Af Værnsfælles Forsvarskommando

Operation Inherent Resolve

Kampflybidraget

De danske F-16 har i den seneste uge fløjet 9 missioner, hvor der er gennemført

overvågning, efterretningsindhentning og angreb på et lager med morterer,

morterpositioner, bygninger med ISIL personel og ISIL personel som udlagde

improviserede sprængladninger (IED).

Missionerne er foregået over de irakiske provinser Erbil, Ninawa, At Ta’mim, Dahuk og Salah Ad Din samt de syriske provinser Ar Raqqah, Halab, Hims, Al Hasakah og Dayr Az Zawr.

Fra onsdag den 28. september kl. 12.00 til onsdag den 5. oktober kl. 11.00 er

følgende gældende:

– Der er fløjet 9 missioner

– Der er anvendt 6 præcisionsbomber

– Der er dermed totalt fløjet 166 missioner

– Der er totalt anvendt 231 præcisionsbomber

Træningsbidraget

Træningen af 298 politisoldater og officerer fra det irakiske Boarder Guard Police er netop afsluttet. Træningen af andre enheder gennemføres indtil 17. oktober.

Radarbidraget

Radarbidraget har til stadighed støttet koalitionen i kampen mod ISIL med både

radar- og link billede samt kommando og kontrol af koalitionens fly.

I foregående uge har bidraget i særlig grad været beskæftiget med luftrumskoordinering mellem artilleri samt bemandede og ubemandede fly til støtte for offensive operationer på landjorden, der dog har været udfordret af sandstorme i området. Radaren har været til planlagt eftersyn, der gik uproblematisk og hurtigere end forventet.

Transportbidraget

Ugens missioner er gennemført som transportmissioner af i alt mere end 65 ton gods og 128 passagerer til Tyrkiet og Irak. I september måned har bidraget transporteret 151 personer og 165 ton gods, hvilket er på linje med de første tre måneder af indsættelsen i operationen.

Standard NATO Monitoring Group 2

Forsvarets fleksible støtteskib, ABSALON, har gennemført patrulje i det vestlige

Middelhav i rammen af NATO’s Operation ACTIVE ENDEAVOUR.

ABSALON har forladt Middelhavet ved månedsskiftet for at sejle mod de britiske øer.

ABSALON skal sammen med den canadiske enhed CHARLOTTETOWN, der ligeledes indgår i Standard NATO Monitoring Group 2, deltage i den store øvelse Joint Warrior. Denne øvelse løber af stabelen to gange hvert år, og i dette efterår er det i perioden 10. – 21. oktober.

Forsvaret deltager ofte med enheder af ABSALON-klassen, IVER HUITFELDT-klassen og THETIS-klassen. Øvelsen indeholder en række scenarier, der omfatter både krise og krig.

I øvelsen deltager der skibe, fly samt tropper i land.

Se evt. mere information her:

http://www.royalnavy.mod.uk/news-and-latest-activity/operations/uk-home-waters/joint-warrior

Efter afslutning på øvelsen returnerer ABSALON til Middelhavet.

Forventet hjemkomst til Danmark er fortsat primo december.

CHAMMAL

APPRECIATION DE SITUATION

Sur l’ensemble du théâtre du Levant, la pression continue d’augmenter sur les dernières grandes emprises de Daech. Peu à peu affaiblie par les avancées militaires, l’organisation fait face à une augmentation du nombre de défections dans ses rangs et adapte ses modes d’action à la situation : elle multiplie les attentats et les actions de harcèlement, notamment dans l’Anbar et à Bagdad, pour fixer les troupes et gêner la poursuite de la libération progressive du territoire.

ACTIVITES DE LA FORCE CHAMMAL

Sur l’ensemble du théâtre, la préparation des opérations futures se traduit par une phase de repositionnement ou de consolidation des lignes de défense qui limitent les activités des forces.

Appui : volet aérien

Le groupe aéronaval (GAN) a achevé sa phase de montée en puissance. Il a donc intégré officiellement l’opération Chammal le 30 septembre. Les avions qu’il met en œuvre effectuent, depuis, des missions opérationnelles au sein de la coalition.

Cette semaine, 63 sorties ont été conduites par les avions français de l’opération Chammal au profit de la coalition :

7 vols d’ISR ont été menés par des Rafale ou par l’ATL2 tandis que les avions de commandement et de contrôle de l’espace aérien ont réalisé 6 sorties (E-2C Hawkeye et E-3F Awacs).
50 sorties de reconnaissances armées et de frappes planifiées (CAS/AI) de Rafale ont ainsi permis la réalisation de 15 frappes et la destruction de 19 objectifs.

Appui feu – TF Wagram

La TF Wagram déployée sur la base de Q-West a atteint sa pleine capacité opérationnelle. Elle poursuit ses actions en coordination avec les autres éléments d’artillerie de la coalition et en appui des troupes irakiennes au sol.
terre

Cette semaine, la TF Wagram a concentré son action sur la défense de la base avancée de la coalition et l’appui aux FSI dans la région de Qayyarah :

15 missions visant à entraver la liberté de manœuvre de l’ennemi (ex : séquence de tir pour empêcher la mise en batterie de pièces d’appui de Daech),
6 missions de tirs d’obus éclairants pour favoriser les détections par les FSI et gêner les tentatives d’infiltration,
1 mission de destruction de position ennemie (tir de contre batterie contre un emplacement de mortier de Daech).

Les engagements du GAN et de la TF Wagram au sein de l’opération Chammal correspondent à la volonté politique française d’intensification de l’effort contre Daech.

Ces moyens inscrivent leur action dans celle de la coalition. Ils viennent compléter les moyens de l’armée de l’air (avions de chasse, ravitailleurs, E-3F) et de la marine (Atlantique 2 –ATL2) déployés en permanence depuis 2 ans sur zone. Les vols réalisés par le groupe aérien embarqué comme les appuis que viennent fournir les canons Caesar constituent un renforcement significatif de notre pilier appui au sein de l’opération qui permet potentiellement d’intensifier les frappes.

Le pilier appui de l’opération Chammal constitué autour des moyens aériens et d’artillerie est complété par le pilier formation avec les détachements français présents à Bagdad et à Erbil  au sein des TF Narvik et Montsabert au service des forces armées irakiennes.

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.

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.

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.
