      Not quite. Thanks for the correction.

      I guess they’d need more of them though and try to get other EU members to spend money…? So it’s an industry politics angle?

        “The French president said he was open to discuss the use of France’s nuclear weapons for European defense.”

        Literally the first sentence. For more details just read the article.

          I was actually surprised, but France even has 4 ballistic missile subs, and is planning to get more. TBH that’s what we need as a deterrent, a credible second strike tool.

          More integration wouldn’t hurt though, maybe make the SNLE program a multinational program like the FCAS or this new tank is.
