Funny detail.....
Whole article is in French, except for the word "un spotter"
Apparently there is no french word for it? Or is it really the same?

As far as I know, it is the same. I don't see any exact translation in French.

Following thie incident, one month ago, and the discovery of the same problem on some jets engines, the Defense decided to ground part of the F-16's fleet.
