“USS Ingraham (FFG-61)”的意思、由来-开放百科全书

USS Ingraham (FFG-61), the last American {{sclass-|Oliver Hazard Perry|frigate|0}} guided missile frigate to be built, was the fourth ship of the United States Navy to be named for Captain Duncan Ingraham (1802–1891).

Built in Los Angeles, California

Prior to decommissioning, Ingraham was commanded by Commander Dan Straub. Ingraham{{'}}s former homeport is at NS Everett, Washington, and was assigned to Destroyer Squadron 9.^[2]^[3]

Service history

Operation Fiery Vigil

Thousands of Filipino looters magnified the tragedy when they climbed over the gates and ransacked abandoned homes. The mob overwhelmed military policemen by sheer numbers and determination. In many instances, the looters wiped out treasured mementoes of families.^[1]

January 2008 Iranian incident

Sailors on board guided missile destroyer {{USS|Hopper|DDG-70|2}} reported seeing IT2 Menelek Brown of the ships company at 0430 on 3 January 2008, but Menelek failed to muster at 0730 that morning, while the ship was carrying out maritime security operations in the Arabian Sea. Crewmembers unsuccessfully searched the destroyer for their shipmate, and Hopper sounded "man overboard." At 1505 the ship commenced a coordinated search of the surrounding area with guided missile cruiser {{USS|Port Royal|CG-73|2}} and Ingraham. A Lockheed P-3C Orion assisted the ships as they conducted an "expanding square" search from the position {{coord|18|26|21|N| 63|53|35|E}}, but they ended their search the following day without finding Brown.^[1]

On 6 January 2008, Hopper, Port Royal, and Ingraham were entering the Persian Gulf through the Strait of Hormuz when five Iranian motor boats approached them at high speed and in a reportedly threatening manner. The American ships had been in the Arabian Sea searching for a sailor who had been missing for one day. The U.S. Navy reported that the Iranian boats made "threatening" moves toward the U.S. vessels, coming as close as {{convert|200|yd|m}}. The U.S. Navy ships received a radio transmission saying, "I am coming to you. You will explode after few minutes." While the American ships prepared to open fire, the Iranians abruptly turned away, the U.S. Navy officials said. Before leaving, the Iranians dropped white boxes into the water in front of the American ships. The American ships did not investigate the boxes. Officials from the two countries differed on their assessments of the severity of the incident. The Iranians claimed that they were conducting normal maneuvers, whereas American officials claimed that an imminent danger to American naval vessels existed.^[4]

September 2009 Samoa earthquake and tsunami

On 29 September 2009, Ingraham was en route to American Samoa and was the first U.S. military asset to arrive and assist in the recovery efforts following the earthquake and tsunami.^[5]^[6]

Final deployment

Ingraham was responsible for the capture of nine drug smuggling vessels, apprehension of 29 suspects, and 11,937 kg of cocaine valued at $561M. Additionally, while deployed, Ingraham participated in UNITAS, SIFOREX, & played a critical role in United States Fourth Fleet Theater Security Cooperation activities.

Combating Transnational Organized Crime & Operation Martillo

From March to October 2014, Ingraham conducted a Combating-Transnational Organized Crime deployment in support of Operation Martillo, during which Ingraham conducted 32 Right of Approach visits, 11 vessel boardings, 6 Airborne Use of Force actions, and 17 detainee transfers. The ship also conducted 278 flight operations encompassing 983 mishap-free flight hours and a 98 percent sortie completion rate. Ingraham{{'}}s effective coordination and employment of maritime, aerial, and land-based assets in support of Combating Transnational Organized Crime operations and Operation Martillo resulted in the interdiction or disruption of illegal contraband including more than 11,937 kg of cocaine, worth more than $560 million, detention of 29 suspects, and the successful capture of a self-propelled semi-submersible vessel (SPSS)^[7] with its crew and 2,383 kg of narcotics, the first such vessel ever captured in the Eastern Pacific.

UNITAS & SIFOREX

In September Ingraham was extended in theater as the only U.S. Navy warship to participate in the 55th evolution of Exercise UNITAS^[8] in Peru, significantly enhancing relationships with 15 partner nations. She also participated in the Silent Forces Exercise working with partner nations on anti-submarine warfare and detection training in a multinational environment. Ingraham returned from her 7½ month deployment on 30 October 2014.^[9]

Decommissioning

After returning from her final deployment in October 2014, Ingraham was ceremonially decommissioned on 12 November 2014 at Naval Station Everett. Ingraham was officially decommissioned on 30 January 2015 at NS Everett, and is berthed at the Naval Sea Systems Command (NavSea) Inactive Ships On-site Maintenance Office at Naval Shipyard Bremerton, pending her disposal.^[1] As of September 2016, the ship was in reserve at Bremerton and was slated to be disposed of as a target.^[10]
