The nation's newest and most advanced attack submarine Seawolf (SSN 21) puts to sea in the Narragansett Bay operating area for her first at-sea trial operations on July 3, 1996. Sea trials include various tests of the Seawolf propulsion systems and the first underway submergence of the submarine.

Seawolf is scheduled to be delivered to the Navy and commissioned this fall, 1996. U.S. Navy photo courtesy of General Dynamics. Wikipedia
