Yes it has been replacing the AA52 and AAT52 with the French armed forces for a few years now. I'm not sure if all the AA52 's have been phased out or if there are still some units using them.

National commemorative ceremony to honour Sergent Maxime Blasco at the "Dôme des Invalides" in Paris.

Sgt Blasco had the reputation of a fierce warrior knowing no fear. He was highly respected in the "Chasseurs Alpins" community, having saved the life of two of his comrades after a helicopter crash in Mali in 2019. Fair skies Sergent!
