Action of 9 August 1780
Naval battle of the American Revolutionary War
The action of 9 August 1780 was a naval engagement during the American Revolutionary War and a part of the Anglo-French War (1778–1783) in which a Spanish fleet and French fleet, led by Admiral Luis de Córdova y Córdova, encountered a large British convoy. The Franco-Spanish force captured almost all the merchant vessels in the convoy, which dealt a severe blow to the commerce of Great Britain.
