Ingalls shipbuilders successfully completed the final round of sea trials for Arleigh Burke-class guided missile destroyer Ted Stevens (DDG 128). The Ingalls Test and Trials team spent several days in port and at sea conducting a comprehensive series of acceptance test and evaluations, overseen by the Navy’s Board of Inspection and Survey (INSURV). These trials confirmed that the ship successfully demonstrated required mission capabilities, preparing it for delivery to the U.S. Navy in the coming weeks.
No matter the role, the work of an Ingalls shipbuilder is both complex and inspiring. In the latest episode of the Inside Ingalls podcast, we sit down with veteran Fatina Brave, director, Talent Acquisition & Workforce Development, to talk about the shared sense of mission that connects servicemembers and shipbuilders.

In honor of Veterans Day, Ingalls proudly recognizes the many military veterans who have continued their service to the nation by building the tools our military relies on. Your courage, commitment and sense of duty inspire us and serve as a reminder that every ship we build is more than steel. It is protection, purpose, and a promise to support our servicemembers.
Every tool, machine and piece of material in our shipyard is a critical part of building the U.S. Navy’s strongest warships. Protecting them isn’t just about preventing loss, it’s about protecting the mission and the warfighter who depends on our work.
