USS Detroit (AOE-4) was a Sacramento-class fast combat support ship commissioned in 1968 and named for Detroit, Michigan. One of the Navy's most capable underway replenishment vessels, she delivered fuel, ammunition, and provisions to the fleet across nearly three decades of operations in the Atlantic, Mediterranean, and Persian Gulf. She supported Desert Storm in 1990–91 and was decommissioned in 1995 — a career that spanned nearly the full arc of postwar American naval history.
