The Armoured Casemate Ironclad was created to offer a near invulnerable floating gun battery. Widely used by the Confederate Navy during the American Civil War, these warships were regarded as a threat to the regular Union fleet, which consisted of wooden and lightly armoured vessels. However they had a short lifespan, either destroyed by enemy fire or sunk by scuttling by retreating CSA forces. The Ironclad disappeared into obscurity after the ACW, with turreted warships proving to be the future.
