From Battleship Classics to High-Tech Terrors, These Warships Bring the Heat!

USS Delaware SSN-791

The USS Delaware (SSN-791) is a groundbreaking vessel—it’s the first U.S. ship ever to be commissioned underwater! This Virginia-class attack submarine was launched on December 14, 2018, and had its commissioning ceremony underwater on April 4, 2020, due to pandemic restrictions.

The Delaware measures 377 feet in length, 33 feet in width, and displaces 7,800 tons. It’s powered by nuclear energy and features a single semi-pump jet propulsor that gives it the stealth and speed needed for modern missions. This history-making sub is more than just high-tech; it’s a testament to the Navy’s adaptability and innovation, even in the face of challenging times.
