		SAILFISH Sailfish: A large gamefish inhabiting tropical seas, related to the swordfish, but possessing scales and a large sail-like dorsal fin.
		On 3 February 1961, SAILFISH was reclassified SS-572, and assumed the duties of an attack submarine.
		SAILFISH departed New London on 14 July; transited the Panama Canal; and, after a brief visit to Acapulco, Mexico, proceeded to Hawaii.

		USS Sailfish (SSR/SS/AGSS-572), the lead ship of her class of submarine, was the second ship of the United States Navy to be named for the sailfish, a large gamefish inhabiting tropical seas, related to the swordfish, but possessing scales and a large sail-like dorsal fin.
		Sailfish was laid down on 8 December 1953 by the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard of Portsmouth, New Hampshire.
		Sailfish resumed coastal operations out of New London in July, participating in fleet and NATO exercises, providing qualification training for prospective submarine officers and crews, and sharpening her own battle readiness.

	USS Sailfish - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Two submarines of the United States Navy have been named USS Sailfish, for the sailfish, a large gamefish inhabiting tropical seas, related to the swordfish, but possessing a large sail-like dorsal fin.
		The first Sailfish (SS-192), a Sargo-class submarine, was launched as Squalus, but sank during her trials.
		The second Sailfish (SS/SSR-572), the lead ship of her class, was the first submarine built expressly for radar picket service, and served though most of the Cold War.

		Her keel was laid down on 8 December 1953 by the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard of Portsmouth, New Hampshire.

	Cold War Curiosities. U.S. Radar Picket Submarines. (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		The two new SSRs were both commissioned in mid-1956, giving a total of 12 radar pickets, but since the earliest of the MIGRAINE boats were reaching the end of their service lives, that total would soon drop.
		Although the SSRs became key participants in fleet air defense as early-warning pickets and CAP controllers 50 to 100 nautical miles in front of typical Cold War carrier battlegroups, their overall effectiveness was frequently hampered by their relatively modest surface speeds, particularly when task-group course changes required rapid repositioning.
		Like Sailfish and Salmon, she was optimized for high surface speed - with a knife-like bow and ample reserve buoyancy - and reportedly, she exceeded 30 knots on her trials.

	SSR/SS572 History
		She and sister ship, SALMON (SSR-573), were also the largest conventionally powered submarines in the United States Navy and, to the present, still hold that distinction.
		[SAILFISH was stricken from the US Navy Register on 30 September 1978 and was to be disposed of by the Security Assistance Program for cash sale.
		As of November 1998, former SAILFISH was berthed at the Naval Inactive Ship Maintenance Facility at Bremerton, Washington.

	SS-572 Sailfish
		One Sailfish (SS-572) class diesel submarine was authorized in FY1951 and another -- Salmon (SS-573) in FY1952.
		Because it was assumed that they would spend most of their time on the surface, Sailfish and Salmon were given substantial reserve buoyancy and hull forms optimized for surface performance.
		Eventually, seven SSRs (Requin, Tigrone, Burrfish, Pompon, Ray, Redfin, and Sailfish) were assigned to the Atlantic Fleet and operated nominally in the Caribbean and North Atlantic, with regular participation in NATO exercises and periodic deployments to the Mediterranean as part of the U.S. 6th Fleet.

		Several fleet boats of the Gato, Balao and Tench classes were modified to SSR status after World War II under Project Migraine, receiving a collapsible air-search radar in a housing aft of the sail.
		Notably, Sailfish was supposed to go to the Iranian Navy, but the transfer was canceled after the Shah's fall in 1979.
		The other surviving SSR is USS Requin, which is now a memorial on the Ohio River in Pittsburgh of all places.
