USS Invade (AM-254) was an Admirable-class minesweeper built for the United States Navy during World War II.

Following these operations and additional drills out of Norfolk, Virginia, the minecraft assumed duties there as towing ship for aircraft targets and as an experimental minesweeper.

She remained on this important duty through the end of the war and reported 21 September 1945 to the Mine Warfare School at Yorktown, Virginia, as a training ship.

Invade decommissioned 7 August 1946 and joined the Atlantic Reserve Fleet at Orange, Texas.

The former Invade was acquired by the Mexican Navy in August 1962 and renamed ARM DM-18.
