Numerous factors have influences the French government to reach a decision to transform thoroughly the armed forces, the most decisive and significant experiences were acquired in the Gulf War. Appearing difficulties on the contingent forming stage, trouble with transporting relatively small troops on a long distance and problems resulting from the lack of its own reconnaissance system clearly exposed weaknesses of some French defence elements. Accepted transformation assumptions stipulate a gradual complete resignation from compulsory military service, increasing the armed forces manpower, the core of would be professional (career) cadre, complemented by contract soldiers. The armed forces reform is connected not only with the necessity to finance rapid reaction forces being created, but also with preparing a number of protection actions which would enable the dismissed cadre to take advantage of earlier retirement or to be employed in a civilian sector. Analysts agree that financial measures forecast in the 1997 - 2002 programme law and successive defence budgets will not be satisfactory for a complete and effective realisation of the reform.
