Who said anything about overlap or even NATO??
I'm pretty sure France has the institutional knowledge to build a catapult w/o American help.
A country that can make fighter jets and send rockets to space can surely accomplish that.
but they may need to choose which one to do

Captain
There should be a new class for this ship: Landing Catapult Assault.

Don't like the resulting acronyms though because it's the same as something else.
I decided to bypass DeepSeek and asked Copilot AI Bot -

Me : "Can you suggest acronyms for large landing assault ship equiped with welldeck, catapult launching system, and carry helicopters, drones and manned aircraft?"

Copilot : "Of course! Here are some acronym suggestions for a large landing assault ship equipped with a well deck, catapult launching system, and capable of carrying helicopters, drones, and manned aircraft:
  1. CLAWED: Catapult Launch Assault Well Deck ship
  2. WECHARD: Well Equipped for Catapult Helicopter, Aircraft, and Drone operations
  3. WARDCAT: Well Assault Ready with Drone, Catapult, Aircraft, and Transport
  4. LWATCH: Landing Well-deck Assault Transport with Catapult, Helicopters
  5. CHAWED: Catapult, Helicopter, Aircraft, Well Deck
Let me know if any of these catch your eye, or if you'd like to tweak them further!"

LOL!! Copilot is funny.
