USS Zumwalt

The USS Zumwalt (DDG-1000) is the Navy’s most advanced and futuristic destroyer to date, leading the Zumwalt-class series named after it. Launched in October 2013 and commissioned on October 15, 2016, this 600-foot-long giant displaces 14,564 tons and boasts an eye-popping price tag of $4.4 billion.

It’s designed for versatility, and supports both naval gunfire and anti-aircraft missions, with the ability to hit targets up to 83 miles away—perfect for supporting ground forces during land attacks. Unlike previous destroyer classes built for deep-water combat only, the Zumwalt’s multi-mission capability sets it apart. With its home port in San Diego, this stealthy powerhouse is a true game-changer.
