Hmmm, I dunno. Only 4 tubes. Your Exocet is capeable but ageing, the Harpoon D is far more survivable and lethal - and thats going by the export Harpoon C version. Do you sell or know of a nation that has the Trident II D-5 - far more capable than the M-45, carried in US Ohio and British Vanguard submarines? (On the plus, your nukes are cheap!)

I know all of this. Ive studied nuclear submarines for quite a while. This Sub was targeted towards smaller nations to build thier strategic naval forces. My next sub will be one to rival the Ohio class

Its a French sub with a french name so the speeling is proabably right ;)


Just as a side option would you perhaps be interesting in co developing a tomahawk VLS insert for the SLBM tubes (similar to the 7packs for the ohio criuse missile varient) or using what ever the criuses missiles the french use (possibly none bar air launched a tthe moment i can't remeber off the top of my head.

Anyway thumbs up for presenting the other european option.

Sure, and if we upgrade the missile tubes, why not just develop a better more up to date version (same class of course)
Crookfur

It could be done :)

And if you do go for a upgraded batch then i have other interesting things for missile tubes...

you do realise this has been replaced by the L'inflexible class, and its French so count on the technology being compltely uselless and overpirced.
