Commission Destroyer USS Scott

Third Ship In A New Class

USS Scott, the third ship of the four guided missile destroyers Ingalls Shipbuilding is building for the Navy.

The third ship in a new class of U.S. Navy guided missile destroyers, the most formid- able surface ships of their size now joining the Navy, was commissioned recently at

Ingalls Shipbuilding Division of Litton In- dustries, Pascagoula, Miss.

An additional ship of the class, USS

Chandler (DDG 996), is nearing completion.

The first destroyer, the USS Kidd (DDG 993), was commissioned in June and is pres- ently assigned to the U.S. Atlantic Fleet, based at Norfolk, Va. The USS Callaghan (DDG 994) was commissioned in August and is based in San Diego, Calif., with the Pacific

Fleet.

Based on the proven design of the Ingalls- built Spruance-class destroyers, which began joining the fleet in 1975, the Scott is a mul- timission ship, able to operate offensively or defend against simultaneous air, surface, and subsurface attacks.

The ship is 563 feet long, with a 55 foot beam, and displaces 9,200 tons. The crew consists of 28 officers and 320 enlisted men.

Ingalls is also building the U.S. Navy's new class of Ticonderoga guided missile cruisers. When deployed in early 1983, the first of these ships will carry the Aegis weapons system, the most sophisticated air defense system in the world. The first ship,

Ticonderoga (CG 47), was christened by

Mrs. Ronald Regan in May. t

SAN FRANCISCO'S NEW PIER 41 termi- nal at Fisherman's Wharf now houses head- quarters offices and operations center for the Red and White Fleet's Bay Cruise

Lines. The $4.5-million facility includes ad- ministrative and ticket offices, gift shop, snack bar, catering kitchen, plus new docks, public viewing decks, public rest rooms, and landscaped park areas. Constructed as part of the city's north waterfront revitalization plan, the terminal will be the embarkation point for the seven-vessel Red and White

Fleet's Alcatraz and Angel Island tours, and charter service for party and tour groups.

The Red and White Fleet serves more than two million passengers annually, including daily Tiburon ferry commute service to the city's Ferry Building terminal.

Nuclear Attack Submarine La Jolla

Commissioned At New London

Commissioning ceremonies for the high- speed nuclear-powered attack submarine USS

La Jolla (SSN 701) were held recently at the

Naval Submarine Base, New London, Conn.

The La Jolla — named after the city in

California — is the ninth of the Los Angeles- class attack submarines to have been built and launched by the Electric Boat Division of General Dynamics, Groton, Conn.

Officials from the namesake city and from the State of California attended the cere- mony. Mrs. Shirley Haughey Wilson, wife of Congressman Bob Wilson, was the spon- sor. Representative Clair W. Burgener was the main speaker.

The keel of the submarine was laid Octo- ber 16, 1976, and the vessel was launched on August 11, 1979. The 360-foot-long ship displaces 6,900 tons when submerged. She is capable of speeds in excess of 20 knots and carries a crew of 127 officers and men.
