Oooh ! Sorry :eek: I thought too Forbin :)

But I don't have graphics for him.

FREMM also qualify as aegis like as well, as do Formidable and 054A, if the key qualifiers are VLS, advanced phased array radar, multirole capability, and integrated combat management system

I like how the Singapore Navy can use 3200 tons of displacement:

US AEGIS ships addition :

- All new Burke Fl IIa and after III from 63th are to be built from the start with a BMD capability

- And a big surprise according last congress report Zumwalt is non-Aegis and non ABM, have a very good new radar but definitely software matter then will be enough dependent her escort for AAW and for eventual gun battle with enemy ships.

The Zumawalt will be very capable of AAW defense and will fire ESSM and Standard SM-6 missiles.

I cannot believe that it will not have Cooperative Engagment capabilites as well woith the AEGOIS DDGs and CGs.

It may now be straight AEGIS, but it is very capable...and I bet it will ulitmatley be fully integrated with AEGIS.

SPY-4 radar deleted,nice article.

“In 2010, we took out the volume search radar, the S-band sensor in the dual-band radar system, leaving the SPY-3 X-band radar, which received modifications from Raytheon to increase its volume-search capabilities. The system, installed for testing at Wallops Island, Virginia, will be tested next year on the self-defense test ship Paul F. Foster, which already has conducted a series of SPY-3 tests,” Downey said. Those earlier tests, he said, “went really well.”

Then finaly her AGS guns can do antisurface warfare, good point mainly for a ship which want 4 billion $ and normal for a naval gun.

Seems one shell also effective as 3 of 127 mm which compensates for the lower firing rate with a better accuracy 20/50m.

I did a cursory search and I am curious why isn't Russian's Project 22350 "Admiral Gorshkov" not included here?

And a bunch of pictures from :

It seems that Project 22350 "Admiral Gorshkov" qualifies the "Aegis-like" ship almost to the T - except it uses PAR instead of AESA. It has Air search radar: 5P-27(Furke 4) main search radar, 5P-20K (Poliment)Phased array, search & targeting radar, Surface search radar 34K1 (Monolit), Fire control radar: 5P-10 (Puma) for A-192M It has 32 (4 × 8) Redut VLS cells for 9M96 and 9M100 air defence missiles (tick!), 2 × Palash CIWS (tick!), Helipad and hangar for Ka-27 series helicopter (tick!), 1 × 130mm Arsenal A-192M naval gun (tick!), 2 × 8 UKSK VLS cells fitted with P-800 Oniks (SS-N-26) and/or 3M-54 Klub (SS-N-27) family of missiles...etc.

The layout and the arrangement of various design components follows the pioneering Arleigh Burke-class very closely - with deck gun and VLS cells in front, 4 panels of air search radar mounted above the deckhouse, the Palash CIWS (even the name sounds like Phalanx CIWS) mounted near the deckhouse, the engine exhaust right after the deckhouse and a helipad at the back.

I think the AGS gun has the potential to perform anti surface warfare but currently do not have that capability. It has been pointed out by others but the reason for this lack of capability is not discussed. A recent article on the AGS gun.
