FS Commandant Birot was a D'Estienne d'Orves-class aviso in the French Navy.
Armed by a crew of 90 sailors, these vessels have the reputation of being among the most difficult in bad weather. Their high windage makes them particularly sensitive to pitch and roll as soon as the sea is formed.
Their armament, consequent for a vessel of this tonnage, allows them to manage a large spectrum of missions. During the Cold War, they were primarily used to patrol the continental shelf of the Atlantic Ocean in search of Soviet Navy submarines. Due to the poor performance of the hull sonar, as soon as an echo appeared, the reinforcement of an ASM frigate was necessary to chase it using its towed variable depth sonar.
Their role as patrollers now consists mainly of patrols and assistance missions, as well as participation in UN missions (blockades, flag checks) or similar marine policing tasks (fight against drugs, extraction of nationals, fisheries control, etc.). The mer-mer 38 or mer-mer 40 missiles have been landed, but they carry several machine guns and machine guns, more suited to their new missions.
Its construction cost was estimated at 270,000,000 French francs.
Commandant Birot was laid down on 23 March 1981 at Arsenal de Lorient, Lorient. Launched on 22 May 1982 and commissioned on 14 March 1984.
In May 2025, Commandant Birot conducted her final cruise embarking 18 former commanders, including Admiral Nicolas Vaujour Chief of the Naval Staff. She decommissioned from service in October 2025 and is to be replaced by one of a new class of ocean-going Patrol Vessels (the Patrouilleurs Hauturiers), which are projected to enter service from 2027.

Four of the deputies who worked in the command post during today's search--which will continue tomorrow. It's too bad the local police didn't think to call the county search and rescue team on, like, Friday. Three days missing is a long time--especially for an older at-risk person (71-year-old Alzheimer's patient)....
