🗣📣#NAVSEANews Alert! The “War Canoe” is back on the field! Pearl Harbor Naval Shipyard and Intermediate Maintenance Facility has delivered the Virginia-class fast-attack submarine, USS Hawai’i (SSN 776), back to the fleet! Since the start of her maintenance period in 2021, approximately 19,000 individual jobs were completed to upgrade and keep Hawai’i fit for service. From stern to bow, the submarine received a thorough modernization, all due to the team’s ability to work smoothly through each phase. “In executing sea trials and closing our depot modernization, USS Hawai’i Sailors and teammates from Pearl Harbor Naval Shipyard met every challenge head-on, bringing the War Canoe back to the fleet ready to fight,” said Cmdr. Daniel Jones, USS Hawai’i commanding officer.
