Here are some views of a Flt I BURKE: the DECATUR, named after a young naval hero of the Barbary Wars. Note that besides no helo hanger on the Flt Is, there are 2 CIWS. Also, observe the slightly different funnel shape compared to the later "Flt" DDG above. :) DFO

Arleigh Burke Class Guided-Missile Destroyers USS Sterett and USS John S. McCain pictured as they transit the South China Sea, February 9th 2021....The Destroyer at the rear is a Flight I, whilst the forward ship is a Fight IIA. The most obvious difference is the helicopter hangar added on the IIA, very clear in this view.

US Navy destroyer uses Thales’ radar for SM-3 Launch on Remote test


The US Navy’s destroyer USS Paul Ignatius has conducted a Standard Missile 3 (SM-3) ‘Launch on Remote’ test using data from Thales’ SMART-L Naval Multi-Mission (SMART-L MM/N) radar.

The Arleigh Burke-class guided-missile ship also used the track data from the long-range surveillance radar to guide the SM-3 interceptor to destroy a non-separating ballistic missile in space.

This activity was conducted during the US-led military Missile Defence exercise ‘At Sea Demo/Formidable Shield 2021 (ASD/FS21)’.

Installed on the Royal Netherlands Navy’s De Zeven Provinciën-class air defence and command frigate ‘HNLMS De Zeven Provinciën’, the SMART-L MM/N surveillance radar autonomously detected and tracked the ballistic missile.

ASD/FS21 exercise is an integrated air and missile defence (IAMD) drill on the Hebrides test range in the Western Isles of Scotland.

It is organised by the US Navy’s Sixth Fleet and the Maritime Theater Missile Defence Forum.

The SMART-L MM/N long range surveillance radar successfully tracked the ballistic missile for more than five minutes as it reached speeds of 3km/s and an altitude of more than 300km.

The Arleigh Burke-class guided-missile destroyer received the tracking data through the Nato communications network.
