Ship project history: Nearly sister ship of Charles Martel, differing by hull form and engine power. Also she had different appearance without flying deck, also bridges were cut down and military masts removed to improve stability.
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.
Modernizations: early 1900s: - 2 - 450 TT (aw); + 4 x 1 - 47/40 Hotchkiss.
Naval service: No significant events.
