USS Georgia (SSGN-729) is an Ohio-class submarine commissioned by the United States Navy in 1984. Originally constructed as a ballistic missile submarine (SSBN), she played a strategic role in the nation's nuclear deterrence during the Cold War. In 2004, USS Georgia underwent a major conversion to become a guided missile submarine (SSGN), enhancing her capabilities to launch Tomahawk cruise missiles and support special operations. Since her conversion, she has participated in numerous exercises and operations, demonstrating flexibility in both strike and clandestine missions worldwide.
