    • Don't be so excited. The frigate is only "launched" probably not fitted out yet...

      any secretive FCS or ECM radome will not be fitted yet... and if fitted will be censored off any pics.

      the Arleigh Burke is a DDG. Its a guided missile destroyer. Its supposed to be an AEGIS destroyer to escort bigger ships such as cruisers n carrier.

      Difference from our FFG is that 1, we are stealth, but the Arleigh Burke ain't. The Arleigh Burke has a very powerful radar and computer that allows it to engage multiple hostile air targets, be it aircraft or sea-skimming anti-ship missiles. Its basically a smaller ship, with similar capabilities to the Ticonderoga class cruisers. Different roles, different duties.

      They are stealth.But their shape make me doubt .



      ARLEIGH BURKE Class Guided Missile Destroyer:

      ..... The DDG 51 was the first U.S. Navy ship designed to incorporate shaping techniques to reduce radar cross-section to reduce their detectability and likelihood of being targeted by enemy weapons and sensors. .
