I don't see why France would need more, considering they have 290 nuclear bombs, and are fourth after the US, Russia, and China.

I was actually surprised, but France even has 4 ballistic missile subs, and is planning to get more. TBH that's what we need as a deterrent, a credible second strike tool.

More integration wouldn't hurt though, maybe make the SNLE program a multinational program like the FCAS or this new tank is.
