USS Erie

The Erie is an American tier 1 gunboat in Naval 1945.

History
A multipurpose sloop built to meet Article VIII(b) of the Washington Naval Treaty, the Erie gunboats were designed for a multitude of support roles, from convoy and carrier escorts, to support of amphibious landings and potentially merchant raiders. Erie would be sunk by a German U-boat, while Charleston would go on to support an assault on an Aleutian island.
