The Bourrasque class was a group of twelve French Navy destroyers (torpilleur) laid down in 1923 and commissioned from 1926 to 1928. Along with the heavier Chacal class, they were part of a plan to modernise the French fleet after World War I. The Bourrasques were smaller and slower than the Chacals, but were nonetheless comparable with the British V/W-class. The class saw varied service in the Second World War, in five different navies, on both sides. These ships were named after types of wind.
