Maritime war between France and Italy in Egypt!

Only the Scalp naval is not included.. everything else is:


Read the full article till the end if something is not included they say it explicitly inside parenthesis

And this is what can be done to replace the Scalp naval:

[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]» The Egyptian Navy could have made the request to replace the 16x Sylver A70 with a second row of A50 model in order to deploy up to 32x ASTER 15 SAM.[/FONT]

» For commonality with its four future Gowind corvettes, the Egyptian Navy may have requested to replace the A70 VLS with A43 model: The FREMM would then be fitted with 16x VLS cells similar to those fitted on its corvettes and would therefore be able to launch up to 16x VL MICA missiles in addition to the 16x ASTER 15.
[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]» [/FONT]An even cheaper alternative of course would be to leave the 16x A70 cells in place since they can launch ASTER 15 missiles as well. The Egyptian Navy FREMM would then be able to deploy up to 32x ASTER 15.

As well as other cruise missiles that are MTCR compliant..[/FONT]
So what I'm getting from this is Scalp is not included but which ones will? Aster 15 is inferior to ESSM I have to admit and the ship lacks a CIWS. In my opinion the VL Mica won't them that much because of the lack of range and how it is much more suited for small ships. Overall it has good numbers in terms of missiles if that information is correct.

They can keep the VLS for Scalp naval and use other cruise missiles that are on the market and are MTCR compliant (300 Km range).. or use more Aster-15 or better yet Aster-30.. the solutions are there.. and one of these options will be taken..

The French will get the contract. France will finance its Fremm which Italy wouldn’t.
