This is another for mattatkinsn...
I have decided to put the stats as per Richelieu post US refit (after all this ship was never completed... so this is all conjecture...), the main change is that the primary and secondary armament arcs, and number of mounts, are different.
References include...
Allied Battleships in World War Two. (1980) (Garzke & Duilin)
Battleships and Battlecruisers 1905 - 1970. (1973) (Siegfried Breyer)
French Battleships 1922 - 1956. (2009) (John Jordan and Robert Dumas)
Conway's All the World's Fighting Ships (1922 - 1946)
