T_47class /DUPETIT-THOUARS
(Escorteur d'escadre)
The T 47 class or Surcouf class were the first destroyers built for the French Navy after the Second World War.
Twelve ships were built between 1955 and 1957.
The ships were modernised in the 1960s and decommissioned in the 1980s, when they were replaced by the Georges Leygues-class frigates.
These ships were larger than other contemporary European destroyers and were based on the wartime Hardi class, but were enlarged and had
a dual purpose armament.
The ships were designed as Squadron escorts (Escorteur d'escadre) rather than for independent operations, therefore they had a slower speed than
their predecessors.
The main guns were the French designed Model 1948 127-millimetre (5 in)/54 gun, which enabled them to use the same 5-inch shells as the U.S. Mark 18 gun.
The secondary armament was composed of 57mm/60 mod?le 1951 guns.
During the 1960s the entire class were modernised and modified as either
flotilla flagships,
-anti-aircraft guided missile- DUPETIT-THOUARS / AAW
or anti-submarine destroyers.ASW
So 4 ships were converted between 1962 and 1965 as AAW role. = Dupetit-Thouars, Du Chayla , Bouvet, Kersaint.
were modernised as anti-aircraft guided missile destroyers in 1962–1965
