconnaissance étaient menées par une patrouille de Rafale Marine et un Atlantique 2 en Irak et en Syrie.

Ce déploiement du GAN permet d’intensifier le combat contre Daech en Irak et en Syrie marquant la détermination de la France à prendre toute sa part dans la lutte contre Daech. A ce jour, le dispositif complet de l’opération Chammal est structuré autour de trente-six Rafale (douze de l’armée de l’Air et vingt-quatre de la Marine nationale), d’un détachement d’artillerie CAESAR (Camion équipé d’un système d’artillerie), des bâtiments du groupe aéronaval, d’un avion de détection et de contrôle aéroportés E3F, d’un avion de ravitaillement C-135 Fr, de deux avions E-2C Hawkeye et d’un avion de patrouille maritime Atlantique 2. Il comprend également une centaine de militaires projetés à Bagdad et Erbil pour la formation et le conseil des états-majors et unités irakiennes.

Point de situation des opérations au 29 septembre 2016

CHAMMAL

APPRECIATION DE SITUATION

Sur le théâtre du Levant, la coalition maintient une pression continue sur Daech qui est globalement en difficulté sur le plan territorial et qui voit les zones qu’elle contrôle s’amoindrir de jour en jour. Daech se tient dans une posture soit de résistance face aux offensives menées, soit de harcèlement pour gêner la progression.

En Irak, la reprise de la ville de Sharqat par les Forces de sécurité irakiennes (FSI) le 22 septembre a refermé la poche de résistance qui existait à proximité de Qayyarah. Ce type d’opération constitue la suite logique des opérations de l’été qui ont vu les FSI réaliser une percée vers le Nord en dépassant des poches de résistance du groupe terroriste qu’il s’agit aujourd’hui de réduire ou de sécuriser.

ACTIVITES – de LA FORCE

Le groupe aéronaval poursuit à ce stade sa phase de montée en puissance à proximité du théâtre.

Le détachement d’artillerie déployé en Irak sur la base de Qayyarah ouest est composé de 4 canons Caesar. Il a été baptisé du nom de TF Wagram, en hommage à la bataille éponyme de Napoléon.

Cette TF représente un volume d’environ 150 soldats français et comprend, outre les 4 canons avec les équipes nécessaires à leur mise en œuvre, des éléments de commandement ainsi que des éléments de soutien pour réaliser la maintenance, fournir les moyens de communication ainsi que le soutien santé. La protection est répartie entre les unités de la coalition présentes à Qayyarah ouest.

La TF Wagram, intégrée à l’opération Chammal, fait partie du volet « appui » de la coalition. Elle fournit une capacité à produire des effets tactiques au sein d’une manœuvre de la coalition, en complément des autres unités d’appui déployées.

Une première capacité opérationnelle initiale de la TF Wagram a été prononcée. Depuis le 20 septembre, elle a réalisé 3 séquences de tirs « limités », coordonnés au sein de la coalition, et en appui d’actions des troupes irakiennes au sol.

Cette semaine, 32 sorties aériennes ont été effectuées. 3 frappes ont permis la neutralisation de 4 objectifs.
