98
The aircraft carrier "Charles de Gaulle", who arrived in the eastern Mediterranean region, launched an operation against terrorist groups in Syria, reports RIA News.



"The aircraft carrier will be ready for service from Monday, November 23," French Defense Minister Le Drian said on Sunday.

The exact location of the aircraft carrier for security purposes is not specified. Presumably, the cruise of the ship will last at least 4-s months.

According to the military, "on the aircraft carrier are 18 fighters Rafale, eight supersonic carrier-based attack aircraft Dassault Super-Etendard, as well as two carrier-based long-range radar detection Hawkeye"

The crew, consisting of sailors, mechanics and pilots, has 1,9 thousands of people.

        Regarding which coalition Russian or American France will join ...
        For the sake of honesty, it should be said that Oland is likely to lie / lick again under the United States, even in such a situation as revenge against ISIS for "Paris Friday 13". We are waiting for beautiful pictures with "Raphael" soaring into the sky, smiling French pilots and rockets launched by KhZ where. But Hollande had such a good chance to join the uncompromising Putin and raise his dead rating in France.
        As Putin wrote earlier, this is "Dirty Harry" -Sheriff outside the law clamoring for the hypocritical and amorphous laws / values ​​of the West (for which it is outlawed) and killing villains at his discretion for which we are loved by ordinary / adequate residents of almost the entire globe and hate those in power.

        Hmm, a partner for "Dirty Harry" from you François from the actual and the avenger from the city ... - bullet.

            The assistance of France will be productive or not, this is not important.
            Russia owns the situation is not very bad. EW tools are used, which do not allow the Western coalition to fully get a picture of what is happening. I admit that the Char-de-Gaulle is an attempt to approach and understand how the Russian Aerospace Forces work, as well as to write down yourself in history - as one of the parties that won the war in the event of the defeat of ISIS.

            But what’s important ...
            In the future, Russia will need a permanent military presence in Syria. When the problem with ISIS is resolved, it is necessary to consider options for deploying the RF Armed Forces in Syria on an ongoing basis. Syria is the control hub of the Middle East.
            And in this regard, the RF Ministry of Defense’s plans to modernize the Navy base in Tartus are encouraging so that ships of any type could moor there.

            In general, it would be nice to create a belt of Iran, Iraq, Syria + Russia = geopolitical control of the Middle East, which cuts off the Turk from the Saudis and Qatars on the one hand, and creates geopolitical superiority on the other.

            PS
            If the participation of the French is real, then this means only one thing - ISIS is gradually coming to an end, and in view of this, we will observe the all-round involvement of various Western countries in this process. After all, "it will not be good" if Russia alone defeats ISIS.

              All is correct. But I viewed from a different angle! If France begins to act together with Russia, it will be a serious blow to the political reputation of the United States! They will try to prevent this.

Once the aircraft carrier has arrived, it will definitely not be idle, because the operation is being developed jointly with us on the cruiser "Moskva", it will not be possible to take time off and bomb the desert!

        If indeed the French, like our VKS-Putin, are tasked with working "in conjunction" with our pilots, then we can expect a positive result. In the meantime, it is too early to assess the contribution of the French, as they say, wait and see. But you can expect any "prank", especially if the US intervenes in the actions of the French with its advice.

            That's right, dear! The only question is how far Assad will advance in the offensive. Will Turkey bring in troops under the pretext of protecting local Turkmens? Will introduce, with guarantees for the protection of Allies in NATO. What will happen after the real clash between Turkey and Syria? What will the Russian Armed Forces do in this case? What will the NATO fleet do?

            Why is Putin, in a fever, looking for a coalition opportunity, anyone? Yes, because he understands this situation. A lightning victory with the help of the VKS did not work, due to the very strong defense defense and excellent supply of terrorists. In which only the lazy did not take part. Not because the scum sympathized with, which can only be crushed, crushed and crushed, by a tank, a bulldozer, a sapper, a hammer, everything that comes to hand, but because the money does not smell.

Where the Jews began to play a bureaucratic second role. Truly wonderful are your deeds, Lord!

        Bashar al-Assad's army continues to attack in almost all directions. It succeeds in achieving success with the support of the Russian Aerospace Forces, which continue the operation of retaliation against the militants of the Islamic State group banned in our country.

            A group of French naval ships headed by the aircraft carrier Charles de Gaulle arrived on the Syrian coast this night. The squadron is escorted by a frigate of the naval forces of Belgium and a destroyer of the Royal Navy of Great Britain.

          After all, the Syrian government issued a statement that any use of force inconsistent with them on the territory of Syria would be regarded as aggression.

      I don't understand something ... De Gaulle in the Persian Gulf? Then what can we talk about the interaction of the Russian Aerospace Forces with him. I am reading "The ship has 18 Rafale fighters, eight Dassault Super-Etendard supersonic carrier-based attack aircraft, and two Hawkeye carrier-based early warning aircraft."

      Even if this floating golf course lands near the coast of Iraq, which I doubt very much, its eight stormtroopers will not even be able to reach the Syrian border (there is at least 900 km in a straight line), since their radius of action is 850 km. Rafaeli, although they have a range of 1800 km as an interceptor, as a strike aircraft, that is, missiles and bombs, can fly away from the aircraft carrier only 1100 km, which means that they will reach the maximum Deir ez-Zor , if they will fly in a straight line, And even Rakku will not get it.

      So De Gaulle aimed at Iraq, not at Syria. And this is good, if the French do not help, then at least they will not do much harm.

            Take care of yourself, when yawning, hold the jaw with your hands, so as not to accidentally dislocate the jaw joint! Although, if you lead your clan from an viper tribe, then you do not need my sympathy (snakes do not dislocate).

    And that's all: "Charles de Gaulle is going to leave" ... "Charles de Gaulle is sailing" ... "Charles de Gaulle is still sailing" ... "... sailed and will start on Monday" ...

    Still need to look how and who will be bombed.
    I do not exclude the option of "friendly fire"
    in the Syrian and Iranian army.
    Like "made a mistake, with whom it does not happen."
    Well, the most advantageous and safe
    the option would be to bomb the oil convoys.

    If there are knowledgeable people, explain how the French will work under the EW dome? Will they install our equipment on them or will they turn off the dome for the duration of the flights of French aviation? Or will they be allowed to work at a certain frequency?

      You dear to such questions, I also want to ask questions ..





      I mean ... well, why such questions? ... maybe ask me to clarify the coordinates of Russian and French ships in the Mediterranean ??

      And what ammunition on board? .... and how much fuel? and what is the plan of action?

      You know, if you don't tell the French about the electronic warfare "dome", I'm afraid they won't notice it .. Only ours (KRET) stubbornly notice it, nobody else is interested in it.

    Joint blows will bring the end of the igles closer. There may be warming between countries on this wave. After all, the French pilots fought with the Nazis along with the Soviet in Normandy-Niemen. True on our airplanes.

    The aircraft carrier was sent to bolster France's claims to a special role in the upcoming redistribution of the B.Vostok. Cooperation with those who are waging a total war of destruction against Russia as a subject of economics and politics means pulling chestnuts out of the fire, I think so. Our Western and Ukrainian "partners" in the coffin saw us in white slippers. This is indicated by Yabloko's very clear position.

Then it was necessary to all who at the end of the war abandoned Adolphus, record in the winners.

    The French are just about to bomb the terrorists, but already note that they will do it as efficiently as possible, withоintensity.
    Compared to whom?
    Really with the Russian?
    With your 18 fighters and 8 attack aircraft?

      We flew to the bombing 2(as many as two!) attack aircraft.
      Were in the air 7hours with refueling.
      On the road intercepted a group of terrorists and destroyed.
      As well as several tanks.

    It was not long ago considered that it makes no sense to use our Kuznetsov in Syria, there are few planes, few bombs, he himself is small. But the French, instead of reasoning, took even smaller AV with the same air group and applied it.

    Most likely I'm wrong, but as an option.
    But is there an arrival of this aircraft carrier with the aim of destroying it there? Everyone is waiting for how to ignite the wick of war in an adult, so that literally everyone gets involved. Amerikosy masters of different setups. If you add up the links of one chain, how to make the world fight, and make profit and sit on it yourself - according to plan.
    1- flood EU with refugees and militants
    2- organize attacks
    3- it is fair to direct anger where necessary and send EU troops to hell
    4 - organize the death of these same military
    5- well, now beat your foreheads there to death, and we will help (not free of course)
    like a note.

    What exactly is the EU, and not Russia? everything is also very predictable, the EU has all nuclear reserves under the tight control of America, and Russia is not very predictable.
