Does it have the Meteor missile or not? Without it this is just a paperweight.

I would think it does because unlike the US the French have no reason to degrade Indonesian weapons vs Australian ones or some tomfoolery like that.
But I remain hesitant to believe this. The French already stiffed the Egyptians before although the Jewish lobby in France is also way more important.
