Overall, Béarn had a fairly quiet career and actually never launched aircraft in combat.
The ship was laid down in January 1914, launched in April 1920 and commissioned in December 1927. Béarn was, until the Clémenceau and Foch in the 1950s/1960s, the first and only French-built carrier to serve in the Marine Nationale. The Béarn was an aircraft carrier converted from the incomplete hull of a Normandie-class battleship. Also… 21.5 knots at tier VI is gonna be really painful if it’s ever needed to reposition. I have a rough idea of WG’s plans for a French carriers line but it still annoys me that our only carrier was turned into a premium ship. So… we are getting Béarn… as a tier VI… and it’s a premium.
