France has added brand-new nuclear submarines to its fleet, and there are many more to come. The ones France has right now are already strategically dispatched, ready to vaporize every major Russian city. If Russia attacks, France’s response would be immediate. No need to wait for NATO’s decision. However, if that time comes it’s over for humanity. Putin’s wet fantasy would have become true.
“France’s navy is replacing its Rubis-class submarines with more modern and more heavily armed nuclear-powered submarines. The first of the new Suffren class of attack submarines has been in service since June 2022. The second, the Duguay Trouin, went into service this month. Another four Suffren-class submarines are to join the fleet by 2030.
They will replace the remaining three Rubis-class vessels, which were built in the 1980s.”
France is weak.
Yes they have some nuke subs.
If Russia launched hypersonic nukes, weak France would be destroyed before their subs received notification.
In all likelihood, it would fall on one of the 235 official vacation days in France and the subs would be off duty anyway..l
