Jacques Cartier (L9033) is one of five BATRAL ("Light ferry ship") vessels operated by the French Navy.

The BATRAL vessels are able to ferry over 400 tons of matériel, in the hangar and on the deck.

Two flat-bottom vessels allow unloading 50 men and light vehicles each.

Jacques Cartier was deployed to East Timor as part of the Australian-led INTERFET peacekeeping taskforce from 28 November 1999 to 12 January 2000.
