The Adirondack-class command ship was a ship class of command ships of the United States Navy during World War II and the Cold War. All 3 ships were converted from the Type C2-S-AJ1 cargo ships.[1]
Development
Three type C2 cargo ships were converted into command ships for the United States Navy throughout the later stages of World War II. After the war, all were modernized with new radars and decommissioned by 1969 to later be scrapped.
The ship's hull remained nearly the same but with new equipment to carry out her purpose now placed on deck alongside several cranes. The ships' armaments had been slightly changed and relocated in order for the ships to carry out their new roles.[1] All ships served in the Pacific Theater until the end of the war with no ships lost in combat.
