The Painlevé-class fleet carriers are a series of four aircraft carriers built by Chantiers Impériaux and Arsenal de Villaroche. The carriers were built in collaboration with New Tryan with influences from the Organized States' Forrestal-class aircraft carrier. With four carriers commissioned, only Gallois and Leclair are currently in service still. The previous two, the Arromanches and Painlevé have been decommissioned and retired. They are being replaced by the Bearn-class aircraft carriers and the Ferdinand Ferber-class aircraft carriers.
