The ''Annibal'' class was a class of two 74-gun ships of the French Navy. The type was one of the first achievements of Jacques-Noël Sané. His first design - on 24 November 1777 - was for a ship of 166 ''pieds'' (176 feet 11 inches) length, but he produced an amended design on 10 January 1779 for the ''Annibal'', and a further amended design on 3 March 1780 for her near-sister ''Northumberland''. Both ships were captured during the Third Battle of Ushant ("Bataille du 13 prairial an II" or "Glorious First of June") on 1 June 1794 off Ushant, but were not commissioned into the British Navy. * ''Annibal'' :Builder: Brest Dockyard :Ordered: 20 February 1778 :Launched: 5 October 1778 :Fate: Captured by the Royal Navy and renamed HMS ''Achille'', but broken up at Plymouth in February 1796. * ''Northumberland'' :Builder: Brest Dockyard :Ordered: :Launched: 3 May 1780 :Fate: Captured by the Royal Navy and named HMS ''Northumberland'', but broken up at Plymouth in November 1795. ==References== *Winfield, Rif and Roberts, Stephen (2015) ''French Warships in the Age of Sail 1786-1861: Design, Construction, Careers and Fates.''
