Zhoregiberi served impeccably for 37 years, the first 20 years of which were spent on constant training voyages and military campaigns. The mechanisms have never failed. Despite failures during testing and calls to change the boilers, during their entire service they were never changed and gave no reason for complaints. The artillery and speed also satisfied the sailors, although the insufficiency of the 14-cm caliber as a medium caliber and the redundancy of vertical armor in the absence of light side protection were noted. The ship did not undergo a single modernization. This is the best indicator of the prospects of the multi-turreted battleship concept itself. Gradually the French the school of shipbuilding will, to a greater or lesser extent, receive recognition in other countries; Austria-Hungary, Germany, Italy, Russia, and the United States. Obviously, the “Joregiberi” was built against the battleships of England, since France had no interest in risking battleships off the shallow coast of Germany.
