Named after Commodore Matthew Perry, this ship has a rich history and has played a significant role in various missions and operations around the world. The USS Perry is an Oliver Hazard Perry-class guided-missile frigate that was commissioned in 1977. It was built by Bath Iron Works in Maine and was one of the first ships to be equipped with the Aegis combat system, making it a highly advanced and capable ship.
