USS Safeguard ARS-50

USS Safeguard (ARS-50) is a Safeguard-class salvage ship commissioned by the United States Navy in 1985. Designed for rescue, salvage, and towing operations, Safeguard played a crucial role in supporting fleet readiness and maritime recovery missions. Throughout her service, she participated in numerous exercises and operations, including towing disabled vessels, recovering downed aircraft, and supporting humanitarian missions in the Pacific and Indian Oceans. Safeguard was decommissioned in 2006 and later transferred to the Mexican Navy, continuing her legacy of maritime support under a new flag.
