Well, showing off the navalized Rafale is a fair exercise (they're trying to sell them to the Indians and other customers).... but I wonder why they only brought 20 a/c, since the Chuck is capable of carrying almost twice that many.
The photo shows a Hawkeye on the flight deck, which is interesting. That shows they can operate the ungainlier, larger types as well. Which is not unexpected, since the Chucky Cheese-Eater is about the size of a Midway-class CV.
And btw a U.S. carrier of that class once completed an exercise demonstrating an ability to land and fly off C-130's (thread here on FR), in the early 60's.
Was a Forrestal class CV IIRC - the first supercarrier, and larger than either the de Gaulle or the Midway.
