Foudroyant was a Dévastation-class ironclad floating battery built for the French Navy during the Crimean War. Completed in 1855, she was intended to serve in the Baltic Sea against the Russian Empire, but operations there ended before she could leave France. The ship was stricken from the navy list in 1871 and scrapped in 1874.
