The concept for this vessel was developed in response to the Navy’s changing needs and the high operational costs of previous Seawolf-class units. USS Virginia was laid down in 1999, launched in 2003, and entered service in 2004, during the Cold War and into modern times. Submarines of this class are actively used by the US Navy, participating in patrol, reconnaissance, and special forces support operations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eModel scale: 1\/350\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eCountry of use: United States of America (USA)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eHistorical period: from the end of the Cold War to the present day (since 2004)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eMaterial: High-quality plastic\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eExtras: 16 photo-etched parts, including railings and nameplate.
