The ARLEIGH BURKE (DDG 51) Class destroyer represents the latest in a distinguished lineage of U.S. Navy combatants. The 62nd DDG 51 Class destroyer recently entered into service, and there are still many more to be built. DDG 51 Flight I/II: (DDG 51-78), 28 ships active DDG 79 Flight IIA: (DDG 79-112), 34 ships active (DDG 113-122), 10 more ships scheduled DDG 123 Flight III: extended plans (DDG 123-146), 24 additional ships Current scheduled total number of DDG 51 Class destroyers is 72 Good possibility for 96 destroyers. Propulsion fuel efficiency and reduction of maintenance on the DDG 51 Class thus become fertile areas for cost savings.
