The balanced carrier air group planned for Joffre

What kind of carrier air group did France plan for the Joffre class?

A balanced mix of fighters, torpedo bombers, and dive bombers, but Joffre never entered service to operate it.

France planned to combine fighters, torpedo bombers, and dive bombers aboard the Joffre class. That mix would have supported interception, torpedo attack, and accurate dive bombing without relying on one aircraft or delivery method. Joffre never entered service, so the planned air group remained an unrealized counterpoint to British, American, and Japanese carrier doctrine. The mix reveals French carrier-aircraft ambition beyond Béarn's limited wartime record.
