Bougainville was a Шаблон:Sclass of the French Navy launched on 25 April 1931 and commissioned on 15 February 1933.[1][2] The ship was designed to operate from French colonies in Asia and Africa and initially stationed in the Indian Ocean.[2] In 1935 it was transferred for service in the eastern and southern Mediterranean, and in early 1939 to Djibouti, returning to Toulon escorting a group of submarines after the outbreak of World War II.[2]

It sided with Vichy France and was sunk by off Libreville by its sister ship Шаблон:Ship on 9 November 1940 in the Battle of Gabon. Although refloated in March 1941, Bougainville sank again and was finally broken up in 1952.[2]
