HMS Spartan (1806)
HMS ''Spartan'' was a Royal Navy 38-gun fifth-rate frigate, launched at Rochester in 1806. During the Napoleonic Wars she was active in the Adriatic and in the Ionian Islands. She then moved to the American coast during the War of 1812, where she captured a number of small vessels, including a US Revenue Cutter and a privateer, the ''Dart''. She then returned to the Mediterranean, where she remained for a few years. She went on to serve off the American coast again, and in the Caribbean, before being broken up in 1822.
==Napoleonic Wars==
''Spartan''s first captain was George Airie, but he was soon replaced by Captain Jahleel Brenton, who took ''Spartan'' to the Adriatic Sea for service in the Adriatic campaign. In May 1807, ''Spartan'' engaged ''Annibal'', two frigates (''Pomone'' and ''Incorruptible''), and the corvette ''Victorieuse'' off Cabrera in the Mediterranean.
''Spartan'' was very active in the region, attacking numerous French coastal convoys, towns and small warships and in 1809 was employed in attacks on the Ionian Islands, landing troops on Zante and Cerigo in successful amphibious operations. ''Spartan'' was in action with and at Pesaro on 23 April, and at Cesenatico on 2 May.
In 1810, ''Spartan'' was operating off Naples and there fought and inconclusive engagement against a much larger Neapolitan squadron on 3 May, for which Brenton was highly rewarded.
