WASHINGTON — The U.S. Navy has created a new program office to usher the next class of destroyer into the fleet, after the service has struggled to find a replacement for its aging cruisers and destroyers over the past decade.
The Guided Missile Destroyer (DDG(X)) program office, or PMS 460, falls under the Program Executive Office for Ships at Washington Navy Yard and is led by Capt. David Hart.
DDG(X)の注目点は、
・大型レーダーと大型ミサイル搭載（船体の大型化）
・SPY-6 AMDR とイージス ベースライン 10
・極超音速ミサイル、Mk 41 VLS収まらない長距離兵器の搭載の可能性
・大量の電力を消費する指向性エネルギー兵器、EW機器
・Integrated Power System
