Hello
Of course they are dummies (blue missiles) about the ex-Duperré have a look where she is now (Ghent Belguim) : http://www.shipspotting.com/gallery/photo.php?lid=2126392

The ex-Colbert is supposed to go for scrap at Bordeaux next summer when the ex-Jeanne D'arc will be fully scrapped - Best Regards Xtian

Phantom: I think the missiles are dummies. The COLBERT was a museum ship at Bordeaux for years.

Strange to see missiles still aboard a laid up ship, would have thought they would have been removed
