Richelieu from above-left
Here we see the French battleship Richelieu from above and the left, giving us a good view of the secondary armament that was carried behind her superstructure. This included her nine 6in guns carried in three triple turrets, all of which could fire to the rear, but only two to each side. Extra anti-aircraft guns have been added towards the stern of the ship.
