Elan-class minesweeping sloop

From Warlike

Q2976072



The Élan class consisted of thirteen minesweeping sloops built for the French Navy during the 1930s. Completed in 1939–1940, the ships were originally intended as minesweepers; they were never used in that role, instead being used mostly as convoy escorts during World War II.
