USS Oklahoma City (CLG-5) was originally commissioned as a Cleveland-class light cruiser (CL-91) in 1945, serving briefly at the end of World War II. In the late 1950s, she was converted into a guided missile cruiser and re-designated CLG-5, equipped with the Talos missile system to enhance her air defense capabilities. As a flagship in the U.S. Seventh Fleet during the Vietnam War, Oklahoma City provided naval gunfire support, command and control, and missile operations. She served until 1979, after which she was decommissioned, marking an extensive career that spanned traditional naval gunfire roles to advanced missile warfare.
