The Korean turtle ship was made famous by Admiral Yi Sun-Shin during the Imjin Wars aka Hideyoshi's Invasions. Some consider it histories first ironclad ship, but all agree it was the first ship in Asia that went from the traditional ram and board naval warfare to a focus on long-range combat using its 36-pound cannons.
