That NGDS hard/softkill pedestal looks inspired. Got to be interesting as a retrofit option for all manner of auxiliaries and similar large 'non-combatants' that the new threat environment places at increased risk.
Getting some hard-kill at the expense of 50% of your soft kill/decoys magazine depth seems to me to be one reeeaaally hard tradeoff to make, unless you are awfully constrained in terms of deck space and can't afford to cram a dedicated launcher someplace. I assume the decoys are fired "up above" while the Mistrals are aimed strait at the target, so I wonder how both roles conflict with eachother and if they diminish the overall efficiency of the system.
@@CardSharkOfficial Depends on the threat gradient I'd expect. There will be threat systems, and environments, where softkill is more appropriate and others where you want the missiles. As I understand it the mount is modular and can fit either missiles or decoy tubes in the most appropriate configuration. For me this has a role, for a combatant, augmenting fixed decoy launchers around the ship and adding the inner-layer missile sited for best arcs....or as a bolt on for ships with little/no direct self-defence capability in which case its a 100% enhancement!.
Xavier, please also cover about new aircraft carrier design for france navy in euronaval 2024. We noticed the catapult design has changed from the initial design. I wonder why they changed it? Thank you, and have a nice day!
You should comment under Dassault Aviation. But the French will not give top tech to Bangladesh as long as the situation there remains fragile and unstable.

Exactly!

Je pense que tout le monde préférerais vous entendre parler en français avec des sous-titres en anglais pour les anglophones.
Superbe. Question idiote, mais pourquoi les bâtiments ne sont pas équipés avec une protection active comme le diamant ?
7:31 are those 2 panels composed of TR modules? Or only a small portion?
9:11 Simbad-RC becomes obsolete

We need Rafale Fighter Jet

Yes, and the french navy are also equipping their ships with this system after their mission(s) in the Red Sea.

Amazing technology. Just keep inside Nato. .-)
Il faut être honnête................. Les langues, c'est vraiment pas notre truc à nous Français !!!!
