High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! USS Norfolk (SSN-714), a Los Angeles-class attack submarine, was the third ship of the United States Navy to be named for Norfolk, Virginia. The contract to build her was awarded to Newport News Shipbuilding and Dry Dock Company in Newport News, Virginia on 20 February 1976 and her keel was laid down on 1 August 1979. She was launched on 31 October 1981 sponsored by Mrs. Caspar Weinberger, and commissioned on 21 May 1983, with Commander Kenneth R. Karr in command (Commander Karr was promoted to the Pentagon later that year and retired from the NPEB as a Captain in 1988).

The ship also made an active deployment during one of the final spurts of activity from the declining Soviet navy. On July 23, 1988 the USS Norfolk fired the first ADCAP torpedo, the Uss Norfolk fired the first ADCAP torpedo, sinking the USS Jonas Ingram (DD-938).
