☆ US Navy stealth destroyer Zumwalt's deck guns are basically useless, but it's on its way to get new hypersonic missile launchers

Destroyer USS Zumwalt has long had problems with its main deck guns, which don't have any ammunition. The Zumwalt is changing homeports to receive upgrades including a new hypersonic missile system. US Navy guided-missile destroyer USS Zumwalt arrives in Yokosuka for a port visit, September 26, 2022. Unlike China and Russia, the US does not currently have any hypersonic weapons systems deployed. True hypersonic weapons pose a new and potentially unstoppable threat due to their ability to maneuver unpredictably at these speeds.

☆ These may be the world’s best warships. And they’re not American

A challenger for China’s world-beating Type 055sThe Pentagon estimates China’s navy to have around 340 warships at present, while the US has fewer than 300. Take China’s Type 055, in many eyes the world’s premier destroyer. The three Sejongs, which cost about $925 million each, are the pride of the South Korean fleet. All these Japanese and South Korean vessels are designed to incorporate US technology, weapons, spy radars and the Aegis command and control system. But then if the US, Japanese and South Korean ships use similar technology and can operate together, why does the law prevent the US from building some of its ships in Japanese and South Korean shipyards?

☆ Sailors have long complained about jet fuel seeping into their water on US Navy aircraft carriers and other warships. Here's how that can even happen.
  + stars: | 2022-10-21 | by ( Jake Epstein | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +8 min
The crew of a US Navy aircraft carrier recently discovered jet fuel contaminating the water supply. In doing this, the crew has to physically connect the ship's potable water system to its fuel oil system through piping. Aligning the potable water system and the fuel system involves opening valves that are normally locked shut in order to allow the two systems to connect. The fuel system is supposed to be depressurized, and the potable system should be pressurized. "Normally, if you flush out your fuel oil tanks — or your fuel oil system, any part of your fuel oil system — you should be watching for this problem, because you've connected the two systems.

The US Navy recently found traces of jet fuel in the water on board the USS Nimitz aircraft carrier. Those laboratory tests, which were conducted several days after traces of jet fuel were initially detected in the ship's water, did not reveal any "measurable" amounts of hydrocarbons, highly-combustible jet fuel components, Ensign Bryan Blair, a Navy spokesperson, told Insider. Navy Times reported that traces of jet fuel — also known as jet propellant-5 or simply JP-5— was originally found in the Nimitz's water system on September 16 while the ship was in the Pacific Ocean.
