USS 리틀 록 (CL-92/CLG-4/CG-4)는 제2차 세계대전 중 또는 그 직후에 완성된 27척의 미국 해군 클리블랜드급 경순양함 중 하나였으며, 여섯 척 중 한 척이 유도 미사일 순양함으로 전환되었다. 그녀는 아칸소 주 리틀 록의 이름을 딴 최초의 미 해군 함선이었습니다. 1945 년 중반에 위임 된 그녀는 제 2 차 세계 대전 중 전투 의무를 알기에는 너무 늦게 완성되었습니다. 초기 남미 크루즈 후, 그녀는 다음 몇 년 동안 미국 동부 해안, 카리브해 및 지중해에서 봉사했습니다. 그녀의 자매 함선 중 하나를 제외한 모든 것과 마찬가지로, 그녀는 전후 방어 삭감으로 은퇴하여 1949 년 대서양 예비 함대의 일부가되었습니다.

General Characteristics and Role
The USS Little Rock was initially commissioned as a Cleveland-class light cruiser (CL-92) during World War II, though it was completed too late to see action. In the late 1950s, it underwent a massive conversion, being stripped of most of its conventional armament and rebuilt as a Galveston-class guided missile light cruiser (CLG-4). Its new primary role was to act as a fleet air defense commander and anti-air missile platform. After a further reclassification, it became a guided missile cruiser (CG-4). It served as the flagship for the U.S. Second Fleet and the U.S. Sixth Fleet in the Mediterranean for many years during the Cold War. It is the only surviving ship of the Cleveland-class and is now a museum ship at the Buffalo and Erie County Naval and Military Park.
