Tier X Cruiser

France

Henri IV

The project for a heavy cruiser with a displacement of 13,000 tons was supposed to be armed with nine 203 mm guns in three triple-gun turrets. However, the lifting of all restrictions due to the outbreak of war allowed for the construction of ships with more powerful guns. One of the suitable guns at the beginning of World War II in France was the 240 mm Schneider gun.
