释义 |
The Flamand was a 56-gun Bordelois-class ship of the line of the French Navy. She was funded by a don des vaisseaux donation from the Estates of Flanders, and built by engineer Léon Guignace on a design by Antoine Groignard.[1] She took part in Suffren's campaign during the American Revolutionary War.[1] CareerCompleted too late to serve in the Seven Years' War, Flamand was offered to the Ottoman Navy, along with her sister-ship Ferme; however the Ottoman were disappointed by the 100 000 piastres they had to pay for the first ship, and declined to purchase a second one.[1] Activated for the American Revolutionary War, Flamand was appointed to Suffren's squadron in the Indian Ocean. She took part in the Battle of Sadras under Captain de Cuverville, as well as in the Battle of Negapatam, where she engaged the much stronger HMS Hero.[1] Flamand took part in the Battle of Cuddalore the next year; after her commanding officer, Captain Périer de Salvert, was killed, her first officer, Trublet de Villejégu, assumed command.[1]Notes, citations, and referencesNotes1. ^1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 Roche, vol. 1, p.202 2. ^1 Roche, vol. 1, p.198 Citations{{Reflist|30em}}References
