French term

zone avia / aire avia / plateforme avia

French to English Tech/Engineering Ships, Sailing, Maritime areas on a ship / ammunitions
Hello,

Can anyone confirm whether a "zone avia" on a (military) ship would be the "flight deck" in English?
My document describes it as the location where vertical replenishment (VERTREP) of ammunitions takes place.

Thanks,
Hayley
Proposed translations (English)
1 avitaillement i. e. bunkering, perhaps

Florence Thanks Florence, I think this explanation is the best fit in the context. I've asked the client to confirm.

Hayley Munitions or ammunition, but not "ammunitions".
Also, please could we have the French context. And is this an aircraft carrier?
