Action of 4 September 1782 The Action of 4 September 1782 was a small naval engagement which was fought off the Île de Batz between a French naval frigate " Hebe " and a Royal Naval frigate HMS " Rainbow " . This battle was notable as the first proper use of a carronade and so effective was this weapon that the French commander promptly surrendered just after the first broadside . Action . On 4 September the 44 gun ship HMS " Rainbow " under Captain Henry Trollope armed entirely with carronades was off the French coast near the Île de Batz when a frigate was sighted . Having then chased the vessel it turned to be a French frigate " Hebe " . " Hebe " of 1 , 063 tons was a new ship of the class of the same name which consisted of 38 guns , twenty six of which were 18 - pounder long gun s commanded by the Chevalier de Vigny ( father of Alfred de Vigny ) and had on board 360 men . " Hebe " had left Saint - Malo on 3 September and was heading to Brest escorting a small convoy . At 7 am , having arrived within gun shot of the French ship , the " Rainbow " commenced firing 32 - pounder chase gun s from the forecastle which were returned by the frigate . An hour and a half later the ships manoeuvred for position and Captain Trollope then having got alongside engaged " Hebe " firing a single broadside . The effect was devastating ; " Hebe " ' s wheel was shot away and one sixty eight pound shot had shot away her foremast as well as killing and wounding a number of the crew . De Vigny examined the fragments of the hollow carronade shot and concluded that if she was firing 32 - pounders as chase pieces she was actually a ship of the line in disguise . He fired one broadside , " pour l ' honneur de pavilion , ” ( the honour of the flag ) and struck his colours . The surrender of " Hebe " after slight resistance was not surprising given the unusual armament of the " Rainbow " is taken into consideration . Rainbow lost only one man killed and two slightly wounded . The French lost five killed , including the second captain , and several wounded out of a crew of 360 men . Consequences . A council of war was met at Morlaix whereby a new frigate which was lost with barely a fight , condemned Vigny to fifteen years in prison , the case of his rank and service was declared as unfit for service . The captured frigate was immediately integrated into the Royal Navy as HMS " Hebe " . After being renamed HMS " Blonde " in 1805 it was finally broken up in 1811 . More important for the Navy , it would serve as a model for a new series of British frigates , the Leda class , the first of which was launched in 1800 . The new class would include HMS " Hebe " , HMS " Surprise " , HMS " Trincomalee " and HMS " Unicorn " .
