1 Hurricane Katrina
2 Revamping all ships tables of the class
3 South Korea
4 Inclusion of GD Template
5 U.S.S. Cole

[edit] Hurricane Katrina

Does anybody agree with me that the fact Katrina damages two being constructed is significent. I would like a second opinion before I add it. --Lionheart Omega 01:32, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Revamping all ships tables of the class

Alright, I may get some of the info wrong so feel free to edit the templates that will be used for the ship tables. Thank you.
Here's the list of the templates.
Template:Arleigh Burke class destroyer displacement I
Template:Arleigh Burke class destroyer displacement II
Template:Arleigh Burke class destroyer displacement IIA
Template:Arleigh Burke class destroyer length I
Template:Arleigh Burke class destroyer length IIA
Template:Arleigh Burke class destroyer beam
Template:Arleigh Burke class destroyer draft
Template:Arleigh Burke class destroyer speed
Template:Arleigh Burke class destroyer range
Template:Arleigh Burke class destroyer complement
Like I said, feel free to edit these templates if some of them are wrong. I'll be watching this discussion page. ViriiK 07:39, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] South Korea

Is the type of the Korean D991 King Sejong a derivative of the Arleigh Burke class ? There are striking similarities. Rama 11:40, 25 May 2007 (UTC)

Sorry, the above question is answered in King Sejong the Great class destroyer, which I hadn't spotted. Rama 11:44, 25 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Inclusion of GD Template

I don't think it's correct to include a General Dynamics template on this page since the DDG-51 class is built by both Northrup Grumman and GD. I think a link is appropriate, but the inclusion of the template is a bit much. Hydrant 02:58, 12 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] U.S.S. Cole

I'm deleting the bit about the U.S.S. Cole in the bottom. It's totally irrelavant to the article. If people want to find out about the Cole attack, go to the article about the Cole! The article is about the Arleigh Burke destroyer in general, not specific ships of the class.
