A historic milestone for Austal USA and the U.S. Navy!

We are proud to announce the official delivery of LCU 1710, the Navy’s first Landing Craft Utility (LCU) 1700-class vessel, and our first-ever steel ship delivered to the U.S. Navy!

Austal USA was honored to be part of the 2026 Alabama Career Technical Education (CTE) Summer Professional Development Conference!

We kicked things off with an industry tour of our advanced ship manufacturing facility, giving CTE educators a firsthand look at our shipbuilding operations and workforce development programs. Then, our very own Shernita Taylor and Brinkley Pierce took the stage on the Alabama Workforce Panel, sharing what it takes to launch a successful career at Austal!

The message was clear — bring the right attitude, work ethic, and willingness to learn, and we'll help build the rest!

We are passionate about partnering with Alabama's CTE educators to build strong pathways from the classroom to a rewarding career in maritime manufacturing and shipbuilding.

Austal USA Makes Mobile Shipbuilding History … 694 Feet of It.

From the massive floating dry docks built here during World War II to the 616-foot American Phoenix tanker launched in 2011, Mobile has a long, proud history of building big.

Austal USA didn’t just carry that legacy forward … we took it farther. With the successful launch of AFDM 15, the U.S. Navy’s first Auxiliary Floating Dry Dock Medium built in more than 40 years, our team set a new benchmark for Mobile shipbuilding.

At 694 feet long, 157 feet wide and approximately 12,000 tons, AFDM 15 is the largest vessel by overall dimensions known to have been launched from a Mobile-area shipyard into the Mobile River. It is also the largest launch Austal USA has executed in our 26-year history.

This milestone reflects the skill, precision and determination of our workforce, along with the strong partnership of the Navy and the maritime teams that helped make it possible.

Mobile always thinks and builds big. Austal USA is proud to carry that legacy forward.

Austal USA is honored to have the opportunity to advance the skills of these talented students through our internship program. This group of interns proudly represent the following colleges and universities: University of Virginia, Virginia Tech, Carnegie Mellon University.
