On fait maintenant appel à des société privées (et on fait venir les avions de Floride) pour simuler la menace aérienne dans GABIAN... Autrement dit, il n'y a apparemment pas d'Alphajet, de Mirage 2000B (encore moins de -5, D ou Rafale) de dispo pour assurer cela à moindre cout. Pourtant, quand j’étais à bord de la FREMM Normandie lors des essais système de combat, ce sont deux Rafales qui servaient de "menace". A Douglas A-4 Skyhawk acting as an agressor simulates an air attack on ITS Sirocco during the AAW part of GABIAN exercise. The aircraft belongs to private US company Draken International. http://www.navyrecognition.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=3400

Justement concernant les torpilles, j'ai demandé, on m'a répondu vaguement "on travaille sur plusieurs solutions". Après, Dassault n'a pas voulu développer, la priorité étant clairement la modernisation des ATL 2...

J'ai essayé de faire une espèce de genèse de l'Aquitaine... mais mon site n'est pas assé vieux :) French Navy Announced Aquitaine Frigate, First Ship of FREMM Class, is Now on Active Duty The French Navy (Marine Nationale) just announced that the Aquitaine Frigate, first ship of the FREMM class of multi-mission frigates, has now entered "active duty" (admission au service actif in French). As we reported last week, Aquitaine is expected to join the Charles de Gaulle carrier strike group (CSG) in the coming days. This will be the first operational deployment for this new generation frigate. http://www.navyrecognition.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=3300
