Summary[edit]

Description Aerial view of the French battleship Richelieu off New York City (USA), 1943.
Note that in the original description the photo was taken by a U.S. Navy patrol plane when Richelieu was en route to New York, which was in February 1943. However, in the photos she is already equipped with 40 mm and 20 mm flak guns, her forward turret is repaired and her aircraft installations aft have been removed. The photo was therefore taken after her refit, in September or October 1943.
