WATCH: History on Display

Written on 01/27/2022


For nearly 84 years, Ingalls Shipbuilding has built and delivered ships to our U.S. Navy and U.S. Coast Guard customers. Our customers give each ship a name to identify it in the fleet. While we don’t decide the names, we recognize their significance. The names given to the ships we build are the first pages in that ship’s story. The name gives each ship a legacy to carry on long after it leaves the berths at Ingalls Shipbuilding. This year, we will share with you some of the remarkable namesakes for the ships we are currently building. Throughout the year, watch for banners in the shipyard and articles on the app and in our other publications.
