For Iran a target rich environment. We never should have let them get this far.

"France's Charles de Gaulle aircraft carrier"

Is that the one with propellers on the front of the ship?

[ErnstStavroBlofeld]

I agree.The Strait of Hormuz is a big problem it is only 29 miles wide. Good place for an attack.

[JoSixChip]

Had to fix my tag line.

[dog breath]

Nobody, including the French, likes pirates except in movies or as a Halloween costume.

LOL

[A Strict Constructionist]

The French are getting frisky. Has the price of brass dropped.

[Mariner]

I surprised France can sail a nuke-powered ship that far.

And NO, it will not be 1/4 of the world's Carriers.

We could put 3 there and it would still not be 1/4.

However, our Carriers are the only one's that count.

A French Aircraft Carrier? Is its fastest speed “Reverse?”

[Ramius]

They finally got the De Gaulle working? Damn... that thing’s been in the yards for the first twenty years of it’s service life, I swear...

[born2bfree]

“A French Aircraft Carrier? Is its fastest speed “Reverse?””

At least we can use the French to draw out the enemy as they retreat.

[TaMoDee]

US Carrier Group will stay up wind at all times.

[ErnstStavroBlofeld]

I know. Whose bright idea was let the French to join in?

[bobby.223]

I think the carrier in the Gulf is new but the French were with CTF 150 off Somalia when I was last there in ‘05-’06.
