A study to place the AN/SPY-6 on a DDG 1000 hull was done with the 22-foot (6.7 m) aperture primarily for Ballistic Missile Defense (BMD) purposes. In that the DDG 1000 does not have an Aegis Combat System, as does the DDG 51 class ships, but rather the Total Ship Computing Environment Infrastructure (TSCEI), the Radar/Hull Study stated:
USS Zumwalt (DDG-1000) is a guided missile destroyer of the United States Navy. She is the lead ship of the Zumwalt class and the first ship to be named after Admiral Elmo Zumwalt . [ 10 ] [ 11 ] Zumwalt has stealth capabilities, having a radar cross-section similar to a fishing boat despite her large size. [ 12 ]
USS Arleigh Burke (DDG-51) This is a list of destroyers of the United States Navy, sorted by hull number.It includes all of the series DD, DL, DDG, DLG, and DLGN. CG-47 Ticonderoga and CG-48 Yorktown were approved as destroyers (DDG-47 and DDG-48) and redesignated cruisers before being laid down; it is uncertain whether CG-49 Vincennes and CG-50 Valley Forge were ever authorized as destroyers ...
Raytheon (RTX) is going to offer total ship computing environment lab hardware for supporting DDG 1000-class combat system activation, sustainment and modernization.
USS Michael Monsoor (DDG-1001) is the second ship of the three-ship Zumwalt class of guided missile destroyers.The Zumwalt-class was designed as a multi-mission surface combatant for land attack and littoral operations with a mission of supporting both ground campaigns and the joint/naval battlespace.
General Dynamics' (GD) Bath Iron Works (BIW) unit gains a $26.5-million contract from the Naval Sea Systems Command, Washington, DC.
The Zumwalt class has been identified as more suited to use emerging technologies, like railguns, due to its superior electricity generation capability over previous destroyers and cruisers at 80 megawatts; Lyndon B. Johnson specifically was being studied because it is the latest of the class, while the previous two ships would be less likely ...
Future vessels of the class may be lengthened with a payload module for additional capabilities. [4] [14] The DDG(X) hull design will incorporate lessons and elements from both the Arleigh Burke and Zumwalt designs. The vessels will be able to accommodate larger missile launch systems, improved survivability, and space, weight, power, and ...
