1/700 Missile Destroyer USS Zumwalt DDG-1000 Full HullThe Zumwalt class is a class of destroyers of the United States Navy, whose construction began with the first example in October 2008 at the Bath Iron Works shipyards. The class leader was dedicated to Admiral Elmo Zumwalt , important figure in the US Navy of the sixties and seventies, as chief of naval operations and author of an important reform of the navy personnel. Initially planned in 32 examples, these were first reduced to 10 Points due to production problems and rising costs ia 3 and the program considered at risk by the US Navy under the Nunn-McCurdy amendment of 2010 on defense cost cuts. The project includes a very advanced stealth concept hull, cutting-edge electronics, two multi-weapon vertical launchers for a total of 256 missiles, two 155mm automatic cannons and two 57mm CIWS systems for point defense. The project also envisages the installation of induction cannons (railguns) when this technology is mature. For the first time since the Russo-Japanese War of 1905, a military ship reprises the form with a spur bow, this time not as an offensive weapon but to decrease radar signatures and “squeeze” the waves rather than ride them.
