USS WASP

U.S. Navy

The USS Wasp is the name given to multiple ships in United States Navy history, with the most recent being LHD-1, an amphibious assault ship commissioned in 1989. The lineage of ships bearing the name "Wasp" dates back to the American Revolution, with the original USS Wasp (1775) serving valiantly before being captured by the British. Subsequent vessels, including aircraft carriers and amphibious ships, have participated in major conflicts such as World War II, where CV-7 was lost during the Guadalcanal campaign. Today, USS Wasp (LHD-1) continues to project power, support Marine Corps operations, and participate in humanitarian missions worldwide.
