The Jeanne d'Arc (R97) was a helicopter cruiser of the French Navy.
She was the third vessel of the French Navy named after Joan of Arc
("Jeanne d'Arc", in French), a national heroine of France and saint
of the Catholic Church who repelled the English invasion during the Hundred Years' War.

In peace time, the Jeanne d'Arc was used for teaching and training purposes;
however, in case of emergency or crisis, she was to have become a fully
capable helicopter cruiser. This idea is now dropped because of the
increasing size and weight of helicopters.

The Jeanne d'Arc was built as La Résolue, as her predecessor,
the Jeanne d'Arc of 1930, was still in service. She was renamed
Jeanne d'Arc in 1964. The ship was retired in May 2010 and
decommissioned in September 2010.
