The air defence destroyer fired Aster 30 (up to 100 kilometres) and the carrier Aster 15 (up to 30 kilometres) surface-to-air missiles at high-speed targets flying towards the simulated carrier group. The scenario was made even more realistic by electronically jamming the air target acquisition radars.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">To view<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">The following Twitter video gives a brief insight into what happens in the operations centre and on the upper deck:<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/MarineNationale\/status\/1578073088297779206?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1578073088297779206%7Ctwgr%5E082b206ecbc02e869b096f21bb30cf91306505d0%7Ctwcon%5Es1_c10&amp;ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.navaltoday.com%2F2022%2F10%2F07%2Fwatch-french-warships-destroy-aerial-targets-with-aster-missile%2F\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\"><button class=\"mfo-button\">Watch video<\/button><\/a><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_24346\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-24346\" style=\"width: 1234px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-24346 size-full\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Aster-15-SAAM-MBDA-Michel-Hans-2015-e1666384381928.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1234\" height=\"638\" srcset=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Aster-15-SAAM-MBDA-Michel-Hans-2015-e1666384381928.jpg 1234w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Aster-15-SAAM-MBDA-Michel-Hans-2015-e1666384381928-300x155.jpg 300w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Aster-15-SAAM-MBDA-Michel-Hans-2015-e1666384381928-1024x529.jpg 1024w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Aster-15-SAAM-MBDA-Michel-Hans-2015-e1666384381928-768x397.jpg 768w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Aster-15-SAAM-MBDA-Michel-Hans-2015-e1666384381928-1080x558.jpg 1080w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Aster-15-SAAM-MBDA-Michel-Hans-2015-e1666384381928-750x388.jpg 750w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Aster-15-SAAM-MBDA-Michel-Hans-2015-e1666384381928-1140x589.jpg 1140w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1234px) 100vw, 1234px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-24346\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Launch of an Aster 15 air defence FK, aircraft carrier \"Charles de Gaulle\".

This ship is also the first French surface unit with nuclear propulsion and thus the only carrier powered in this way to be completed outside the USA. Its successor, the PANG (porte avions de nouvelle g\u00e9n\u00e9ration) - the next generation - has been in the preliminary design phase since last year, with the Naval Group and the Chantiers de l'Atlantique shipyard (Saint Nazaire) in charge. A model was presented during EuroNaval in Le Bourget\/Paris - we reported on this a few days ago.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Der Flugzeugtr\u00e4ger Charles de Gaulle und der Zerst\u00f6rer Chevalier Paul der Horizon-Klasse f\u00fchrten am 4.
