Orage

Ship Overview

All Ships

 Orage — French • Tech Tree • Tier VIII • Destroyer.

A variant of the first French Navy post-war destroyer project with new dual-purpose 5-inch (127 mm) guns. The need for a dual-purpose main battery for destroyers became evident during World War II; however, France was unable to complete a similar system before the war. It was only in 1948 that a 5-inch (127 mm) twin-gun mount was created and standardized with U.S. munitions.
