I have use this picture on a humoristic goal.

Only because this situation where the CDG has the height of a frigate make me laugh.

So I'm sorry if it isn't clear.

Moreover this picture date of one of my first game and I wasn't a good captain of ship.

french navy is on the way to be modernised

not really that obsolete ;)

I don't know what you mean about bankrupcy, but you probably misunderstood something.
something like budget restrictions.
The disease of our army was, from the end of cold war, each time gvnmt needed money, they were pick it in the armee budget.
now it seem over, from near a decade.
Political choices and budgets are more realistic and coherent, globals, not just addition here or there.

I hope one day we could have an european armee anyway.

you have a reserve declaration of bankruptcy is when there is $0 or minus numbers coming out.

those new ships do sound good too.

at least everyone is being upgraded now days

I'm resizing the CDG, is this correct looking or is it too big?

still dont look right

the CDG is:
858FT long
211FT wide
36,600 tonnes full load

invincible class is:

677 feet long
90 feet wide
20,600 tonnes full load

Ok this looks to be a close as the DW CDG can get to being correct in scale...

Does it need to be reduced in verticle size?

looks about right now but the invincible class what did you do ? :o :o :o

invincible is right hand drive !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

the flight deck is on the wrong side TLAM !!!!!!!!!

if you need pics of the invincible il scan and give them too you !

The invincible got "Mirrored" when I extracted it from the DW graphics folder. I just put it there to scale the CDG so don't worry about it. I didn't change the Invincible and I got the CDG scaled and I'm now working on the Gepard PTG.

Is there any other wrongly scaled boats?

on the first image posted, the Var and jeanne d'arc are bigger than a US Carrier so I guess there is size problem.

there is one picture where you see the CDG with an US aircraft.
need to find it back ...

found it on the web =>

the US carrier stole us all our planes !! :roll:

The JDA looks fine to me... :-?

As for that AOR I'll look in to it...

I don't know about the French but we keep a lot of ours on deck at all times, that way we can carry extra planes in relation to our hanger space.

Anyways here is the CDG, Durance, and Gepard all resized:

Now I just need to hear back on if the converson to DW worked right.

In AEGIS we trust. :up:

thanks very much TLAM
we must check this for all surface don't you think ?
if you are OK I will do, using a reference platform to size all, like an OHP or something.
no matter if there is few % out, but not hundreds % ...
