La Foudre — French Premium Tier VII Battleship.

The favorite vessel of pirate legend Michel Le Tir packs quite a punch! La Foudre is the flagship of the French pirate fleet, and for good reasons: she's speedy, agile and dangerous with her enhanced secondaries, just like any pirate wants their ship to be. If you think she resembles battleship Jean Bart, you're onto something—Le Tir spent years recreating the ship that bore his idol's name.

La Foudre was temporarily released in the store from December 1st to December 12th, 2022, in relation to the special "pirates" event.
