USS Mount Whitney (LCC-20) is the second ship of the Blue Ridge-class command ships and far more than just a vessel — it is a floating command center designed to direct the largest naval operations conducted by the United States and NATO. Named after the highest peak in the contiguous United States, Mount Whitney in California, the ship has become a symbol of America’s technological leadership and strategic presence at sea.

American warships will soon be equipped with a standard 4G connection.
