Background
About the ship
A variant of the first post-war destroyer project of the French Navy with new dual-purpose 127 mm guns. The need for a multipurpose main battery for destroyers became evident during World War II; however, attempts to create a suitable artillery system in France in the late 1930s were never embodied in metal. It was only in 1948, based on pre-war designs, that a 127 mm twin-gun mount was created and standardized with U.S. analogs in terms of munitions.
