They were a development from his earlier Tonnant class. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4Armament[edit]As built, the first two ships of this class carried the same 80-gun armament as their predecessors of the Tonnant class – thirty 36-livre guns on the lower deck, thirty-two 24-livre guns on the upper deck, and eighteen 12-livre guns plus six 36-livre obusiers (howitzers) on the spar deck above (the French livre was about 8% greater than the British pound weight, so that the 36-livre round equated to 38lbs 13.6oz).Under the 1806 r\u00e8glement, the spar deck ordnance was altered to fourteen 12-livre guns plus ten 36-livre carronades. Subsequently, additional 36-livre carronades were carried by most later ships of the class, raising them to 86-gun ships (with variations in actual numbers).Ships in class[edit]Builder: ToulonOrdered: 16 September 1802Begun: 22 November 1802Launched: 13 July 1803Completed: January 1804Fate: Captured by the Royal Navy on 21 October 1805 following Trafalgar.
