HMS Hussar was a sixth-rate frigate of the Royal Navy, built in England in 1761–63. She was a 28-gun ship of the Mermaid class, designed by Sir Thomas Slade. She was wrecked at New York in 1780. In early 2013, a cannon from Hussar was discovered stored in a building in New York's Central Park, still loaded with gunpowder and shot.
