Portsmouth, Va. (Aug. 25, 2004) - The nation's newest and most advanced
nuclear-powered attack submarine PCU Virginia (SSN 774) passes the
skyline of Portsmouth, Va., on its the way to Norfolk Naval Shipyard
upon completion of Bravo sea trials. Virginia is the NavyÕs only
major combatant ready to join the fleet that was designed with the
post-Cold War security environment in mind and embodies the war
fighting and operational capabilities required to dominate the
littorals while maintaining undersea dominance in the open ocean. U.S.
