2019年10月28日 - 11:00PM
Huntington Ingalls Industries’ (NYSE:HII) Newport News Shipbuilding
division on Friday delivered the newest fast-attack submarine to
the U.S. Navy.
Delaware (SSN 791), which successfully completed
sea trials earlier this month, is the ninth Virginia-class
submarine to be delivered by Newport News and the 18th built as
part of the teaming agreement with General Dynamics Electric
Boat.
“Like the last two submarines we delivered to the
Navy, Delaware has received some of the highest quality scores
since the Virginia-class program began,” said Dave Bolcar, Newport
News’ vice president of submarine construction. “Our team of
shipbuilders continues to perform at a high level, and nothing
makes us prouder than delivering one of the most mission-ready
submarines to the fleet.”

The submarine is the second ship to be named for
the country’s first state, the first being the dreadnought
battleship USS Delaware (BB 28), which was delivered by Newport
News in 1910.
More than 10,000 shipbuilders from Newport News and
Electric Boat have participated in Delaware’s construction since
the work began in September 2013. The submarine was christened by
Jill Biden, the former Second Lady of the United States and the
ship’s sponsor, during a ceremony in October 2018.
The future USS Delaware (SSN 791) will be
commissioned next year.
