Derived from the Spruance class, USS Scott (DDG-995) was the third ship in a class of destroyers operated by the U.S. Navy. Kidd class vessels were designed for air defense in hot weather.
Originally named Nader, Scott was originally ordered by the Shah of Iran, but was undelivered when the 1979Iranian Revolution occurred. Subsequent to this, the U.S. Navy elected to commission them for service in the Persian Gulf and Mediterranean Sea, as they were equipped with heavy-duty air conditioning and were also well suited to filtering sand and the results from NBC warfare.
Scott was eventually decommissioned from the U.S. Navy and is in the process of being transferred to the Republic of China. In that service, the vessel will be named Tong Teh (DDG-1803).
