USS Zumwalt under rust.

Huh? The superstructure(upper levels) of Zumwalt constructed with panels and beams made of carbon fiber/vinyl ester skins and balsa and/or foam cores. It is not any sort of metal. I do not know what the panels are discolored.


As for the hull, that is just surface corrosion caused by being at sea. Easily treated.

What the, already that rusty?

Although from what I read, apparantly US warships are supposed to rust? And then they fix it when they go to maintainance?

Still not a good look though, and not something that would inspire confidence in regular people.

No ship can go to sea and not have some sort of surface corrosion.
