The Mistral class is a French-designed helicopter carrier and amphibious assault ship used by France and, since 2016, Egypt. Egypt's two ships were originally built for Russia at Saint-Nazaire, but France cancelled that sale and sold them to Egypt instead. Each carries helicopters, landing craft, vehicles and troops.
