  2. Hi Ben,
    The "forerunner" ship design for this family was the now well know L-CAT (new radical fast landing ship for the French Fleet).

    The MPC family was intended to be a very modular/flexible ships (ampbibious, Logistic, patrols uses).

    Currently 4 L-Cat were on order for the french navy (to be delivered by 2011/2012 to replace ageing LCT type) and 4 others L-Cat were in option.

    For the MPC, wait & see...
