Duchaffault — French Tier VI destroyer.

One of the Soldati-class destroyers built in Italy in the 1930s and 40s, formerly known as Legionario. During World War II, she participated in operations to intercept convoys, ensure the transition of the battle fleet, and deliver supplies for Italian troops. In 1948, she was transferred to France as part of reparations and renamed Duchaffault. She differed from the French destroyers in the caliber of her guns: Duchaffault was equipped with Italian 120 mm guns and 533 mm torpedo launchers.
