An ironclad was a steam-propelled warship in the early part of the second half of the 19th century, protected by iron or steel armour plates.
In the US Civil War, The Union Navy had multiple types of ironclads, including the Mississippi river ironclads, and a smaller number of lightly-armoured ships called tinclads. The Confederacy had only shore batteries and a single river ironclad (CSS Arkansas) to oppose them.
