France new SSBN (SNLE) being built

5 Months ago the steel was cut for the next generation of SSBN for the Marine Nationale.

There's some things I certainly like about the boat one of the key things is the retaining of 16 missiles unlike the UK which is going to 12.
The project is also running right alongside the Suffren program and means there's no hang ups between projects (saves time and money).
France also maintains its independence with regards to its nuclear weapons and systems

Have to Say I am actually looking forward to seeing the finished boat in a few years time.

And yes Jimbuna I am feeling well and I am ok I'm not having a mid life crisis.
