This ship was ordered in late 1692 to be built at Toulon Dockyard, and on 20 January 1693 she was allotted the name Tonnant, taking the name of a ship lost in the action at La Hogue in June 1692.

A fifteenth pair of 12-pounders was added on the upper deck about 1706, raising her to 92 guns.

The Tonnant was rebuilt at Toulon from November 1701 to January 1702; she took part in the Battle of Vélez-Málaga on 24 August 1703.

In July 1707 - during the siege of Toulon - she and her sister were undergoing a refit in the basin of Le Mourillon, and avoided the scuttling order which affected most other French ships at Toulon; they were sailed to counter the British attack, and subsequently were used as floating batteries.

The Tonnant was condemned at Toulon on 7 April 1710, and on the following 28 May she was ordered to be sold and taken to pieces.
