About This File
Nord 2501, powered by the SNECMA-built Bristol Hercules 738/9 engines, which was found acceptable.
Accordingly, the Noratlas was introduced to service by the Armée de l'Air on 6 December 1953.
Following its adoption by the Armée de l'Air, a number of other operators in both Europe and Africa
chose to procure the Noratlas for their own military air services. Having found itself in a similar
situation to France, the German Air Force of West Germany chose to adopt the same solution, procuring
the type for their own purposes. The Israeli Air Force, the Hellenic Air Force, and the Portuguese Air
Force all deployed the Noratlas under combat conditions.
