Marseille — France Tech Tree Tier X Cruiser.

In the process of developing a battlecruiser or "large" cruiser in the late 1920s and early 1930s, several cruiser projects with a displacement of 23,690 tons were created. One of the projects involved a ship armed with nine 330 mm guns in three triple-gun turrets on the ship's bow, with the second turret being elevated.
