Оружие Зумвалта (англ):

Очертаное корабля и его антенн значительно уменьшает его размеры в прицеле вражеских радаров.
“The ship is engineered to fire Tomahawk missiles as well as torpedoes, Evolved Sea Sparrow Missile and a range of standard missiles such as the SM2, SM3 and SM6.
Корабль может запустить КР Томагавк и торпеды, а также любые СМ-2/3/6
The ship also fires Vertical Launch Anti-Submarine Rockets, or ASROCs. ASROCs are 16-feet long with a 14-inch diameter; a rocket delivers the torpedo at very high speeds to a specific point in the water at which point it turns on its sensors and searches for an enemy submarine.
Корабль может запустить вертикальную противо-подлодочную ракету ASROC. Ракета имеет длину около 5 метров и 30см диаметр. Ракета доставляет торпеду на большой скорости в заданное место в воде где включает свои сенсоры в поисках подводных лодок.
“The first weapons to fire from the Mk 57 vertical launch tubes will be the ship defensive weapons called the Evolved Sea Sparrow Missile and the Standard Missile 2, or SM-2.
Стандартная пусковая установка МК 57 запускает SM-2 или -3 или -6 за счёт простого программирования.
Called Peripheral Vertical Launch System, the tubes are integrated with the hull around the ship’s periphery in order to ensure that weapons can keep firing in the event of damage. Instead of having all of the launch tubes in succession or near one another, the DDG 1000 has spread them out in order to mitigate risk in the event attack, developers said.
Вертикальные пусковые установки расставлены с промежутками вокруг носовой части корабля, а не собраны в одном месте, для того, чтоб при повреждении корабля можно было использовать оставшиеся пусковые установки.
In total, there are 80 launch tubes built into the hull of the DDG 1000; the Peripheral Vertical Launch System involves a collaborative effort between Raytheon and BAE Systems.
Всего 80 пусковых установок МК 57 на корабле.
The ship also has a 155mm long range, precision-capable gun called the Advanced Gun System made by BAE Systems. The weapon can, among other things, fire a munition called the Long-Range Land Attack Projectile which can strike target at ranges out to 64 nautical miles.
Корабль имеет 155мм precision-capable пушки, AGS, изготовлены ВАЕ. Эти же пушки могут стрелять управляемыми Long-Range Land Attack Projectile на дистанцию до 100км. (разработан для эл.магнитной пушки).
Most deck mounted 5-inch guns currently on Navy ships are limited to firing roughly 8-to-10 miles at targets within the horizon or what’s called line of sight. The Advanced Gun System, however, fires GPS-guided precision 155m rounds beyond-the-horizon at targets more than three times that distance.
5инч. пушки в ВМФ имеют предел от 8 до 10 миль или до горизонта.
АDG пушка стреляет GPS управляемыми снарядами в три раза дальше.
“The DDG 1000 is unique in that it uses what’s called a dual-band sonar system; this includes both medium and high frequency sonar designed to detect both submarines as well as mines and incoming enemy fire. Most ships have only longer-range, lower frequency medium frequency sonar which provides an ability to detect submarines at long distances. Higher frequency brings a much more precise degree of detection..”
Зумвалт уникален ещё тем, что имеет двойной-band сонар систему, включающую средне- и высокочастотную составляющие, которые могут одновременно искать как подлодки на большом удалении так и мины.
Sonar works by sending out an acoustic "ping" and then analyzing the return signal to process information through a receiver designed to help determine the shape, distance, speed and dimensions of an object or threat.
The ship’s integrated power system, which includes its electric propulsion, helps generate up to 78 megawatts of on-board electrical power, something seen as key to the future when it comes to ship technologies and the application of anticipated future weapons systems such as laser weapons and rail guns. The ship’s electric drive uses two main turbine generations with two auxiliary turbine generators which power up two 35-megawatt advanced induction motors,
