Why is this called to be Next Generation, Stealthiest and Smartest Destroyer... in the World ??
Here is a Short video which gives perfect answer
Now if the US could afford to build more than 3 of them they might actually prove useful. As it is they are doomed to be used as engineering test beds for their entire careers - so that promising tech can be transferred to the AB's or similar platforms.
If you are emotionally invested in 'believing' something is true you have lost the ability to tell if it is true.
The USN really should stop calling them "destroyers". These are cruisers...
I would go so far to redesignating them CL-161 through 163 (or CLG since they do have guided missiles, but since strike is her primary duty, I'd just use CL)
