USS Urdaneta – occasionally misspelled Undaneta – was an iron-hulled gunboat in the United States Navy.
Urdaneta was built for the Spanish government at the Cavite Arsenal near Manila, Philippines, in 1882 and 1883 and was apparently captured by the United States Army during the Spanish–American War in 1898.
The gunboat conducted local patrols into the summer months to interdict the flow of munitions and arms to the opposition during the Philippine–American War.
Insurrectionists along the river soon opened a withering enfilading fire, killing the gunboat's commanding officer, Naval Cadet Welborn C. Wood, and some of his crew.
Urdaneta subsequently operated as guard vessel at Subic Bay and conducted surveys in connection with the impending visits of the commission investigating naval base sites in the Philippines.
