Background

About the ship

After the approval of the Bretagne-class battleship project, research to further improve future ships continued. The designers took the extensive route by assembling 340 mm guns in three quadruple-gun turrets. The armor layout was slightly changed, too. However, the construction of ships was suspended at the height of World War I, and after the end of the war, the project was completely abandoned.

Technical data imported from the public Wargaming API. For tech-tree ships, the displayed statistics use the fully researched configuration, before commander skills, upgrades, signals and other modifiers. Values may change with game updates.
