Of course it is, on the 7 Leygues and on the 5 Lafayette.Darrel_topgun said:Is it still in use?
Range 13km.
The Leygues will be deleted by 2018 (replaced by FREMM with Aster 15), while the Lafayette will be eventually modernized and receive Aster instead of Crotale.
If my memory is correct there is also a Crotale NG which is faster. However the arrival of Aster has stopped any further development.
