USS SCOTT DDG-995
USS Scott (DDG-995)
was a Kidd-class destroyer of the United States
Navy. She was named for Rear Admiral Norman
Scott, who was killed during a surface action at the
First Naval Battle of Guadalcanal (sometimes
referred to as the Battle of Friday the 13th) aboard
USS Atlanta, winning a posthumous Medal of Honor for
his actions.
Commissioned in 1981, USS
Scott was equipped with heavy-duty air conditioning
and were also well suited to filtering sand and the
results from NBC warfare.
USS Scott completed a major
re-fit in Philadelphia in 1988. The focus was to
upgrade its radar and fire control tracking system
as well to support AEGIS equipped vessels.
She was decommissioned from the U.S. Navy on
December 10, 1998.
