The Constitution of the United States Navy's wooden hull, three masts, 44-gun sailing frigate, named after the United States Constitution.
The hull was made of 2000 flexible live oaks, with side walls 7 inches (178 mm) thick. The ship's construction was unique at the time, with a diagonal beam that crosses diagonally across the hull and adds considerable strength.
In June 1812, I joined the War between the United States and Britain. On August 19, 1812, off the ノバスコ Shea coast, I encountered the British Fleet frigate Gerrière (a 38-gate ship).
The Constitution fought with Gerrière and damaged Gerrière's foremast and mainmast during several collisions in the battle. This damage made Gerrière surrender and the ship was destroyed after the sailors left the ship.
The Constitution is known as "Old Iron Size" because of its strong side-guns and excellent sailing ability and its unhurt ability to bounce British artillery shells off tough Live Oak side walls during the battle.
The Constitution is still a member of the United States Navy and is the oldest active ship capable of navigation, anchored in Pier 1 at Charlestown Naval Base.
