Since the early 1970’s, as the premier Large Surface Combatant shipyard, HII has built and delivered four different classes of destroyers: thirty-one Spruance-Class (DD 963), four Kidd-Class (DDG 993), nineteen Ticonderoga-Class (CG 47) and more than thirty-five Arleigh Burke-Class (DDG 51). Ingalls is currently building Flight III enhanced Arleigh Burke Guided Missile Destroyers. Additionally, Ingalls will be completing modernization work on all three Zumwalt-class destroyers.
Arleigh Burke-class destroyers are highly capable, multi-mission ships that can conduct a variety of operations, from peacetime presence and crisis management to sea control and power projection, all in support of the United States military strategy.
Zumwalt-class destroyers are capable of performing a range of deterrence, power projection, sea control, and command and control missions while allowing Navy to evolve with new systems and missions.
