@bd popeye ...I sure like the clean, sleek lines of the Zumwalt...and her stealth design.

Zumwalt-new-008.jpg Zumwalt-new-009.jpg Zumwalt-new-004.jpg

She is a good looking and powerful vessel. And one day, when they have a rail gun and lasers on this baby...she's going to be something to behold for sure!

Latest word is that the LBJ gets launched with a 155mm Rail Gun in the AGS position just forward of the bridge. Can't wit to see that!
