In September 1951 the French A�ronavale received an unknown number of WWII Avengers. Some were TBM-3Es that were dispersed among various Flotille (combat squadron) of which 4F was one. The 4F was based at Karouba NAS in Tunisia from September 1952 to July 1958. The French had a total of 7 land based units as well as 3 aircraft carriers. Some of the TBM-3E provided anti-surface and anti-submarine patrols during the uncompleted Anglo-French Suez operation against Egypt in 1956. France operated the TBM until 1960.
