Naming


On 1 December 2012, during the presentation of a pre-recorded speech at the inactivation ceremony for USS Enterprise (CVN-65), then-Secretary of the Navy Ray Mabus announced that CVN-80 would be named Enterprise.[9] She will be the ninth ship and the third aircraft carrier in the history of the United States Navy to bear the name.[7] CVN-80 will also be the first American supercarrier not to be named in honor of a person since America was commissioned in 1966. In December 2016, Mabus chose Olympic gold medalists Katie Ledecky and Simone Biles to sponsor the ship.[10]

CVN-80 is being built by Huntington Ingalls Industries' Newport News Shipbuilding in Newport News, Virginia. CVN-80 is the first aircraft carrier completely designed and built through digital platforms.[11] The first cut of steel ceremony, marking the beginning of fabrication of the ship's components, was held on 21 August 2017,[12] with ship's sponsors Katie Ledecky and Simone Biles present.[13] Construction began in advance of the purchase contract and construction award, in early 2018.[14] Steel from CVN-65 will be recycled and used in the construction of CVN-80.[15][4] As of August 2022, approximately 20,000 pounds of steel, from CVN-65, has been salvaged and recycled for inclusion into CVN-80,[16] with another 15,000 pounds still to be processed, for a total of 35,000 pounds.[11] Enterprise will also incorporate four portholes taken from CV-6, her World War II predecessor.[17] Enterprise will replace USS Dwight D. Eisenhower and is scheduled to be launched in November 2025,[18] with a planned delivery date of March 2028.[19]

The ship's keel was laid, with no ceremony, on 5 April 2022, three weeks ahead of schedule, making the ship about 13% complete.[1] The shipbuilder held an official keel-laying ceremony on 27 August of the same year.[16][2]
