Vauquelin — French Tech Tree Tier VI Destroyer.

A further development of the large destroyer sub-type (French "contre-torpilleurs"). In contrast to the Guépard class, she featured artillery with enhanced rapid-firing capabilities. Additionally, as opposed to the Aigle class, she had her torpedo armament arranged in a different manner, providing wider rotation angles for her torpedo tubes.

Entered Service: 1930
Ships in a series: 6

Ship Traits
Agile: Above average ability to change direction.	Barrage: Equipped or can be equipped with Main Battery Reload Booster.	No Smoking: This destroyer lacks a smokescreen generator.
