Project history

The third ship of the Charles Martel type with a shorter hull which brought the 305mm turrets near the ends of the deck. The hull was not cut down to the main deck at the stern. Although there were two large military masts, there was no flying deck and the superstructure was not great by French standards. The 139mm guns were in twin turrets at forecastle deck level abreast the fore and mainmasts, and an improvement was made by increasing the boiler rooms from the four to six.

Ship protection

Complete main belt was 2.3m high (underwater part was 1.8m). Its thickness was 450mm amidships at the upper edge tapering to 250mm at the lower edge. These digits were 300 and 250mm at ship ends. Complete 100mm upper belt had 3.0m height fwd, 1.2m amidships and 2.0m aft. Arched armour deck was connected with upper edge of main belt and sloped down at the bows. Its maximal strength was 70mm on 10mm plating. Second deck (with up to 25mm thickness) laid 0.8m under main deck, space between these decks was divided into many small compartments, filled with coal or stores.
