On the American aircraft carrier will place the French fighters

22
France was temporarily left without an aircraft carrier, but its planes will continue their military service. On the website of the Naval Institute of the US Navy appeared information that the American aircraft carrier George HW Bush (CVN-77) will take over the French fighter Dassault Rafale M.

Deployment of the French air wing on the US aircraft carrier is scheduled for April-May of this year. On board the aircraft carrier George HW Bush will be placed 350 man from the French wing (pilots, aircraft mechanics and support personnel), as well as an unnamed number of fighters Rafale M.

According to the French naval attache in the United States, Jean-Emmanuel Roux de Luz, during the deployment, “something more” is planned than qualifying flights or cross-deck operations.

We want to demonstrate our ability to integrate with the US military. We want to show that we serve, use and charge our weapon
- said the attache.

During the deployment, the Dassault Rafale M fighters will act as part of the aircraft wing of the aircraft carrier George HW Bush and will work on various flight scenarios with the Northop Grumman E-2C Hawkeye carrier-based reconnaissance aircraft. At the same time, representatives of the French Ministry of Defense noted that there would be no problems with the use of French military equipment on an American ship, since "they are 95% compatible," reports "Warspot"

      Do the right thing! So that pilots and technicians do not lose their qualifications.

        There will probably be weddings and the full integration of French pilots into American and vice versa laughing

    A normal solution, in order not to lose the level of training of pilots and deck technicians, the simulator is one thing, and flights are completely different.

        So not pulled. An aircraft carrier would not hurt, another thing is the price and escort to provide him. He will be, but then

      A mutually beneficial solution - the French need practice, and the Americans do not have enough pilots for carrier-based aircraft, and therefore they take aliens with planes to plug holes together

          Yes, and let them get ready. I understand that the mattresses were obviously not provided to the French for "thanks" to the French. wink

      You flock to a flock of "VO" here, and they create a full-fledged naval alliance. And who do you tell us, with all sorts of Belarusian pasha to move towards them? So he will sit in his pine forest.

    This is not a union. This is a gang of armed robbers. And what they do only exacerbates their essence and purpose. Have you heard about Libya? Gaddafi's 140 billion euros remained in French banks, payment for joint robbery. Robbing passers-by small, but ruining the country is profitable for thousands of percent
