Is The U.S. Navy's Newest Zumwalt-Class Destroyer Seaworthy?

The Zumwalt-class guided-missile destroyer DDG 1000 is floated out of dry dock at the General Dynamics Bath Iron Works shipyard. The ship, the first of three Zumwalt-class destroyers, will provide independent forward presence and deterrence, support special operations forces and operate as part of joint and combined expeditionary forces. | U.S. NAVY / GENERAL DYNAMICS

WNU editor: This is disturbing .... New Navy Destroyer's Seaworthiness Questioned (AP). And while I am sure that the sea trials that the US Navy will put this destroyer through will be successful .... all that I can say is that at billions of dollars per destroyer .... it better work.
