HMS Diana

Diana was a steam paddle steamer built in 1823 as a merchant vessel that in 1824 the Bengal Government purchased. During the First Anglo-Burmese War she became the first steam-powered warship of the Honourable East India Company to see action. She was transferred to the Burmese Government in 1826, and back to the company for use by Singapore in 1837.
