In August, while still serving as Minister of the Armed Forces, Sébastien Lecornu announced the arrival of the second Force Supply Ship (Bâtiment Ravitailleur de Forces, BRF), the “Jacques Stosskopf,” which had just completed its navigation conditioning (Mise en Condition de Navigation, MECNAV). This step is essential for obtaining navigation qualification (Qualification de Navigation, QUALNAV), as well as its first at-sea replenishment (Ravitaillement à la Mer, RAM).
