The ''Vauquelin''-class large destroyers (''contre-torpilleurs'') of the French navy were laid down in 1930 and commissioned in 1931. They were very similar to the previous , the only difference being a single extra torpedo tube. The class saw action in World War II. == Ships == * :(Pennant numbers: 2, 3, 93 and X92) :Named after the 18th century naval captain Jacques Cassard :Built by Ateliers et Chantiers de Bretagne, Nantes :Completed 10 September 1933 :Scuttled 27 November 1942 :Broken up in situ 1956 * ''Chevalier Paul'' :(Pennant numbers: 3, 2, 53, X52) :Named after 17th century admiral Chevalier Paul :Built by Forges et Chantiers de la Méditerranée, Le Havre :Completed 20 July 1934 :Torpedoed and sunk off Syrian coast 16 June 1941 * ''Kersaint'' :(Pennant numbers: 9, 92, X93) :Named after Admiral Armand de Kersaint :Built by Ateliers et Chantiers de la Loire, St Nazaire :Completed 31 December 1933 :Scuttled 27 November 1942 :Broken up in situ 1950 * :(Pennant numbers: 7, 91, X91) :Named after French admiral Jean Armand de Maillé-Brézé, :Built by Ateliers et Chantiers de St Nazaire-Penhoet, St Nazaire :Completed 6 April 1933 :Lost by accidental explosion 30 April 1940, Greenock, Scotland :Refloated and scrapped * ''Tartu'' :(Pennant numbers: 1, 51, X51) :Named in honour of Jean-François Tartu :Built by Ateliers et Chantiers de la Loire, St Nazaire :Completed 31 December 1932 :Scuttled 27 November 1942 :Broken up in situ 1956 * ''Vauquelin'' :(Pennant numbers: 8, 52, X53) :Named after Moise Vauquelin :Built by Ateliers et Chantiers de France, Dunkirk :Completed 3 November 1933 :Scuttled 27 November 1942 :Broken up in situ 1951 ''Maillé Brézé'' was lost on 30 April 1940 after a torpedo accident at Greenock, Scotland, killing 25 of her crew (sabotage was suspected at the time).
