Product Description
The Richelieu was commissioned in April 1940 as an enlarged and improved version of the preceding Dunkerque-class battleship.
A distinctive feature of this class of ship was the concentration of two quadruple main gun turrets at the front of the ship, while the three secondary guns located at the rear were not dual-purpose but were divided into anti-ship and anti-aircraft guns.
Furthermore, the smokestack was a modern MACK design that also served as the aft mast. Boasting superior concentrated defense and high-speed capabilities, this class of battleship was a well-balanced vessel, befitting the final era of French battleships.
