French ships, as a general rule, get little attention. Outside of a couple notable names. This isn't surprising. The French Navy did relatively little, in either of the World Wars. Through no fault of their own, of course.

But it does mean that these ships are often ignored. In today's video, we'll change that a little. By looking at the ultimate expression of the French large destroyer.

Mogador, a ship with an interesting- if very flawed -design. Unfortunately, also a ship with a very short and unlucky service life. Still, an interesting design and story.
