Document PDF / / Mistral - Tonnerre

 

In their aircraft carrier role the MISTRAL and TONNERRE BPCs can accommodate all the standard helicopters operated by the French Armed Forces (including the NH-90 NFH and Tigre), or allied helicopters (including the EH 101 Merlin, the Super Stallion and Osprey V22). The flight deck therefore extends the full length of the ship and two lifts are provided to raise the aircraft from the hangar located under the flight deck. The BPCs can receive and launch landing craft from a floodable well dock that opens to the sea at the stern (the stern door). The two vehicle hangars are used for the transport and storage of equipment, armoured vehicles or Leclerc main battle tanks. The living quarters are designed to accommodate 450 passengers (staffs or troops).

Note that the BPCs will have major hospital facilities (2 operating theatres, 50 beds 19 with medical care, expansion possibility with add loading racks).

 

Weapons and sensors have not yet been finally decided. However the BPCs will need a wide range of navigation, telecommunication and self defence equipment, plus of course the weapons carried by the aircraft and vehicles. Substantial joint service command facilities are planned; the ship will in fact be able to accommodate 150 operators with workstations in a specific premise of 850 m2.

Finally, the BPCs will be powered by pod-type electrical propulsion (electrical engines in nacelles under the hull). They are also eco-friendly with “zero discharge”, thanks to an on-board waste incinerator.
