This is pretty much a nonsense story, i'm surprised no-one has picked up on it yet.

Lepoint pretty much trashed this article as nothing more than a 'buy more american weapons' sales pitch
Google Translate

As it concludes
The Washington Post article considers, without writing explicitly, that the Europeans would do well to buy more weapons to the United States if they want to make war in earnest. Nothing new ...
Current French stocks : SCALP-EG : 500, used 12, AASM : 2,300 (ordered 4,148) , Paveway II : 1,000+
Britain has over 850 Stormshadow cruise missiles, and i'd suggest an equal number of Paveway & Brimstone missiles.

Nothing more than a US STRONG!!!! Euros Wussies piece.
