fkh SG http://sg.news.yahoo.com/061109/3/44o94.html Refer to the news, France launches new ICBM, now ahead of its closest rival, UK.. We now have 4 powers with ICBMs in its arsenals.. (US, Russia, France and China) UK got only IRBM and submarine based BM.
chillycraps SG I believe UK opted for SLBM instead of ICBM bcos they have no space to build silos? And definitely a force of SSBNs is more mobile.
fallin SG Incidentally, what on earth would France need ICBMs for? After all the Cold War’s been dead for the past 15 years.
calvin2224 SG Well, I have the impression the British have US Tridents with ICBM range mounted in their Resolution class SSBNs as their nuclear deterrent. I think it is more accurate to say France is one of the only 4 nations in the world to make their own ICBMs.
38 SG Survivability of SLBM is higher than the fix silo launched ICBM. The modern ICBMs are mostly mobile
tankee1981 SG I guess its just a matter of time before someone will mention about our 'Gundams' in this thread...
LRRP SG remember years ago..Chirac went against the protests of the intl community and proceeded with nuclear testing in one of the islands..and they got away with it..
