USS Nashville (LPD-13), an Austin-class amphibious transport dock, was the third ship of the United States Navy to be named for the capital city of Tennessee. Her keel was laid down on 14 March 1966 by the Lockheed Shipbuilding and Construction Company of Seattle, Washington. She was launched on 7 October 1967 sponsored by Mrs. Roy L. Johnson, and commissioned at Puget Sound Naval Shipyard, Bremerton, Washington, on 14 February 1970. According to an Indian news source, the Indian Navy may bid to acquire the Nashville, but as of August 2007, India had not decided to move forward with the deal. The Nashville is of the same class as the USS Trenton, which was previously sold to India and is now the INS Jalashwa.
