|Performance=<!-- write text about performance in battles below -->
===Pros===
<!--
* High torpedo damage.
PERFORMANCE SECTION GUIDELINES
* High survivability (the ship takes less damage when hit).
1.  Write a brief intro paragraph of 1-3 sentences.
* Enhanced Engine Boost consumable available (increased bonus to the ship’s maximum speed, as well as the action time of the consumable).
2.  Write 1-3 paragraphs of "meat".  Talk about what the ship does well, what it doesn't, how it compares to same tier ships of the same type, how it compares to the previous ship in the tech tree, whatever.  Try to avoid quoting vital statistics to players unless it is really relevant (i.e. concealment); they can see those in the sidebar on the right and don't need them read back. 
3. Write a brief summary paragraph of 1-3 sentences highlighting the key takeaways from the paragraphs above.
-->


A definite step up from ''[[Enseigne Gabolde]]'', ''Fusilier'' similarly embodies the French destroyer traits of high speed in lieu of a Smoke Generator. In contrast to her predecessor, ''Fusilier'' has an additional aft main battery turret and two more torpedo tubes. However, her larger size results in less stealth and maneuverability. Her detectability range of 6.46 km doesn't win any prizes, but is only 0.87 km higher (0.78 km with [[Ship:Commander#Concealment Expert|Concealment Expert]]) than her stealthiest competitor, ''[[Phra Ruang]]''.
===Cons===
* Smoke Generator consumable unavailable.


Despite the substantial armament and health pool upgrade, guns alone cannot win all 1-on-1 engagements with enemy destroyers. While ''Fusilier'' maintains much better turret traverse by far at 20°/s (10°/s is typical at this tier), ''[[Romulus]]'' shoots shells of the same caliber faster and for more damage. This necessitates that players either choose engagements carefully (''Fusilier'' has a potent un-upgraded range of 9.5 km) or land torpedo hits (or both!).


''{{#var:ship_name}}'s'' B hull upgrade converts her two double tube torpedo launchers into two triple tube launchers - a significant upgrade. A single torpedo launcher's worth of 3 torpedoes (of which Fusilier has 2) is enough to take out even some full health cruisers, while a high speed of 34 knots (normal for Tier III destroyers) from ''{{#var:ship_name}}'s'' powerful engines allows captains to charge ahead and deliver devastating torpedo strikes should they desire. Captains should note that, though still usable, the torpedo arcs on Fusilier are narrow in comparison to her predecessor's. Overall, ''{{#var:ship_name}}'s'' torpedoes are on-par with other same-tiered destroyers - there are better torpedo-boats out there (e.g. ''[[Wakatake]]''), but ''Fusilier'' isn't built as one - and captains will find her torpedoes helpful and used often.

A final thing of note: ''Fusilier'''s A hull has no AA and her B hull has a single 37 mm gun. Though she may face Tier IV carriers, her AA is weak like other destroyers at the same tier.

''{{#var:ship_name}}'' is a larger ship than [[Ship:Ens. Gabolde|Ens. Gabolde]].  She carries the same armament (plus a little AA with the B hull), just more of it - an added gun and 2 more tubes.  She feels more substantial, not least because of the greater health pool, and has room for more powerful engines, yielding faster speed. The larger size also results in less stealth and maneuverability.

The recommended upgrades for ''{{#var:ship_name}}'' are as follows:
<!-- Add the ship code here to populate the upgrade table -->
* '''Slot 1''':  {{Main Armaments Modification 1}}
{{Ship Upgrades Section|code=PFSD103_Fusilier}}
* '''Slot 2''':  {{Engine Room Protection}} or {{Damage Control System Modification 1}}


For Slot 1, {{Main Armaments Modification 1}} will keep her armaments functioning.


Unlike the French cruisers, the French DDs don't seem especially apt to lose their steering or propulsion.  In Slot 2, {{Engine Room Protection}} is useful as incapacitation of the engine and/or steering gear can be fatal. With the Last Stand skill, {{Damage Control System Modification 1}} becomes viable in Slot 2 as it can decrease the chance of fire and flooding.

===History===
The 1,350-tonne Projet 1920 torpilleur d’escadre (1,350-tonnes referring to the displacement at normal load) was part of the ongoing French development of destroyer designs immediately following World War One. The design was proposed by the CSM (Conseil Supérieur de la Marine – Superior Council of the Navy) on 1 April 1920 and approved by the navy Minister on 28 April.
 
====Design====
The key characteristics of the 1,350-tonne design was sufficient power (about 33,000 shp) to develop a top speed of 33 knots, and an operational range of 3,000 nm at 15 knots. Armament was to be four 100mm guns, with two 75mm guns for anti-aircraft defense and a torpedo armament of 4-6 550mm tubes in two or three twin launchers.
 
However, this design was not to be built, in the end. The technical committee (Comité Technique) was unhappy with the 100mm cannon, as it was thoroughly inferior to the 120mm model used by the Regia Marina, the Marine Nationale’s Italian rivals (and the most likely future opponent of the French Navy). The decision of the Regia Marina to resume the construction of the ''[[Leone]]''-class esploratori leggeri (light scouts), which were armed with eight 120mm cannons, further validated the point of the technical committee, and effectively ended any question of its construction. On 3 July, a further meeting of the committee established in official terms that a 100mm gun was too light to be used as a destroyer gun (and a 138.6mm gun, too heavy), underlining their prior stance.
 
The rejection of the 100mm gun was not to be the end of the Projet 1920 torpilleur d’escadre, and further development would eventually result in the ''[[Bourrasque]]''-class destroyers.

Fusilier — France Tech Tree Tier III Destroyer.

The search for the optimal configuration for a new destroyer began with the construction of the 1,000-ton Enseigne Roux-class destroyers. After the end of the war, several projects were proposed, taking into account the experience of Italian and British ships. These projects were considered insufficiently strong in comparison with the latest ships of other countries, and their further development led to the appearance of the Bourrasque-class destroyer and the Jaguar-class leader.

Pros

  • High torpedo damage.
  • High survivability (the ship takes less damage when hit).
  • Enhanced Engine Boost consumable available (increased bonus to the ship’s maximum speed, as well as the action time of the consumable).

Cons

  • Smoke Generator consumable unavailable.
