Aéronavale (French Navy) Dassault Rafale M 15 and 38, Flotille 11F, NTM 2014 Schleswig-Jagel

Aéronavale (French Naval Aviation) Dassault Rafale M 15 (c/n 31) and in the background 38 (c/n 38) of Flottille 11F at Schleswig-Jagel (ETNS) Germany during the Nato Tiger Meet 2014 Spotter Day (photo 7496-3).

The 11th Flottille does not have a tiger in its crest but the aircraft carrier ‘Clemenceau’ did carry the tiger crest when they joined the Nato Tiger Association. When Clemenceau retired from service in 1997 the squadron was allowed to keep their tiger-status because they had shown true tiger spirit in their Clemenceau years. Flotille 11F operates the Dassault Aviation Rafale M (M for Marine, Navy version) since September 2011. For its off base operations 11F makes use of the aircraft carrier ‘Charles De Gaulle’ (source: www.natotigers.org)

On the Rafale M (source: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dassault_Rafale):
The Rafale M is the carrier-borne version of the Rafale developed for the Aéronavale. The Rafale M entered service in 2001. For carrier operations, the M model has a strengthened airframe, longer nose gear leg to provide a more nose-up attitude, larger tailhook between the engines, and a built-in boarding ladder. Consequently, the Rafale M weighs about 500 kg (1,100 lb) more than the Rafale C. It is the only non-US fighter type cleared to operate from the decks of US carriers, using catapults and their arresting gear, as demonstrated in 2008 when 6 Rafales from Flottille 12F integrated into the USS Theodore Roosevelt Carrier Air Wing interoperability exercise.
