[Static] B.P.C.(LHD) Mistral Class. [WIP]

[[R-CON]Sgt_Doctor]

Hello everyone, i'm proud to present you our naval static !

The Mistral class is a class of four amphibious assault ships, also known as a helicopter carrier, of the French Navy. Referred to as "projection and command ships" (bâtiments de projection et de commandement or BPC), a Mistral class ship is capable of transporting and deploying 16 NH90 or Tigre helicopters, four landing barges, up to 70 vehicles including 13 Leclerc tanks, or a 40-strong Leclerc tank battalion, and 450 soldiers. The ships are equipped with a 69-bed hospital, and are capable of serving as part of a NATO Response Force, or with United Nations or European Union peace-keeping forces.

Two ships of the class are in service in the French Navy: Mistral and Tonnerre. The work on a third vessel, Dixmude, was launched in April 2009 and a fourth ship may also be built.

Indeed. More than Ace. Could we get WireFrame?
Also for a Full blown carrier in PR kind of doesnt make sense to me you know, cause of the fact that Jets off Carriers Hasnt really been in PR's Scope.


Unless I'm missing something.

For Helos and such. This is great

Don't pay attention to Leusch he loves too much French carriers

[Wilkinson]

I dont know how big this thing is compared to Essex. But if it's all enterable and stuff, and I can play hide and go seek on it.

I'm a happy camper
Cool model. I honestly can't wait to see the textures since the FF team has the most badass ones around

If we have to, we will make it enterable, but for the moment it will just be stationed in the harbour of Operation Marlin map

Thanks for your compliments
