USS Ampere (ADG-11)
The USS Ampere (ADG -11) was a degaussing vessel of the United States Navy, named after the ampere, a unit of electric current (which takes its name from the French physicist André-Marie Ampère). Originally planned as a patrol craft escort (PCE-919), she was instead designated the USS Drake (AM-359), an Admirable Class minesweeper.
