This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 206.189.32.0/20 has been blocked by ‪ST47‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a web host's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Caught by a web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~}}. You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and they should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 07:33, 6 August 2027. Your current IP address is 206.189.44.186.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

The '''French destroyer ''Amiral Sénès''''' was a 1916 Type [[Large Torpedo Boat]] (''Großes Torpedoboot'') of the [[Imperial German Navy]] during [[World War I]]. Built as '''SMS ''S113'''''{{#tag:ref| "SMS" stands for "''[[Seiner Majestät Schiff]]''" ({{trans|His Majesty's Ship)|group=lower-alpha}}|group=lower-alpha}}{{#tag:ref|The "S" in ''S116'' denoted  the shipbuilder who constructed her, in this case [[Schichau-Werke]].<ref name="conways06 p164">{{Harvnb|Gardiner|Gray|1985|p=164}}</ref>|group=lower-alpha}} she was the first ship of her class to be laid down, but the second and final ship of her class to be launched.

==Design==

Traditionally, the [[Imperial German Navy]] designed its torpedo boats for the primary role of torpedo attack against hostile fleets while operating with the [[High Seas Fleet]] in the North Sea, rather than defence against enemy torpedo boats. The outbreak of the [[First World War]], resulted in Germany seizing four large [[destroyer]]s that were being built by [[Germaniawerft]] for Argentina (which entered service as the {{sclass|G101|torpedo boat|2}}), and building the eight large {{sclass|B 97|destroyer|0}} torpedo boats to take advantage of machinery that was being built by German suppliers for Russia.<ref>{{Harvnb|Gardiner|Gray|1985|pp=164, 169–170}}</ref> While much bigger than existing German torpedo boats, which led to concerns that they would not fit in with German tactics for use of torpedo boats, they proved successful in service equipping the 2nd Torpedo-boat Flotilla. The success of these larger ships resulted in a requirement for a second flotilla of large torpedo boats. The new class would be designed around its gun armament, and it was decided to switch to {{cvt|15|cm|in|1}} guns to ensure they would not be outgunned by British destroyers, which were expected to be fitted with {{cvt|12|cm|in|1}} guns soon.<ref>{{harvnb|Fock|1989|pp=59–60}}</ref> While they would be considered a destroyer in any other navy, the German Navy nevertheless retained the "torpedo boat" classification for these ships (although they, along with the ''B97''s and ''G101''s were often called destroyers).<ref>{{harvnb|Gardiner|Gray|1985|pp=169–170}}</ref> On 15 April 1916, the German Navy placed orders for twelve ships of this type - three ships each with the shipyards [[Schichau-Werke]], [[AG Vulcan Stettin|A. G. Vulcan]], [[Friedrich Krupp Germaniawerft|Germaniawerft]] and [[Blohm & Voss]].<ref>{{harvnb|Fock|1989|pp=60–61}}</ref>

''S113'' was {{convert|106.0|m|ftin|abbr=on}} [[length overall|long overall]] and {{convert|105.4|m|ftin|abbr=on}} [[waterline length|at the waterline]], with a [[Beam (nautical)|beam]] of {{convert|10.2|m|ftin|abbr=on}} and a [[Draft (ship)|draft]] of {{convert|3.4|m|ftin|abbr=on}}. [[Displacement (ship)|Displacement]] was {{convert|2060|t|LT|lk=on|abbr=on}} design and {{convert|2415|t|LT|abbr=on}} deep load.<ref name=conway06p170>{{Harvnb|Gardiner|Gray|1985|p=170}}</ref> Four oil-fired [[water-tube boiler]]s supplied steam at {{convert|18.5|atm|kPa|abbr=on}} to two sets of [[steam turbine]]s, which drove two propeller shafts.<ref>{{harvnb|Fock|1989|p=61}}</ref> The machinery was rated at {{convert|45000|shp|kW|lk=on}}, giving a speed of {{convert|36|kn}}.<ref name=conway06p170/> Armament consisted of four [[15 cm SK L/45]] guns and four {{cvt|60|cm|in|1}} [[torpedo tube]]s.<ref name=conway06p170/>

==Service==

Built by the [[Schichau-Werke]] in [[Elbing]], [[Prussia]], (now Elbląg, Poland) with the [[yard number]] 983, ''S113'' she was [[Ceremonial ship launching|launched]] on 31 January 1918 and completed on 5 August 1918.<ref name="gr2p59">{{Harvnb|Gröner|Jung|Maass|1983|p=59}}</ref>

''S113'', together with [[sister-ship]] {{SMS|V116||2}}, formed the 12th Torpedo-boat flotilla at the end of the First World War.<ref>{{harvnb|Fock|1989|p=348}}</ref> ''S113'' never saw service during World War I as she was commissioned near the end of hostilities.<ref name=conway06p170/> ''S113'' was at first retained by Germany after the end of the war,<ref name="gr2p59"/> but after the German fleet interned at [[Scapa Flow|Scapa]] [[Scuttling of the German fleet at Scapa Flow|scuttled itself]] on 21 June 1919, Germany was required to hand over more warships and equipment, including ''S113'', to the [[Allies of World War I|Allies]] under the [[Treaty of Versailles]] to compensate for the ships scuttled at Scapa.<ref>{{Harvnb|Dodson|2019|pp=129–130}}</ref>

The Allies decided to transfer 10 destroyers from the ships surrendered from the German and Austro-Hungarian to each of the French and Italian navies to replace wartime losses, with France choosing ''S113'' as part of her allocation.<ref>{{harvnb|Dodson|2019|pp=129–130, 133, 135}}</ref> She was transferred to the [[French Navy]] on 23 May 1920 and renamed ''Amiral Sénès''.<ref name="conways06 p205">{{Harvnb|Gardiner|Gray|1985|p=205}}</ref> ''Amiral Sénès'' served in the French Navy until 1936 when she was used for gunnery practice and sunk on 19 July 1938.
