you guys wanna fight with this just play janes fleet command btw nice work on the facts and the pics how much translating had to be done

Thanks for your technical appreciations, but...I'm NOT french !

Wait a minute. The French with a nuclear powered aircraft carrier? These, the same people who had kittens over our nuclear powered vessels coming anywhere near Europe? I expected them to make their vessels solar and wind powered!

ultra i didn;t mean that u were french i just asked if the info that you found was in french

what do the french need a nuclear aircraft carrier for? aren't they all against war until someone invades them and we have to come bail em out?

Eer, yeah.Sorry. But so, you didn't have to write " you guys wanna fight with this ....." My mistake is comming from what you wrote. And you know, when I think that peoples thinks that I'm french, I'm starting tobe very nervous. My hands are shaking, my eyes are rolling, my cardiac rythm is growing and so on....

And yes, what I found was in french and I did the translation myself.I didn't use a translator.

Yes, like all the others Europeans nations

It's very sad, isn't it ?
