United States Delivers Another Cutter to Vietnam Coast Guard

Strengthening Maritime Security Cooperation

The United States has officially transferred its third high-endurance cutter to the Vietnam Coast Guard. This vessel, now known as CSB 8022, previously served as the USCGC Mellon.

This transfer signifies another pivotal moment in the growing defense and security partnership between the two nations, reflecting the United States' dedication to a strong, prosperous, independent, and resilient Vietnam.

Enhancing Vietnam's Maritime Capabilities

Since 2017, the U.S. has successfully transferred three Hamilton-class cutters to Vietnam. These vessels include:

  • CSB 8020 (formerly USCGC Morgenthau)
  • CSB 8021 (formerly USCGC John Midgett)
  • CSB 8022 (formerly USCGC Mellon)

These cutters will significantly bolster Vietnam's maritime patrol and law enforcement capabilities. Ultimately, they will contribute to maintaining security and stability in the region.

Celebrating 30 Years of Partnership

This significant event coincides with the celebration of 30 years of U.S.-Vietnam diplomatic relations, a relationship built on mutual respect and shared interests.
