HII Delivers Virginia-Class Submarine New Jersey (SSN 796) to U.S. Navy
25 Aprile 2024 - 4:00PM
HII (NYSE: HII) announced today that its Newport News Shipbuilding
division has delivered Virginia-class fast-attack submarine New
Jersey (SSN 796) to the U.S. Navy.
New Jersey is the 11th Virginia-class submarine delivered by
NNS, and the 23rd built as part of the teaming agreement with
General Dynamics Electric Boat.
“It is a proud day for our entire team when we deliver a
high-quality submarine like New Jersey to the fleet,” said Jason
Ward, NNS vice president of Virginia-class submarine construction.
“The mission ahead for New Jersey and her crew is clear, and we
applaud our shipbuilders for delivering this critical capability to
the fleet, while maintaining our highest standards of safety and
quality.”
More than 10,000 shipbuilders from NNS and Electric Boat
participated in the construction of New Jersey, alongside thousands
of suppliers across the country, including more than 100 in New
Jersey who support submarine construction. It is the first
Virginia-class submarine designed and built with crew gender
integration.
New Jersey was christened in November 2021 at NNS by ship’s
sponsor Susan DiMarco, a New Jersey resident, retired dentist and
wife of former Secretary of Homeland Security Jeh Johnson. The
submarine is expected to be commissioned later this year.
