Transactions
1825 tons are received from Russia for the construction of export Cybèle-class submarines.

Other Notes
Experimental Motor Torpedo Boat La Combattante continues conducting extensive trials in the Manche to test its experimental gas turbine.

Construction continues on the new aircraft carriers Le Terrible and Tonnant. An unofficial model 3m long is displayed at the French Navy Museum in Toulon, showing a ship with enclosed hurricane bows (as on the previous three carrier classes), three catapults, and a starboard-side island with an angled funnel. Meanwhile, the carrier Foudroyant is completed, with Formidable shortly to follow.

The four Indochinese destroyers of the Ly Thuong Kiet class continue conducting sea trials in the Mediterranean. The lead two vessels have finished their training but remain in the Mediterranean awaiting the second pair of vessels. They will deploy to Indochina in June 1949.

A major program to increase the quantity of fleet auxiliaries is underway.

Marine Nationale Order of Battle, July 1st, 1949
The Marine Nationale is divided into three major and one minor fleet organizations based on geography: the Atlantic, Mediterranean, and Pacific Fleets, and the Indian Ocean Flotilla. Due to differing mission priorities as well as effective command and control, the Pacific Fleet is subdivided into East and West, each incorporating a defined overall operations area, although both exist under the same overall command. The Mediterranean Fleet possesses the bulk of the French Navy's surface forces, which can be assigned to the Force d'Action Naval (Naval Action Force).
