HMS Brev Drageren (1807) : ウィキペディア英語版 | HMS Brev Drageren (1807) HMS ''Brev Drageren'' (also ''Brevdrageren'') was the Danish ''let brigger'' (light brig) ''Brevdrageren'', which was one of the many vessels the Danes surrendered to the British after the Battle of Copenhagen in 1807. She was involved in two notable actions while in British service before she was sold in 1825. ==Danish origins==
''Brevdrageren'' was built at Nyholm Dockyard to a design by F.C.H. Hohlenberg and launched in 1801. She was the name-ship of a two-vessel class,〔 and both she and her sister ''Fama'' had distinctive pinched or "pink" sterns, that is, sterns that were rounded rather than the more normal square stern.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Danish Military History website (British Design Plans of captured Danish Warships) )〕 Another vessel, ''Fehmern'', was built similarly to ''Brevdrageren'' and her sister, but was slightly heavier.〔 These vessels were much smaller than the heavy brigs designed for combat and the Danes used them as despatch vessels; ''Brevdrageren'' in Danish means "Despatch" or "Letter Carrier".〔 Her official Danish armament was eight 4-pounder guns and four 12-pounder carronades. Alternatively, she may have carried two 6-pounder guns, and sixteen 12-pounder carronades,〔 since accounts differ.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Danish Military History website (British Warship Losses in Danish-Norwegian Waters) - ''Fama'', sister-ship to ''Brev Drageren'' )〕
