GROTON, Conn., Dec. 1, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- General Dynamics Electric Boat will christen Colorado (SSN-788), the U.S. Navy's newest and most advanced nuclear attack submarine, at a ceremony at its shipyard on Saturday, Dec. 3, at 11 a.m. Electric Boat is a wholly owned subsidiary of General Dynamics (NYSE: GD).
Annie Mabus, daughter of Secretary of the Navy Ray Mabus, is the ship's sponsor. Secretary Mabus will be the event's principal speaker.
The submarine Colorado is the 15th ship of the Virginia Class.

Electric Boat and its partner, Newport News Shipbuilding, share construction of the submarines under a teaming agreement. A total of 28 Virginia-class submarines have been delivered, are under construction or under contract.
A "live" video and audio webcast of the Colorado christening will be accessible online at www.gdeb.com.
