USS Groton (SSBN-828) will be the will be the third Columbia-class ballistic missile submarine (SSBN) of the United States Navy.

Alongside her sisterships, she will replace the ageing Ohio-class SSBN as part of the American nuclear triad.

Groton was named after Groton, Connecticut, nicknamed the "submarine capital of the world" due to it hosting Naval Submarine Base New London and historically serving as a center of US submarine development.

When she was named in 2025, the boat had not yet been ordered due to a disagreement between the Navy and builder Electric Boat over the cost.
