The largest and most powerful representative of the ''aviso'' type, the French Navy equivalent of sloops and gunboats. This warship was intended for colonial service abroad and carried armament that was quite good for her size.


|Performance=<!-- write text about performance in battles below -->
===Pros===
The gateway to the ''Marine Nationale'' in World of Warships starts here with Tier I's ''Bougainville''.  She represents a class of ''avisos'' (dispatch boats) that were constructed in the 1930s.
* Pro 1
* Pro 2


''Bougainville'' has a long rudder shift time and slow top speed to go with almost no armor protection to speak of.  Her speed and rudder shift time combine to make her handle sluggishly for a Tier I ship — especially compared to the likes of ''[[Black Swan]]'' or ''[[Orlan]]''.
===Cons===
* Con 1
* Con 2


|Pros=<!-- write list of positive points below. use * as in ordinary wiki-list. -->
* Second-largest health pool of all Tier I ships.
* Highest shell damage of all Tier I ships.
* High damage per minute.


|Cons=<!-- write list of negative points below. use * as in ordinary wiki-list. -->
==Ship Stats==
* Slowest Tier I ship (together with ''[[Black Swan]]'' and ''[[Chengan]]'').

''Bougainville'' was the lead ship of a class of nine (ten planned) ''avisos'' of the French Navy, launched on 25 April 1931 and commissioned on 15 February 1933. The ship was designed to operate from French colonies in Asia and Africa and was initially stationed in the Indian Ocean. In 1935 she was transferred for service in the eastern and southern Mediterranean, and in early 1939 to Djibouti, returning to Toulon escorting a group of submarines after the outbreak of World War II.
 
She sided with Vichy France and was sunk off Libreville by her sister ship ''Savorgnan de Brazza'' on 9 November 1940 in the Battle of Gabon. Although she was refloated in March 1941, she sank again and remained so until she was broken up for scrap in 1952.

Bougainville — France Premium Tier I Cruiser.

The Bougainville sloops in the French Navy were classified as "colonial aviso" and were intended to serve in the overseas territories of the Republic. The ships were equipped for service in the tropics and had rooms for a task force staff and its commander. Their long range was provided by a reliable and economical diesel power plant. During World War II, most of the Bougainville aviso served in the Atlantic, off the coast of Africa, and in the Pacific Ocean.
