What is the origin of the name "Forbin class"? With google I found that it originates from a 1888 cruiser named Forbin - but I wonder if that one was originally named after Count (Chevalier) Claude de Forbin? andy 11:37, 26 Oct 2004 (UTC)
110 petty officers and 38 seamen? surely this is the wrong way around? Toby Douglass
Hi All
Not to be a complete pedant, but surely there are a few more ships other than carriers bigger than these? Richelieu, Jean Bart, Dunkerque, Strasbourg etc etc...
This page says the top speed is 30 knots+ (well I made it a little clearer), but the articles on Forbin and Chevalier Paul say 29 knots. Can anyone provide some sources (if not in English, please give a translation) as to which is correct? If someone could come up with a report or statement made from actual test results that would be great, or have none of the ships actually had speed trials yet? I just don't want to go by official plans if we have something else, as the Charles de Gaulle's actual speed was lower than the official one for some time. John Smith's 22:49, 14 August 2007 (UTC)
The title need to be changed from frigates to destroyers. The pennant number of the ships starts with a D suggesting they are destroyers. Bcs09 ( talk) 07:52, 20 November 2009 (UTC)
I have noticed that Jane's Fighting Ships 2010-2011 the dates for commissioning do not tally with the article. According to Jane's the "Andrea Doria" was commissioned in Dec-08 and the "Forbin" is listed as Dec-2010 although the suggests this date is hoped for at the time of writing.

Using Jane's FS 2010-2011 and the French Naval website I have the commissioning dates for the first of each class. The "Andrea Doria" was commissioned in December 2008 and the "Forbin" was commissioned in October 2010.

I could not find any information regarding "bean propulsor" or "bean propulsion" apart from obvious quotes from the Wikipedia articles. Could someone explain what it is? Tupsumato ( talk) 10:06, 11 September 2011 (UTC)
Cyberbot II has detected that page contains external links that have either been globally or locally blacklisted. Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia. This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam, or not a good link. If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting. If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page. If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request its removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta. When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags. The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true. Please be aware that the bot will replace removed tags, and will remove misplaced tags regularly.
Below is a list of links that were found on the main page:

it is claimed (not here, of course) that the left-right asymmetry reduces the RCS. it is possible to confirm this and give a simple explanation (I feel a destructive interference due to a different distance). pietro 151.29.249.152 ( talk) 08:38, 24 February 2017 (UTC)
There is a move discussion in progress on Talk:USS Abraham Lincoln (CVN-72) which affects this page. Please participate on that page and not in this talk page section. Thank you. — RMCD bot 09:31, 29 March 2023 (UTC)
