When the French decided to massively embrace nuclear power, they looked around to see who had the best nuclear program. They swallowed their pride and decided the US Navy's program was far and away the best. They in fact asked Jerry Ford to send Admiral Rickover to France to tell them how to do it. I'd like to have seen the collision between the imperious Rickover and the French, but long term they implemented the US Navy system lock, stock, and barrel.

The USS Enterprise has eight reactors.
