The Bisson class was a class of six destroyers of the French Navy built between 1912-14, used during the First World War. The class is named in tribute to the French Admiral Hippolyte Bisson who sacrificed himself aboard the ship Panayoti in 1827 during the Greek War of Independence. The class carried the same armament of two guns, four guns and four torpedo tubes in two trainable mounts as the preceding Bouclier class, while steam turbines delivered giving a speed of over (Magnon reached during sea trials, the fastest of the class).
