The DDG-999 USS Zumwalt VX-II

Envisioned as the cutting-edge precursor* to the revolutionary Zumwalt-class destroyers, serving as a testbed for advanced technologies. Designed with even more ambitious specifications than the DDG-1000, it aimed to push the limits of naval warfare innovation. However, the VX-II program faced a host of crippling issues that prevented it from progressing beyond the planning stage.

The ship's radar system was plagued by severe calibration problems, making target tracking inconsistent and unreliable. Its engine transmission system suffered from repeated breakdowns during simulated trials, leading to concerns over propulsion reliability. The general wiring throughout the vessel's design schematics was found to be overly complex and prone to failures, creating significant risks during high-stress operations.

These technical challenges, combined with escalating costs and a lack of faith in the project's feasibility, led to its cancellation. The lessons learned from the VX-II's failures, however, directly informed improvements in the DDG-1000 program, ensuring that the in-service USS Zumwalt and its successors would benefit from more reliable systems and streamlined designs. The VX-II remains a cautionary tale in naval innovation, highlighting the fine line between ambition and practicality.

Features:
• Zumwalt with weird proportions
• third instalment for my naval collection
• AMERICA!!!
• DDG-999? Haha lol

That's all, this is just a target for your uhh.. needs, it has countermeasures for AI and 30 guardian missiles named RIM-174, anyways enjoy it ;)
