USS Sarah Bruen (1862) was a wooden schooner acquired by the United States Navy during the beginning of the American Civil War. After being installed with a large (13”) mortar, Sarah Bruen was used by the Union Navy, in its blockade of Confederate States of America ports and waterways, as a gunship whose main task was to bombard elevated targets which could not be reached by standard cannon or rifled guns.
