Apparently you gents are Navally Challenged... The photo below is not in Hawaii..but in San Diego CA. That is a photo of the USS Midway CV-41 Now a Aircraft carrier Museum. I lived in San Diego for 26 years. Served with the USN from 1971 til 1991 and I did serve on Midway from August 1973 until August 1974.

The overall objective of Stellar Daggers was to test the Aegis system's sea-based ability to simultaneously detect, track, engage and destroy multiple incoming air and ballistic missile threats during terminal or final phase of flight. The Benfold's Aegis Weapons System successfully detected and intercepted a cruise missile target with a SM-2 BLK IIIA, while simultaneously detecting and intercepting an incoming SRBM target with a modified SM-2 BLK IV. This is the first time the fleet has successfully tested the Aegis system's ability to intercept both an SRBM in terminal phase and a low-altitude cruise missile target at the same time.

Class particulars
The three SIGMA-class frigates for the Royal Moroccan Navy have been designed according to Schelde Naval Shipbuilding's revolutionary SIGMA-approach and are a further development of the SIGMA-corvettes for the Indonesian Navy. The SIGMA approach applies modularity in many areas, which offers the user great flexibility at reduced costs. The frigates are also known as "FMMM", which stands for Frégates Multi-Missions Marocaines. The first frigate is longer than numbers two and three, to accommodate a VIP-crew and command facilities. The vessels are built according to Lloyds Register Class for unrestricted service and are enhanced by proven naval principles. The superior propulsion and sea keeping capabilities make the SIGMA class frigates perfectly suited for operations in Moroccan territorial waters. Basic functions are maritime patrols and surveillance in the Territorial Waters and EEZ. In addition fishery protection, prevention and protection of natural resources, maritime search and rescue as well as the assigned constabulary tasks in law enforcement at sea will belong to the vessels capabilities. A helicopter deck and hangar for helicopters with a maximum weight of 5 tonnes, with lashing points and refuelling system is provided (landing and take-off up to 9 tonnes). Heli operations can be performed at day and night.

FREMMFrégate européenne du futur

FREMM est bien plus que la dernière génération de frégates européennes. Sa force de frappe, sa capacité à traiter l’information, communiquer et conduire l’action en réseaux, sa furtivité inégalée dans le monde des navires de combat, en font le pendant amphibien des sous-marins. Son ultime discrétion renforce les chances de succès des opérations qu’elle conduit, en toute sécurité, quel que soit le théâtre (exemple : forces spéciales).

FREMM mérite sa réputation de « frégate européenne du futur ». De sa conception à son démantèlement, tout a été pensé afin de minimiser son impact sociétal et environnemental, du choix des matériaux au recyclage des eaux usées. Cette approche responsable passe notamment par la conformité aux normes OMI (Organisation Maritime Internationale).

Our flagship, the pre-WWI monitor, Lajta/Leitha. It has been restored recently, after serving as a commercial tugboat for about a century.
