Named Algérie, the new cruiser would have a 110mm belt, 40mm of protection for the engineering spaces, an 80mm armored deck, and 60mm transverse bulkheads protecting the engineering spaces and magazines. Using the experience gained in the construction of the six ships of the Duquesne and Suffren classes as well as advances in construction techniques and propulsion design, a large amount of tonnage was made available for additional protection. In 1930, the Marine Nationale was to receive another heavy cruiser following the Duquesne and Suffren classes.
