The ship's hydrostatic tables show the corresponding volume displaced. [4] To calculate the weight of the displaced water, it is necessary to know its density.

An AMDR with a mid-diameter of 22 feet (6.7 m) had been proposed for CG(X), while the DDG 51 Flight III design could carry an AMDR with a mid-diameter of only 14 feet (4.3 m). [151] The Government Accountability Office (GAO) found that the design would be "at best marginally effective" because of the "now-shrunken radar".
