Hi tech...
The largest destroyer ever built for the U.S. Navy headed out for sea trials for the first time on Monday, David Sharp reports on businessinsidercom.
The futuristic 600-foot, 15,000-ton ship has electric propulsion, new radar and sonar, powerful missiles and guns, and a stealthy design to reduce its radar signature, Sharp wrote.
The Zumwalt, the first of three ships in the class, will cost at least $4.4 billion, he added.
