Could the Italian carrier Giuseppe Garibaldi be converted to operate Rafales?
Short answerTheir operational requirements do not match in this assessment. Rebuilding the ship or aircraft could address that mismatch at very high cost.
NotesThe answer asks whether Rafale's operational requirements match what Giuseppe Garibaldi can provide. If those requirements do not match, the combination will not work. Rebuilding the ship or redesigning the aircraft is acknowledged as a possible response, with either described as extremely expensive. No detailed conversion specification is supplied.
