  • After years of stability questions about the hull design for the U.S. Navy’s new three-ship class of stealth destroyers, the commanding officer of the lead ship, USS Zumwalt, is satisfied: It handles the seas as well, if not better, than previous classes of surface combatants.
    Here’s How the Destroyer Zumwalt’s Stealthy Design Handles Stormy Seas

      Seriously when I first went on board a tin can I thought the 2 straps were to hold my blanket and pillow. The first rough weather I joined the other greenhorn on the deck while listening to othe crew members howl. They had waited for the moment 😊

    Former carrier quartermaster. Worked on the bridge. Rough seas is when they wash across the flight deck, and everything that can fit in hangarbay is tied down. Watching from the bridge as the forward section of the flight deck plows under oncoming swells and then rising again is the best ride in the world.

      I was on CVN 70 CARL VINSON I remember having waves crashing over our elevators and water rolling into the hanger deck . Also once while in the Indian Ocean we were trying to out run a typhoon we encountered rough seas and for the first time while sitting at a table in our berthing playing cards my chair and I slide away from the table. There was one other time we had sea trails there were no air wing on board and we went out while there was a storm now that was a wild ride I was walking up hill then down hill...lol i know that doesn't sounded like much of anything to a sailor on a small boy who experience pitch ,roll, and heave and walk the bulkheads. But Because the carrier was always so Cadillac I knew we were in heavy seas.

    The sea was quite calm at 1:22 but you can already see a lot of spray travelling along the inverted bow onto the deck of the ship. The Zumwalts may be stable but must be very wet even at moderate sea conditions.

What's not to like, the ride is smoother, has a somewhat stealth mode and other countries cannot see your goodies. I have no doubt that the Chinese and Russians will copy design once we test it.

      Agreed, a 40ft yacht crossing Bass Straight or the English Channel should be able to handle a 9 meter sea and a 6 meter wave at the same time, which of course means the seas are larger than the boat. I have done it. A U.S ship should be able to handle more than a 4 foot sea.

      Elijah Hodges, the use of ‘propellers’ here was due to a quote by the actual officer, not the narrator. Maybe he chose the word so civilians would know what he meant, since not everyone understands that ‘screws’ refers to the water propulsion devices.

    Tumblehome hulls were of course abandoned when their proclivity to capsize when taking on water dunked the idea. Today's use must presume a superior defense ability. Perhaps also other new safeguards against hull breach induced capsize. The return of the tumblehome hull. I woulda' never thunk it.
    Also, like Jason Frederick, I complain that real film the Zumwalt In high water wasn't available in this vid.

In the movie the time index is 1:12:30 seconds. In this video, just when the spaceship gets big enough draw attention to itself, they cut the scene....lol.....Z

      What he meant to say was that the boat does not have any flat sides or body panels, they are all angled in a direction that would deflect radar singles that they can’t bounce back to the radar unit, basically making it invisible to all modern radar systems

    I am no sailor but the bow of this ship reminds me of a Tanto Point on a hunting knife as it slices it's way through the sea not having to batter it's way - I have always been taught that you have less chance of cutting yourself with a sharp knife than a blunt one.
