America's WWII Warships: Lexington-Class Carriers Showed U.S. Naval Resilience Despite Heavy Combat Losses

The USS Zumwalt (DDG-1000) is one of the newest destroyers in the U.S. Navy, designed as part of a next-generation class of multi-mission warships. It features an integrated electric propulsion system, a wave-piercing tumblehome hull, and advanced stealth technology that reduces its radar signature. Construction began in 2009, and the ship was launched in 2013 before undergoing extensive trials, ultimately entering service in 2016. Though only three Zumwalt-class ships were built, they represent a major step in naval innovation aimed at maintaining U.S. maritime superiority.
