USS

USS
1. United States Ship. Dans la marine de guerre américaine, précède le nom du navire. Ex : 1755 New Jersey (navire de ligne mis en service en 1943), USS Nimitz (porte-avions lancé en 1972).
2. United States Steel. Premier groupe sidérurgique américain. Issu en 1901 du groupe Carnegie (géant de l'acier, 2/3 de la production américaine à la fin du XIXe siècle). Devant la surproduction mondiale d'acier, le groupe a peu à peu diversifié ses activités (en particulier vers les hydrocarbures). De ce fait, il a modifié son nom qui, en 1986, est devenu USX. Son classement dans la production mondiale est donc logiquement en recul (10e groupe sidérurgique mondial en 1998,14e en 2000).
