A blockade runner is a ship designed to provide vital supplies to countries or areas blockaded by enemy forces during wartime. Notable users of blockade runners include the Confederate States of America and Nazi Germany. The term "blockade runner" has also been used by science fiction and fantasy writers for spaceships serving a similar purpose. Perhaps the best known example is the Corellian Corvette in Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope. (See also: Union blockade)
