(Photo : U.S. Navy photo by Photographer s Mate 2nd Class Jayme Pastoric/Wikipedia) When the Ticonderoga Class Aegis Guided-Missile Cruisers was introduced, it was one of the most advanced destroyers before DDG 51.
After the Second World War, missile technology improved fast, and large guns were replaced. Eventually, surface ships used rockets as the primary offensive weapons.
Twenty-two of the ships designated as (CG52 - CG73) are equipped with two mk41 Vertical Launch Systems (VLS) with eight Maritime Tomahawks each. The initial five ships from (CG47 to CG51) have a twin launcher included as armament, reported Naval Technology.
