The Zumwalt-class destroyer is a class of large guided-missile destroyers of the United States Navy. First commissioned in 2016, the ships have a distinctive appearance, with an inward-sloping tumblehome hull designed to reduce their radar cross section. The Zumwalt class uses an integrated electric propulsion system that can distribute electricity from turbo-generators to drive motors or other ship systems and weapons. With a research-and-development cost of $9.6 billion, the ships were designed to require a smaller crew and to be less expensive to operate than comparable warships. The program was originally planned to include thirty-two ships, but cost overruns led to successive reductions and only three vessels were ultimately built. This photograph shows the lead ship of the class, USS Zumwalt, transiting the Atlantic Ocean in 2016 during acceptance trials with United States Navy's Board of Inspection and Survey.Photograph credit: United States Navy
