USS Spitfire (1814) : ウィキペディア英語版 | USS Spitfire (1814)
USS ''Spitfire'' (1814) was a heavily armed schooner in the United States Navy. She was built for service in the War of 1812, but did not see service until the Barbary Wars when she was sent with the American fleet to the Mediterranean to force an end to piracy of American ships. == Purchased for the War of 1812 ==
The third ship to be so named by the U.S. Navy, ''Spitfire'' was purchased at Baltimore, Maryland, between October and December 1814 for service in a squadron commanded by Commodore David Porter which was to operate out of southern American ports against British shipping in the West Indies. However, the Treaty of Ghent ended the second American war with the United Kingdom (UK) before Porter could get the squadron to sea.
