Woah! You might be thinking. "France?" Yes! France did actually use a couple of A6M2 Zeroes at the end of the war. They were in service from 1946 - 1947, also seeing combat during this time. Here is some info from Wikipedia: The Armée de l'Air (French Air Force) used the Mitsubishi A6M2 Model 21 "Zeke" and Nakajima A6M2-N "Rufes" against rebels in Indochina during 1945–46, according to Harvey Low in "Japanese Aircraft in foreign service (WWII and Post WWII)" research.[citation needed][7] The Aéronautique Naval also pressed a single Nakajima A6M2-N into service, but the aircraft crashed shortly after being overhauled.[
