On the French-language website Navires De La Grande Guerre, Marc Terraillon, Franck Le Bel and Yves Dufeil are compiling a list of short accounts of the 110' U.S.-built submarine chasers sold to France.
Excerpted English versions are posted here (as they are completed).
Subchaser.org Editor's notes:
In the individual listings I have omitted the data common to all the chasers of this class such as materials, engines, speed, etc. See the Statistics page for facts and figures on the chasers.
Later, as information is compiled on armament, I plan to post some data on the deck guns and other armament of the French submarine chasers.
