USS Prime (MSO-466) was an Agile-class minesweeper of the United States Navy, commissioned in 1954. Built to detect and clear naval mines, she served primarily in the Pacific Fleet, participating in numerous training exercises and fleet operations during the Cold War. USS Prime was actively involved in supporting U.S. operations in the Western Pacific, including deployments to the waters off Vietnam during the Vietnam War. She was decommissioned in 1971 and later struck from the Naval Vessel Register, marking the end of her dedicated service to maritime security.
