The USS George Washington Carver (SSBN-656), (SSN-656), was a Benjamin Franklin-class Ballistic Missile Submarine named after the famed black researcher and inventor.

Originally an FBM submarine, it was converted to an Attack Submarine after the START Treaty was ratified. She became a casualty of the end of the Cold War, being decommissioned and processed as part of the Navy's Ship & Submarine Recycling Program.
