The Patrouille de France (SL) and the SL United State Navy Blue Angels have become sister squadrons over the years and an agreement was made to allow each squadron access to the technology used in their special aircraft. The three most senior pilots from both squadrons would be issued an aircraft in training livery: the full blue internship colors for the F/A-18C Hornet and the in GE 314 (Groupement école) 'Christian Martel' colors for the Alphajet.
The exchange, known as 3-4-3, took place during the 10 year anniversary of the PAF (SL), October 21, 2019, at their base of Salon. Both squadrons now have the capacity of practicing together and studying each other's methods. For the PAF (SL) the pilots are Cnl. Rhea Thor, Lcl. Paterne Lefavre and Lcl. Mara Klaber. For the Blue Angels the pilots are CAPT. Vickster Kuhn, CAPT. Asra Kron and CDR. Jenny Kaz.
