Ship:Flandre

VIII

11,000 doubloons

Flandre — France Premium Tier VIII Battleship.

One of the projects developed in response to received intel about planned German battleships included the armament of three triple-gun turrets with 380 mm guns, and it was essentially a development of the Richelieu and Gascogne classes. That option was rejected, and the project that led to the creation of the Alsace-class battleship was selected as the final one.
