The
yet to be named Zumwalt class DDG 1000 rescues a fishing captain 40 miles to the South East of
Portland Maine during its initial sea trials. The select crew performed the
rescue in a small boat launched from the "Zumwalt class destroyer" at
3:00 am Monday last. "Rescue from other ships" now has a check mark for the DDG 1000 today. The
Navy team onboard did their job well. The stealthy-like ship gives out a radar
signature the size of a fishing boat even though its 15,000 tons is a massive
seagoing object with a crew of about 180 members. The Arleigh-Burke class
destroyer company is close to 300 members. This suggests more automations and
sci-fi efficiency.
