Earth Pre-Federation Database - USS Black Hawk


History:
The USS Black Hawk was an American gunboat that was in service with the United States Navy in the mid-19th century. The Black Hawk participated in several river campaigns in the American Civil War, including the Battle of Fort Hindman, where the ship served as the flagship for the Mississippi Squadron during its attack against the Confederate Army's Fort Hindman.
A print depicting this ship participating in the battle was stored in the USS Enterprise's library computer in 2254, and was among the materials viewed by the Talosians when they scanned the Enterprise computer.
