Extreme Constructions: The Thunder French Documentary Extreme Constructions - The Paris Metro: • Extreme Constructions: The Paris Metro ... With a displacement of 21,500 tons at full load, the Thunder, which is part of the Projection and Command Ships (BPC), is, after the Charles de Gaulle, the largest ship in the French Navy. This type of ship, equipped with revolutionary equipment and packed with high technology, is capable of intervening in very different situations, as it did in Saint-Barthélemy, victim of Hurricane Irma in September 2017. This ship of the future is a real "Swiss army knife". Both an airmobile base, a command post and equipped with a floating hospital, it has the capacity to house troops, helicopters and vehicles. For the first time, a single ship combines all of these capabilities. This massive-looking ship, whose flight deck is a metre higher than that of the Charles de Gaulle aircraft carrier, has, with its island on the starboard side, the appearance of a real aircraft carrier. We will discover that the ship's aircraft fleet is very large, designed for 16 helicopters. The aircraft are housed and maintained in a vast 1,800 m² hangar served by two lifts. The Tonnerre is, however, not just a helicopter carrier. It is also an amphibious ship. A major innovation that gives it the appearance of a "James Bond" ship, the Tonnerre's inland waterways installed on its sides consist of 4 equipment transport barges that go directly out to sea from the rear of the ship. The platform communicates directly with the vehicle hangar, a room stretching over two decks and which can store 70 vehicles, including a battalion of 13 Leclerc tanks. An extraordinary building that this documentary shows us for the first time. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Subscribe for free to the Free Documentary Français channel: https://bit.ly/4bLSd0x Instagram: / free.documentary Facebook: https://bit.ly/2QfRxbG ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ #FreeDocumentary #Documentary #construction ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Free Documentary Français is dedicated to bringing you high-quality documentaries in French on YouTube for free, with the latest camera equipment used by renowned filmmakers working for famous production studios.
