Yeah seriously.
Even with the whole Libya thing, if Europe needed to do anything serious, it seems only France has the capability (and size) for any serious military option.

France??? (not talking nukes) Seriously, France? What about Spain? Or Germany, GB, etc? (My take is that the Spaniards would perform quite well compared to the rest in size, material and training, the Germans tech and organization wise and GB triumph experience wise)

Quite a sig indeed.... :) 90mm going to spoil the whole setup if fired, but did the Belgian army plan for firing? :)

My "concern" is that with that turret configuration it must be close to 2.5M tall (based on crew pictures) and it does not look to be wider than 2.5M therefore under firing conditions with the gun not facing straight ahead it must be horribly unstable unless of course it has a phenomenal recoil dampening system.
