Zumwalt is dead project, Russian for just face save, nothing on class of Aligh Bruke class destroyers in terms of fire power/Sensors integration etc etc and Where is UK's Type-45 destroyer its one of the best Naval ships in the world

Type 45 lacks anti ship / land attack capability so it's not included in the list.

So you're counting Multi-role ships???

 

[hyperman]

the Arleigh Burke class is probably a better mention, there a only 3 Zumwalts that are going to be built, b/c they were too expensive, and designed when there was an expectation of a cold war, now the priorities and tactics are different, and the Arleigh Burke class Flight III are going to be the ones being commissioned going forward.

They have to have anti aircraft, anti ship / land attack, anti submarine capabilities of course.

And Zumwalt is also not true Multi-role ship, its more intended for ground attack and has only short range SAms (ROLLING AIR FRAME MISSILE)

With the current economic mumble jumble, it's safe to say there's no AB Flight III for years to come.

According to wiki it's got ESSM.

So you're counting general purpose Multi role ships, but by the way Type-45 have a anti ship capability via anti sub helis

But without fixed anti ship / land attack launchers on the ship.

Austin powers,

Focus your attention more on the quality of the threads you're making over quantity. For example for a thread like this, put in a bit of time and energy researching the various surface vessels of countries and then create a list of ranking using a sound reasonings to justify it. These voluminous output of threads rarely lead to quality discussions.

@Austin Powers is a one sided troll and doesn't here anybody that have neutral opinions

Kolkata class is Ahead than Admiral Gorshkov
