HDMS Brev Drageren (1801)

HDMS Brev Drageren was a Danish naval transport ship launched in 1801. It served primarily as a dispatch vessel, carrying mail and personnel between Danish ports and overseas territories. The Brev Drageren (meaning "Letter Carrier" in Danish) participated in various naval operations during the Napoleonic Wars, including service during the English Wars. Its specific duties included reconnaissance, coastal patrol, and communication support for larger warships. Details of its armament and ultimate fate are not widely documented, but it is assumed to have been a relatively small and lightly armed vessel intended for speed and maneuverability rather than heavy combat. The ship likely remained in service with the Danish navy until being decommissioned and potentially sold or broken up.
