The USS Arizona was a United States Navy Balao-class submarine that was commissioned in 1943 during World War II. The submarine was named after the USS Arizona battleship, which was sunk during the attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941.
During its service in World War II, the USS Arizona conducted numerous patrols in the Pacific Ocean, sinking several enemy vessels. The submarine was credited with sinking a total of 11 Japanese ships, including a destroyer and two cargo ships.
The USS Arizona also played a significant role in the Battle of the Philippine Sea in June 1944, where it provided support for American aircraft carriers during the decisive victory over the Japanese Navy.
After the war, the USS Arizona was decommissioned in 1945 and ultimately scrapped in 1959. The submarine received several battle stars for its service during World War II and is remembered as a key part of the U.S. Navy’s submarine fleet during the conflict.
