La Galissonnière — French Tech Tree Tier V Cruiser.

By the outbreak of World War II, La Galissonnière was one of the best light cruisers in the world. In contrast to her predecessor, she featured good main battery guns and the best armor protection among ships of this type. In 1943, cruisers of this class received enhanced anti-aircraft armament and surveillance radars.

Entered Service: 1936
Ships in a series: 6

Ship Traits
Long Reach: Above average main battery range. Hit them before they can hit you.	Broad Launch: Wider maximum spread of the torpedo launcher.	Compromising: High caliber AP shells overpen the armor, but may still arm, depending on shell velocity.

Player Opinion

Pros:

• Decent rate of fire compared to her predecessor, Émile Bertin
• Main battery guns are accurate, with relatively flat arcs and a decent punch
• Relatively well-armored for a light cruiser
• Long-ranged torpedoes for a cruiser
• Decent AA capability

Cons:

• Rate of fire is still worse than other cruisers at the same tier mounting the same gun caliber
• Smaller torpedo armament array compared to her predecessor
• Steering gear is noticeably vulnerable - shells landing close enough to the rudder can easily disable it
• Slower than same-tier cruisers with sluggish handling and acceleration
