USS Roosevelt (DDG-80) is an Arleigh Burke-class destroyer in service with the United States Navy.

USS Roosevelt was the 13th ship of this class to be built at Ingalls Shipbuilding in Pascagoula, Mississippi.

The Arleigh Burke-class guided-missile destroyer USS Roosevelt arrived in Klaipėda, Lithuania, for a scheduled port visit, Jan. 26.

Roosevelt, forward-deployed to Naval Station Rota, Spain, is currently on its fourth Forward Deployed Naval Forces-Europe (FDNF-E) patrol.

While in Klaipeda, Sailors will work to refuel the ship and onload stores, while also experiencing the rich culture of Lithuania.

While in port, Roosevelt expects to host a Lithuanian Defense delegation for a luncheon and tour.

The ship’s leaders will also meet with the Mayor of Klaipėda and the Lithuanian Chief of Naval Operations.

Roosevelt’s visit to Klaipėda reaffirms the U.S. Navy’s commitment to NATO partners by ensuring maritime security in the region.
