On the morning of Tuesday, May 28, the French Navy aircraft carrier Charles de Gaulle berthed at Changi Naval Base on as part of a five-month deployment from its home port in Toulon, France.

Deployed with it is a carrier strike group comprising Rafale fighter jets, a naval multi-purpose helicopter and two Hawkeye early warning aircraft in its air wing, as well as multi-mission frigates, command and supply ship, and a nuclear attack submarine.

The deployment, dubbed Mission Clemenceau, has taken the French strike group and its crew of 3,200 through the Mediterranean and Indian oceans – two of its areas of strategic interest.
