blockade runner vessels

Blockade runner vessels are ships used during wartime to evade enemy blockades and deliver supplies or personnel. They are typically fast, agile, and designed to escape quickly from enemy patrols. Their purpose is to bypass blockades that aim to cut off access to ports or supply routes, allowing critical resources or communication to reach isolated areas. Historically, these vessels played significant roles during conflicts like the American Civil War and World War I, providing strategic advantages by secretly transporting goods and information through enemy blockades.
