Cyrus-class post ship
The ''Cyrus''-class sixth rates of the Royal Navy were a series of sixteen post ships built to an 1812 design by Sir William Rule, the Surveyor of the Navy. The first nine ships of the class were launched in 1813 and the remaining seven in 1814. The vessels of the class served at the end of the Napoleonic War. They were built on the lines of HMS ''Hermes'', which was based in turn on the French ship ''Bonne Citoyenne''.
The ''Cyrus'' class was intended to be the counter to the new ''Frolic'' class ship-rigged sloops that were under construction for the United States Navy. No encounter took place between any vessel of the ''Frolic'' class and one of the ''Cyrus'' class, but HMS ''Levant'' was captured by the American frigate USS ''Constitution''〔Gardiner, p. 87〕
With the re-organisation of the rating system which took place in the Royal Navy effective from 1 January 1817, the ''Cyrus'' class flush-decked ships were re-classified as 20-gun sloops.
