- Montcalm (D642)
The "Montcalm" is a F70 type anti-submarine frigate of the French "Marine Nationale". She is the fourth French vessel named after the 18th century Marshal
marquess Louis de Montcalm de Saint Véran (see French ship "Montcalm" for the others).There are seven ships in the F70 class :
* D640 "Georges Leygues"
* D641 "Dupleix"
* D642 "Montcalm"
* D643 "Jean de Vienne"
* D644 "Primauguet"
* D645 "La Motte Picquet"
* D646 "Latouche-Tréville"Note: The French navy doesn't use the term "
destroyer " for its ships; hence some large ships, referred to as "frigates ", are registered as destroyers.Photographs
