Newport News Shipbuilding & Drydock : ウィキペディア英語版
Newport News Shipbuilding

Newport News Shipbuilding (NNS), originally ''Newport News Shipbuilding and Drydock Company'' (NNS&DD), was the largest privately owned shipyard in the United States prior to being purchased by Northrop Grumman in 2001. Formerly known as ''Northrop Grumman Newport News'' (NGNN), and later ''Northrop Grumman Shipbuilding Newport News'' (NGSB-NN), the company is located in Newport News, Virginia, and often participates in projects with the Norfolk Naval Shipyard in Portsmouth, Virginia, also located adjacent to Hampton Roads. In March 2011 Newport News Shipbuilding, along with the shipbuilding sector of Northrop Grumman spun off to form a new company called Huntington Ingalls Industries.
The shipyard is a major employer (largest industrial employer in the state of Virginia) not only for the lower Virginia Peninsula, but also portions of Hampton Roads south of the James River and the harbor, portions of the Middle Peninsula region, and even some northeastern counties of North Carolina.
As of December 2014, the shipyard was building the aircraft carriers (CVN 78) 〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.thefordclass.com/ )〕 and the USS ''John F. Kennedy'' (CVN 79).〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://nns.huntingtoningalls.com/products/carriers/ford/cvn79 )
==History==

Industrialist Collis P. Huntington (1821–1900) provided crucial funding to complete the Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad (C&O) from Richmond, Virginia to the Ohio River in the early 1870s. Although originally built for general commerce, this C&O rail link to the midwest was soon also being used to transport bituminous coal from the previously isolated coalfields, adjacent to the New River and the Kanawha River in West Virginia. In 1881, the Peninsula Extension of the C&O was built from Richmond down the Virginia Peninsula to reach a new coal pier on Hampton Roads in Warwick County near the small unincorporated community of Newport News Point. However, building the railroad and coal pier was only the first part of Huntington's dreams for Newport News.
