Both of them are pretty awesome...scary!!!
Back in the day, I guess they relied heavily on bulk/thickness of materials. Today, they have advanced materials technology to add to the equation to make things lighter but still stronger.

USS ZUMWALT....$3 Billion and counting. Hope it fares better than the Russian ship that got sunk by only 2 missiles.

I helped build, electrically test & activate and took her to sea on sea trials. Zumwalt is head and shoulders a better ship than the Moskva.

Ironclad styling?

What goes around comes around?

Stealth technology plus that hull style is very smooth at sea. Rides like a Cadillac!

From what I read of the Zumwalts, The whole point is they never see it coming...
