U.S. Navy’s Stealth Warship Fully Explained

Video Description

In this video, we break down every major sensor, weapon, and combat system on board the U.S. Navy’s most advanced surface combatant — the Zumwalt-class destroyer (DDG-1000). Designed with cutting-edge stealth, automation, and firepower, this futuristic warship is unlike anything else in the fleet. SPY-3 Multi-Function Radar: A powerful X-band AESA radar for fire control, air search, and missile guidance. Dual Band Radar Capabilities (original design and what remains after changes in program scope) AN/SQQ-90 ASW Suite: Combining bow sonar, towed arrays, and processing systems for deep ocean and littoral sub-hunting. Peripheral Vertical Launch System (PVLS): 80 MK 57 VLS cells along the hull edges designed to reduce damage from internal explosions while hosting a variety of missiles like SM-6, Tomahawk, and ESSM. Advanced Gun System (AGS): Two 155mm naval guns (though currently lacking viable ammunition). Close-In Defense: 30mm Mk46 Bushmaster II chain guns for small craft defense. Integrated Power System (IPS): A revolutionary all-electric propulsion system generating 78 MW to power future high-energy weapons. Combat System Integration: How the Total Ship Computing Environment Infrastructure (TSCEI) merges sensors, weapons, and automation into a cohesive battle network. We also touch on its stealth geometry, mission flexibility, and evolving role from land attack to surface warfare and beyond. Whether you're a naval warfare enthusiast or a defense technology analyst, this deep dive into the Zumwalt-class will give you a complete systems-level understanding of America’s most futuristic destroyer. 📫 Promotional inquiries [email protected] 🐦►https://twitter.com/subbrief 🕺►https://www.instagram.com/subbrief ⏰►https://www.tiktok.com/@subbrief 😃► https://www.facebook.com/SubBriefMedia 🏴‍☠️► https://www.SubBrief.com 💵► https://www.patreon.com/subbrief 🔗► https://www.linkedin.com/in/aaron-amick-9538a4171/ 💌 Contact Aaron ► [email protected] 🦃 Jive Turkey https://www.twitch.tv/jivturky #subbrief #subs #navy Aaron's PC Spec ------------------------ CPU: Intel i9-10850K @3.60GHz RAM: 64GB GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 Accelsior 4M2 16.0TB PCIe M.2 NVMe SSD sub brief, sme, subject matter expert, naval, policy, technology, tactical use of the ocean, sonar, submarine tactics, weapons employment, aip, air independent power, 21st century, aaron, amick, aaron amick, sonar, sonarman, sme, SME, subject matter expert, naval, games, wargames, testing, tactics, news, history, tactical use of the ocean, hide, find, search, jive turkey, jive, subbrief,
