Connor at the helm of Aquila.

The Aquila was a Continental Navy vessel, captained by the Assassin Connor Kenway, during the American Revolutionary War. The vessel was used to sail across the Eastern Seaboard of North America and the Caribbean Sea.

Armaments

The Aquila's cannon projectiles included standard round shots, chain-shots to disable enemy ships' masts, grapeshot, shrapnel shells, and heated shots to start fires.

The ship was also armed with swivel guns that could be used to kill specific targets, such as another ship's captain or gunpowder reservoir.
