CSS „Virginia II“ – the American ironclad

CSS "Virginia II" is a casemate ironclad, built at Richmond for the Confederate States of America. Named after the first Confederate armored ship, CSS "Virginia", which fought in the Hampton Raid and was later blown up by the Confederates during the retreat from Norfolk in May 1862. Throughout her career, the "Virginia II" fought in the James River, defending the Confederate capital from attack by federal naval forces. On April 3, 1865, when the Confederates left Richmond to avoid capture, the ship was destroyed by the crew.
