No less than three squadrons were equipped with the small, manoeuvrable Alpha Jet in the 1980s. The last squadron to switch to the type was the fighter-bomber squadron in Husum, Schleswig-Holstein. To support and defend NATO partner Turkey during Operation Desert Storm against Iraq, JaBoG 41 deployed twelve Alpha Jets to Erhac in south-eastern Turkey in early 1991 as part of a NATO mobile task force.
