USS Ernest E. Evans (DDG-141) is a planned Arleigh Burke-class guided missile destroyer of the United States Navy, the 91st overall of the class.

The award was given posthumously after Evans died leading a small group of ships in a charge against a force that was superior in both numbers and firepower, in what would become to be known as "The Last Stand of the Tin Can Sailors".

Secretary of the Navy Carlos Del Toro made the announcement during Native American Heritage Month, while at the United States Naval Academy on 15 November 2023.
