The ''Adroit'' class was a group of fourteen ''Bourrasque'' class, with the same armament, but being slightly heavier overall. 

The class saw varied service in the Second World War.

''La Railleuse'' was the first French destroyer casualty of the War, on 24 March 1940, being blown up in Casablanca harbour by an accidental torpedo explosion. ''L'Adroit'' was sunk by a bomb from a German shore batteries until the French capitulation. ''Le Foudroyant'' was sunk in similar circumstances, but with more loss of life, on 1 June 1940. 

''Basque'', ''Forbin'' and ''Fortuné'' were part of the French Alexandria squadron, which were disarmed by the British on 22 June 1940 following French capitulation. They were rearmed under Free French auspices in December 1943.

Le ''tourpedillereur d'escadre'' ''(t standard, armate con 4 cannoni da 130mm e realizzate a far tempo dal 1928.

Erano navi estranee alla logica della concorrenza con gli italiani, e rappresentavano piuttosto l'accezione classica del cacciatorpediniere economico e producibili in buon numero.

Avevano un'apparto propulsivo che verteva su 2 gruppi d iturbine a vapore dalla potenza di 33.000 hp, con le caldaie che disponevano di 3 fumaioli.
