1976 |

Fifth and last generation of nuclear powered cruisers, the class was early retired as a result of the cold war end but mainly as a money-saving measure due they were less cost-efficient than conventionally-powered warships. During their 1980s refit they replaced their LAMPS helicopters by Tomahawk cruise missiles. CGN-42 was canceled before being named or laid down |
