CSS MANASSAS ram
one tiny cannon in the bow...this was a stealthy Ram meant to rip over the hull of any sailing ship..... posed a problem for the Union Navy but still not strong enough to halt the fleet..... the rifled cannons massed against the masonary forts chewed up the defenses of New Orleans and then wrecked the stationary CSS ironclad and its tiny consorts of cotton clads....
