Ship model USS KIDD DDG-993 5

The Spruance-class destroyers are the mainstay of carrier formations, with the primary mission being anti-submarine.

The class is the first U.S. Navy ship to incorporate an advanced gas turbine power plant.

The four LM-2500 gas turbines provide 80,000 horsepower, enabling speeds in excess of 30 knots, while also significantly reducing noise and saving fuel. In addition, the class is stable, has ample reserve buoyancy, good seaworthiness and good maneuverability.

With its advanced weapons systems, the Spirouns can track and attack high-speed submarines, surface ships, warplanes and shore targets around the clock, while also providing fire support for amphibious operations worldwide.

During Operation Desert Storm, the class fired 112 Tomahawk missiles at Iraq. Today, all Spruance-class destroyers have been decommissioned.
