The Rafale Solo Display is a French Air Force organization tasked with showcasing the handling qualities of the Rafale and the skills of Air Force pilots.

The first Rafale Solo displays were organized by the company Dassault Aviation before being entrusted to the Air Force in 2009. The 1/7 Provence fighter squadron was the first French operational unit to be equipped with the omnirole aircraft. The team appointed by the squadron to manage the Rafale displays has been responsible for taking the colors of the French military air force to new heights for the past 10 years.

In 2019, Captain Sébastien Nativel, or “Babouc,” will fly his second consecutive year as the Rafale demo pilot.
