Some photos decommissioned warships to base maintenance reserve ships (NISMF) in Philadelphia. It is situated on the territory of the former naval shipyard. Was there the other day and decided to see what has changed in the 3 years since my last visit there. Changed, it must be said, not a lot. But something new is there.
NISMF - a division of the United States Navy, which is engaged in decommissioning and storage of naval vessels to determine their future destiny. And the options they have not so much: retired from the Navy ship can get into the reserve (the majority there and misses) can turn into a ship-museum (there needs action team and a lot of money) may be transferred / sold to another state (usually Allied USA), can become a marine reef (this is remove all the excess and beautifully flood in some Gulf), and maybe the saddest thing be brought to the needle (it cut into scrap metal). On the basis of the court there from all categories. Someone dragged recently, and someone rust at the quay wall for more than 10 years. In any case, it is a unique place where you can completely free to explore and photograph all standing there court.
In the photo trinity missile cruisers "Ticonderoga". Left USS Thomas S. Gates (CG-51). In the center of the lead ship of a series of USS Ticonderoga (CG-47) - the world's first guided missile cruiser with a multifunctional combat information and control system "Aegis". Launched in 1981. Removed from the fleet in 2004.
Right on the famous incident in the Black Sea USS Yorktown (CG-48). In 1988, he was playing with his muscles entered the territorial waters of the USSR, but received an unexpected resistance from the Soviet patrol ship "selfless" (he was to push his body far superior size American) and was forced to retire. Read about this episode of the Cold War can be here and here.
"Thomas S. Gates" and "Yorktown" will be scrapped, and "Ticonderoga" are going to make a museum. True collected for 10 years as.
View of the waters of the Naval Shipyard.
Now there are 24 vessels. This is more than a fleet of many countries.
The former oceanographic vessel catamaran USNS Hayes (T-AGOR-16). Launched in 1971. In 1992, it altered in the sonar ship is engaged in the study of noise from submarines.
Now his status is not clear. According to some data it expects utilization, on the other is on conservation.
Amphibious transport dock like "Austin" USS Nashville (LPD-13). Launched in 1967. In 2009, removed from the fleet, and is now preserved in the reserve.
His brother USS Shreveport (LPD-12) waits for recycling.
Amphibious cargo ships such as "Charleston" USS El Paso (LKA-117), USS Charleston (LKA-113) and USS Mobile (LKA-115).
Court decommissioned, mothballed and are on standby.
Tank landing ship of "Newport" USS Boulder (LST-1190). Tank landing ships of the type "Newport" designed for transporting assault non-floating (tracked and wheeled) technique and unloading them on unequipped coast without the use of landing craft. A distinctive feature of these ships - the presence of a retractable bow ramp (34.1 m), which provides unloading military equipment weighing up to 75 tons and cargo directly from the upper deck on the shore. Launched in 1970. Removed from the fleet in 1994, awaiting disposal.
Ocean tug USNS Mohawk (T-ATF-170). Launched in 1980 and is now preserved in the reserve. Behind him are two frigates of "Oliver Hazard Perry."
Total blocked on the basis of 9 units. Part conserved and are on standby, ready to be part of the transfer / sale, and several frigates awaiting disposal. Some of them are painted the board room, so they are quite difficult to identify.
Gunboat type "Asheville" USS Canon (PG-90). Launched in 1967 decommissioned in 1977 for 20 years to expect that it will be picked up and turned into a museum.
Destroyers USS Forrest Sherman (DD-931) and USS Charles F. Adams (DDG-2). Both the head of the court of its type. Both had become museums. And with the "Charles F. Adams" everything was determined from the outset, but in "Forrest Sherman" things did not go so smoothly.
After his withdrawal from the Navy, he spent several years in reserve, and then was sold for scrap metal company in Massachusetts. But he bought the company soon went bankrupt and the ship miraculously escaped disposal. After that, the government has decided to keep it and made a list of ships ready for conversion into a museum ship. It remains only to find someone who will take the destroyer and will finance the project. Having stood in Philadelphia for 11 years, "Forrest Sherman", unfortunately, did not our new owners and was once again moved into the category of scrap metal. In 2011, he was sent to the "looting" the volunteers are engaged in restoration and maintenance of other museum ships. With it removed all the valuable and now he expects utilization.
This passenger ferry actually USNS Puerto Rico (HST-2).
Behind him painted in a strange way the same type USNS Guam (HST-1). This civilian version of the airborne transport of high-speed vessels kaktamaranov project "Spearhed." They are designed for the transportation of equipment and personnel to a distance of 1,200 nautical miles. The maximum speed of 43 knots (80 km / h).
Ferries were built in 2007 for the company's Hawaii Superferry, which carries passengers and cars between the islands of the archipelago. In 2009 by the decision of the court the company's activities were suspended. In 2011, the ferries bought government agency and transferred the United States Navy.
Well, the highlight of the program, which barely got into the frame.
This aircraft carrier USS John F. Kennedy (CV-67), nicknamed "Big John" and "Building 67." Launched in 1967, decommissioned in 2007, is the last nuclear aircraft carrier is not built for the United States Navy.
Previously, there were two giants. Next to the "John F. Kennedy" was USS Forrestal (CV-59). I even have their photos together. But in 2013, after waiting for its museum of the future 10 years, and not waiting, "Forrestal" was sold for 1 cent and towed to Texas for recycling. Now in Philadelphia was only "Big John".
Some more photos I've got on Flickr and Badikova.
