The French Navy is nothing to sneeze at. e.g. Layfayette-class stealth Frigate FS Surcouf, or the even newer Formidable-class or FREMM-class ships, or it's newest submarines.
Hello AK, how are you? We have discussed French military prowess before. In the interest of saving the rest of the afternoon, this will be my only post.

I thought this was supposed to be a U.N. force. Where's the blue hats?

What have become of the genes from all the French fighters from history? Seriously (seriesly) they were killed off during the constant wars that France fought. Most of their fighting genes were lost in WWI - the few that were left fought in the French resistance during WWII and those genes were gone.
The very few fighting genes that were left joined the French Foreign Legion and were killed off in Algeria.
The same thing happened to Britain and Germany. When you lose a couple of generations of fighting genes to wars - there aren't many fighting genes left to pass on to descendents.
I strongly believe that is what is wrong with modern Europe.

When the French talk about "Net Centric Warfare" they mean that they can surrender via email.
