The carronade was a short smoothbore, cast iron cannon,developed for the Royal Navy by the Carron Company, anironworks in Falkirk, Scotland, UK. Also known as a smasher, it was used from the 1770s to the 1850s. Its main function was to serve as a powerful, short-range anti-ship and anti-crew weapon. While considered very successful early on, carronadeseventually disappeared as long-range naval artillery led to fewerclose-up engagements.
