USS Sioux City conducts a passing exercise with an Egyptian Navy frigate in the Red Sea in July 2022.

The ship is a guided-missile destroyer, which means its main purpose is to provide antiaircraft support to the US Navy's fleet. The Navy has two other Zumwalt-class destroyers: the USS Michael Monsoor and the USS Lyndon B. Johnson.
