USS Cushing

**SOLD**

43"L x 22"H x 4"W

USS Cushing, a 116-ton torpedo boat, was built in Bristol, Rhode Island. When commissioned in April 1890, she was the Navy's only modern torpedo boat, and spent most of her career assisting in torpedo development efforts. In 1898, Cushing operated out of Key West and off Cuba in support of Spanish-American War naval efforts. She was generally in reserve status after that conflict and was finally expended as a target in September 1920.
