[edit] two articles

193.248.41.90 07:35, 17 August 2005 (UTC) FS Mistral and Mistral class landing platform dock, 2 articles for one ship ???

Mistral class landing platform dock deals the with Mistral type of ship, which includes the Mistral and the Tonnerre; it will contain technical informations about the type of ship. FS Mistral deals specifically about the Mistral herself; if something particular happens to the ship, the information will be featured there. Rama 07:49, 17 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] US centric

Is it just me, or does this article only use US Navy terminology for its title? Xxxxxxxxxxx 01:32, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] LPD or LHD ?

For DCN, The Mistral class is a LHD (landing helicopter dock), not a LPD. That's logical, Mistral is in fact derived from the Wasp/Tarawa concept ; it has nothing to do with Trenton-class concept. TCD of the french navy (Orage...) are LPD, but not the Mistral class.  :) Look at : http://www.dcn.fr/us/offre/batiments_surface/mistral.html —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 83.197.222.163 (talk) 19:45, 24 February 2007 (UTC).
