US Navy takes delivery of destroyer Harvey C. Barnum Jr.

Armament includes a 127mm naval gun, 25mm autocannons, a 20mm close-in weapon system, torpedoes, surface-to-air missiles, and Tomahawk land attack cruise missiles.

The navy said the delivery of the future Harvey C. Barnum Jr. followed a rigorous series of at-sea and pierside trials designed to demonstrate the ship’s readiness and performance across propulsion, combat systems, communications, and navigation functions.
