Historical Note: The Brazilian ironclad Tamandaré was an armored gunboat built for the Brazilian Navy in the arsenal of navy of the court in Rio de Janeiro (snake island), launched waters 26 of June of 1865 and incorporated the armada in the same year. Was named to honor Admiral Tamandaré. The Tamandaré was designed to meet the need of the Brazilian Navy for a small, simple, shallow-draft armored ship capable of withstanding heavy fire. She was one of three armored gunboats, together with Barroso and Rio de Janeiro, built to the same general plan, although each ship varied significantly in size and armament. The ship is best characterized as a central battery. For sea passages the ship's freeboard could be increased to 1.7 meters (5 ft 7 in) by use of removable bulwarks 1.1 meters (3 ft 7 in) high. On riverine operations, the bulwarks, and the ship's masts, were usually removed.

Built to participate in the Paraguayan War 1864 - 1870 (War of the Triple Alliance). She bombarded the Paraguayan fortifications blocking access up the Paraná and Paraguay Rivers as well as bombarding Paraguayan positions in support of the Brazilian Army. The ship participated in the Passage of Humaitá in February 1868 and was badly damaged. After Tamandaré was repaired she provided fire support for the army for the rest of the war, aside from bombarding Paraguyan capital of Asunción once. The ship was assigned to the Mato Grosso Flotilla after the war. Tamandaré was decommissioned in 1879 and scrapped afterwards.
