Roussillon
One of the variants of the Alsace-class battleship design, developed in 1939. The principal distinction from other versions of the project was a main battery consisting of nine 406 mm guns. Since the French Navy did not possess such guns at the time, the construction of a battleship with this armament configuration was unlikely. However, the main reason for the project's cancellation was France's defeat on land in May–June 1940.
