New Signals Intelligence Warship: (Unedited): 03 Oct 2017:
3 masted. Middle mast taller.
Each Mast with 3 Phased array panels on either side.
The forward mast has four Phased array panels as does the rear mast.
A dome on top of each mast. The center mast has bigger dome.
The ships bridge is built within the front mast.
4 phalanx CIWS.
4 SeaRAM CIWS.
Ability to add a future Bow energy weapon or use the standard Naval gun. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/5%22/54_caliber_Mark_45_gun#Variants
???VLS at rear of ship. Mostly for self defense. Anti ARM.
??? gun or 2 guns ??? Two Guns Ghost Town, Winslow, Arizona. ??? Where did that come from?
The bow bulb emits acoustical sounds to mimic other types of ships as well as other electronic functions.
Two functional aft winglets near the rear of the ship also emit acoustical sounds as well as other electronic functions.
Two towed devices at rear of ship. The ability to tow electronic devices at once. Very Long. Antenna?.
Each phased array panel is multi-function. So they are odd looking and are not a typical sight in the American military shape. The top portion is for orbital watch. The bottom strip is for IFF. Then there is a right half and a left half. All of which can be aimed at one spot. All emitted electronic energies can be aimed at a singular spot.
==================
Can send 12 kinds or types of very high powered data bursts to multiple aerial targets or to a singular target. This includes incoming smart dancing missiles. The new missiles from Russia and China which in the last seconds do those crazy cork screws in order to defeat Phalanx CIWS. Which I believe will be successful in defeating Phalanx.
Can flood the horizon or two horizons with sweeping data tidal waves.

================
I think if this is even considered to be built it will be in response to China's new Signals Intelligence ships being built as well as the ever present Russian Signal Intelligence ships which seem to be ever present in the Atlantic ocean near Georgia and the Carolina's.
Especially, If it is known that China had electronically spoofed the two Naval warships into collision. Or even spoofed the military GPS system to give false data. Or all of the above. Either way this janitor won't know this bit of very probable classified information if it is real or not.
Just because this ship would have the power to melt other ships antennas and bio mass. Doesn't mean it has to advertise the ability.
----------------------------
So to an underwater submarine. This one surface ship can electronically pretend to be 6 plus ships.
=================
If this is real. Then the USA should build 10-20 of these. One assigned for each Naval battle group. Build for those which are to be sold to only real friends. Including Israel, Japan, Australia, GB and Not Turkey or Saudi Arabia.
Four plus units should be built for the US Coast Guard. Alaska, Hawaii, California, Florida, Puerto Rico and Washington D.C..
This ship must always be assigned to battle groups.
This is a DEW Warship.
Added on 23 Feb 2020: Porcupine Warships. Every class of next generation of warships. Will have porcupine elements extruding from the sides of the warships. These will be DEW RF related antennas.

Mid Flight Cruise Vision: (Unedited): 23 Nov 2015:
A difficult read right now.
==============================
I think this is many years into the future. Possible prophecy. In which there will be no civilian winners. Civilians always lose no matter which side they are on. Their losses are always very personal.
I see several flights of different kinds of aircraft. Some manned and many more autonomous. I will do my best to describe what I see. The location is unknown as I feel like I'm above the clouds.
What I see is the transition from mid flight to terminal flight. (My words).
The spearhead of the entire grouping of aircraft is lead by the cheaper and dumber cruise missiles. All with their own preset targeting assignments. Their destinations are the hardened military sites.
A short duration later. The primary flights of both manned and unmanned aircraft. Along side of them are the much smarter cruise missiles.
The manned aircraft have their full compliment of missiles as well as command and control of their own networked cruise missiles in flight along with each corresponding manned airplane. Some of the cruise missiles are taxed with defense of the manned aircraft.
The manned aircraft seemed to have more separation between them. Although they are still paired together.
------------------------------
There are many varieties of cruise missiles.
The dumber cruise missiles. Are pre-programmed with set destinations of hardened targets. They are sent in to absorb and overwhelm the first defensive actions of the enemy SAM (Surface Air Missile) sites.
Cruise missiles with their own radar and can be targeted for incoming threats. The new targeting data can come from other aircraft sources within the network or from satellite communications and ground control Radar stations.
Cruise missiles. Which can be nuclear penetrators. These would fly as any other cruise missile would. Once it reaches it's target destination. It would quickly gain altitude to a certain terminal height. Then engage a hyper velocity engine diving straight down through the target. Thus, detonating the nuclear payload deep underground.
Cruise missiles. Which may have pre-selected targeting data can be re-programmed throughout the entire flight path. If enough fuel is left over they can even loiter until a target is assigned. If no new target is assigned. The cruise missile can self destruct in a safe place or it can follow pre-programmed target assignments.
Cruise missiles can be assigned to a specific aircraft. Like a heavy, slow and very visible bomber. Depending on package set up. They can act as additional eyes, electronic disruption or as defensive weapons for defense of the bomber. If the bomber is lost. The cruise missile can be re-assigned to a new aircraft or dispatched on a new mission.
This is how it could look or planned out. The bombers take flight. They refuel many times. Upon the last refueling. The bombers are met up with their assigned compliment of cruise missiles. Which arrange themselves in the best tactical formation around each of the bombers. Within a flight. How they would arrange themselves. I do not have the knowledge to even guess. The cruise missiles may originate from Navy destroyers, Submarines or from land.
Some of the new ultra-long range cruise missiles. Have some kind of added stage. Which can be dropped off in mid flight.
----------------------
The enemies Sam sites see the first wave and launch their missiles. Destroying almost all of them. The rest are re-targeted and destroyed. It takes time to reload a missile battery. It takes time to shoot and to scoot. The spearhead of the next wave of cruise missiles are the ARMs and electronic jamming Cruise missiles or drones. Blinded, partially blinded or receiving misleading data telemetry. the active Radar systems are targeted and destroyed. Command and control are destroyed next. Drones and sensor type of cruise missiles. Seek out for active signals and alert the incoming cruise missile for new targeting data. Drones see the reloading of mobile SAM batteries. Ground controllers far away re-task certain cruise missiles already in flight. Those SAM batteries being reloaded are destroyed.
-------------------
As the SAM sites exhaust their missiles. They all need to be reloaded. While at the same time those that shoot their entire missile compliment. Will need to scoot to a predesignated safe place for reloading. Those mobile SAM launchers should be easily tracked by surveillance drones. Then with satellite up-links the incoming waves of cruise missiles can acquire new targeting data and continuous intelligence feed in real time. If the timing is perfect. The incoming wave of cruise missiles can arrive at the exact time when the reloading process has already begun. Thus, destroying more than the mobile SAM launcher.
==================
The waves of cruise missiles were intermixed. With a variety of different styles of cruise missiles. Different varieties and capabilities. It does seem the rear of these ultra range cruise missiles are all identical. This is where the ranges in excess of 3000 miles comes into effect.
There is a dual purpose drive unit. The primary typical jet engine unit. Coupled to or mated together in some way with a hyper velocity or rocket motor. These may be staged units of some kind.
================
That seems to be the end of the vision. No real ending or location. From whom to whom. I think what is important we as a human species are all on an evolutionary path for extinction through warfare. The technology is present. The point will come when the few can begin a war or end a civilization regardless of what the general population desires. If the common soldier refuses to go to war for no apparent reason. There will be enough autonomous machines of war to start a war and force everyone to become engaged in warfare. Once the fighting begins. Total human extinction will be the final conclusion and then there will be peace on Earth. Hence the Peace sign as we commonly know it. Is a dead tree of life. An upside down symbol. It is also a broken cross of Christ. Which represents the opposite teaching of Christ which was to love one another. You cannot love your brother when you are killing him as he is killing you. Only the purple words below can save humanity from extinction. But, it has to begin at the individual level and by your own free choice.

Sinners Allowed: Hero Sinners: (Unedited): 13 Aug 2015:
Hero Sinners: (Unedited): 13 Aug 2015:
Prophecy Fulfilled. Abomination of desolation. The little anti-Christs knowingly accept actively engaged sinners who have no desire to repent of any of their sins into every aspect of Church leadership as well as membership. Each of these are the fore runners of the great destroyer to come. Each of these are the demonically controlled John the Baptists who teach twisted truths.

========================================
1 of 1000: (Unedited): 16 Aug 2015:
The planet is still very difficult and hard. The animal life and all aspects of fauna is in abundance. The stars may even be different. The remnant shall become the true caretakers of this new or reformed planet. They each shall have a direct communication with all of the life upon this new world. Some, most or all aspects of the spiritual gifts shall be readily used by those who easily embrace them. The animal life shall openly come to them for assistance or assurance. Even the great and fearsome predators shall come to them in love and acceptance. The fear that the former humans once have had is as extinct as they are now. These animals shall not be treated as pets or as service animals. Direct two way communication shall be easy and not divined in any way. The understanding of the needs, wants and desires of any animal or plant shall not be confusing or vague.
In the year one thousand of one thousand. The destroyer shall come. His thirst for blood shall go unquenched. The one thousand years of peace shall end. This is only a prophecy and revelation of any prophecy can alter it completely. So if the new remnant of humanity plans and prepares for the eventual arrival or freedom of this great destroyer. Then destroyed they shall not become. By holding firmly onto love, peace, harmony and life. By not allowing themselves to forget the laws. By keeping in actual communion with God. By becoming and remaining a holy and righteous people in the sight of God. The destroyer shall have no effect. In one thousand years much can be lost and forgotten. Just as this digital content shall be lost forever when the power goes out. So to many things can be forgotten or just simply unknown. Through prayer, meditation, Contemplation and fasting. Shall answers and new questions come to the forefront of the searching spirit and mind.
In year one of one thousand. Begins a life of survival. Shall the new humans forget everything and regress back into their most basic of animalistic natures? or will they embrace all that they can evolve to be? That will be their every second and every day choice. With those very important questions. How can we do more than just survive? When survival in any sense. Is not fun and is not living a life with any kind of purpose or meaning. Survival is merely not becoming extinct. With all of the bruises, blood and broken bones. That go along with survival.
In year one of one thousand. A thousand years may seem like it is so far away. But, it is not. You must begin at day one of these next one thousand years. To plan for the future of humanity and for the coming of the great destroyer. Every single day must be for the future of humanity. Every day must have purposeful and planned works for the last day of one thousand years. So that when that very last day is upon humanity. When the destroyer does come every aspect of his arrival shall be mitigated and or prevented. The destroyer shall become ineffective. But beware, in all of these things. Do not allow hate to seep in. Do not allow a war footing to take a hold. Do not allow chaos to cause you to fear greatly in those last hundreds of years. Do not give up, give in or to quit any where in between. Do not acknowledge that your death/extinction is an option to be considered at any time. To burst through that coming one thousand year barrier. Shall become the birth of something new and wonderful. Something which shall not know any limitation of time and space.
This may very well be the last time that God shall save humanity. It is in this prophecy in which nothing follows. This prophecy does not declare any saving. There shall not be a Noah, A Moses, A new Adam/Eve or even a Jonah with a warning. There shall not be a remnant to be saved yet again. So in this last one thousand years. It shall be all of your responsibility. To maintain your holiness and righteousness as seen by God. It shall be all of your responsibility to choose by your own free will to love one another, to live in peace, to exist in harmony, to revere all life and to honor the laws.
It shall be your time:

USA war 2026?: (Unedited): 27 Dec 2014:
The six Retired Aircraft Carriers can be re-used as either Drone launching platforms, Helicopter Carriers or a combination of both. With the current world at an aggressive cold war. The cold war lines have been drawn and the first cyber war having just occurred or is it ongoing. Not a question.
========================
-----------
A highly expanded and complete form of the Aegis combat system integration. With missile offensive and defensive capabilities. Missile systems to be covered by the flight deck. Vertical Launch system positioned in the deck of the ship deemed unused for future use. Torpedo ports near sea level of the ship.
http://news.usni.org/2013/06/20/navy-develops-torpedo-killing-torpedo
-----------
200-300 of the next generation Sikorsky S-97 Raider Helicopters. One the major draw back to these craft is the limited operational range of 308 NM. This range will need to be doubled and just adding more fuel capacity will degrade performance. This craft is still under developmental status.
------------
A new generation of combat drone craft which can be launched and retrieved by an Aircraft Carrier.
These drones must have a chosen/selected capability of spoofing enemy radar, Carrying a destructive warhead/missiles, Radar Jamming as well as a host of other capabilities. I see combat drones becoming the spearhead of any aerial attack on any target. To overwhelm, to exhaust and to divide defensive weapons systems. So that human powered craft can exact total damage on selected targets.
------------
By allowing the USS Nimitz and the USS Eisenhower to be refit with greater defensive capabilities. As well as keeping a full compliment of FA/18FG combat planes. The lethality of this new battle group will be complete. All of the holes covered. Except for the new one as yet to be exploited.
========================
A country will build a new modern missile battleship in a length greater than Aircraft Carriers. Which in packs will be able to defeat entire Aircraft carrier battle groups and aircraft at full running speed.
========================
========================
======================
A new Naval Battle Group. Which will consist of 3 Aircraft Carriers, 2 Battleships, 4 Cruisers, 4 Destroyers, 8 frigates, 6 Attack submarines and support vessels. As well as dedicated military satellites.
========================
The state of these ships listed may very well be cost prohibited for modernization and re-fit. But, the hulls of each ship listed may still be in usable or repairable condition.

According to Pastor Steve Weyerts.This is what could be in store for the year 2026?. I do believe there is an order to all things. The following list of bible verses are not in any logical order. Except maybe the last one. Here is a clue if your unaware. The name of the USA is not the USA. Think about the original name that the puritans were going to create for themselves. Which is either New JerUSAlem or new Israel. Islam knows this. Why do you think they call the USA the great satan? Although it is deeper than that.

Added on 24 Jan 2015: Some time this year. The USA may have to endure yet another discipline from GOD. As was done in 2001 and 2008. If the USA is allowed to survive intact.
Then this 2026? war footing may be possible. The defenselessness of the USA is astounding. That even a country like North Korea can put the entire USA back into the 1300's. So can Russia. So can China. What is worse is that President made a generalized comment that the DD of the USA even knows it. Even though the vast majority of the civilian population is completely unaware. Better go find that comment.
------------------------------
http://www.wsj.com/articles/SB10001424052970204358004577032533741783056
------------------------------
I may have written this before. The USA in order to save a ton of money. Is to reinvigorate their old hulls that are deemed mothballed. Just as President Putin is doing with his old USSR Cold War ships. In a short period of time. The USA can have as many as 19 fully modified Aircraft carriers. One old aircraft carrier can be converted into a drone carrier. A drone carrier which can house maybe 1000+ armed drones. That's the future.
An A10 Thunderbolt 3 warthog aircraft carrier. The hog is a dead plane that just keeps on surviving through cannibalism and capitalism. So an entire new plane will have to be re-engineered. With all of the on going cannibalism that has been going on. They know what fails. Just by re-engineering those parts to be more hardened. The plane will be improved. The plane does need more improved (Power and speed) and efficient engines. Newly re-engineered landing gear for aircraft carrier use if possible. Ground and pound at its best. This type of aircraft carrier as well as the drone aircraft carrier will have substantially more defensive capabilities for survivability. Such as under the flight deck missile launchers of various strategic and tactical capabilities. I would bet you could put at least 100 cruise missile launch tubes on each side of the ship. Then reload from inside of the ship. Without any physical exposure. The USA may need a new modernized cruise missile. Can you say hypersonic and they must be 2000+ mile range.
----------------------
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fairchild_Republic_A-10_Thunderbolt_II
-----------------------
The A10 Aircraft carrier would come close to shore. Once air superiority has been assured. Ground troops and special forces are going into play. The A10's would come in for close in support. Plus cruise missile backup.
=========================
Added on 24 Jan 2015: Aircraft carrier/ missile battleship.
China, Russia and North Korea already know that to defeat the overwhelming military threat of the USA is to neutralize their Aircraft carriers. Which is why those countries have developed new supersonic and hypersonic anti-aircraft carrier missile systems. Which is why the old retired and mothballed American aircraft carriers are essential to a future battle. By utilizing the apparent empty space underneath their flight decks for a variety of offensive and defensive weapons platforms.
I do believe there are currently 4 retired and mothballed aircraft carriers as well as those which have been transformed into museum relics. These can be dry docked and re-engineered and modernized. It would only take a hand full of years.
Then by changing the official designation of these old and stricken aircraft carriers into a new warship category. It will not affect the federal law of maintaining ten aircraft carriers. I think that is key. Creating a new class of warship which meets the needs of future combat and neutralizing the inherent weakness of those thin skinned hulls of the new class of warships.
==Poor or Unknown Reliability==
Added on 16 May 2018:
Just as the US Navy been dealt with another embarrassment of their Ford Class Aircraft Carriers. The Chinese navy launched their own home built Aircraft Carrier.

I wrote a reply to the National Interest(NI) story and they deleted it or the story was closed to comment after a month. Typically NI usually deletes me and/or bans me. Without explanation. Go figure. I think I get too close to secret stuff.
The Ford Class Aircraft carrier must go back into dock for major repairs. Apparently some official Navy Brass people say it was suppose to work and every knows it doesn't. Who is lying? The USA has an Aircraft carrier which cannot fight. But, to the US Navy's credit. The Ford is not supposed to be ready until 2020. So the Ford is a plane launching cruise ship. Yea, I'm being insulting. I'm sorry.
The question from NI was "Are US aircraft carriers obsolete? The answer is yes. But why? It is because the definition of what an aircraft carrier is has not evolved. It is much like the naval battleship is it obsolete? The answer is yes. But why? Because those who are in charge of naval things refused to redefine what a post WW2 battleship should be and can be.
The next generation of aircraft carriers from the USA should be a merging of a multipurpose missile cruiser and an aircraft carrier. The next generation of aircraft carriers must be able to defend itself from thousands drones coming in from a variety of vectors.
The aircraft carrier must be able to conduct 3 waves of attacks. #1 suicidal drones of attrition with and without their own cruise missiles @500 units. #2 cruise missile launches @600 units, #3 Plane attacks while still maintaining 75 units.
I'm troubled by the smallness of the beam at the water line at 134 feet. It seems to narrow especially if you add all of the new weapons and Radar capabilities and another new a1b. Add another 21+ foot 30 ton screw to a new width.
Fighter plane problems means restarting new costly productions lines and reengineering of the F22, F/A18, F16, F15 all with the new PW F135 engines used in the F35. Then selling the new planes to friends. Do not sell anything to Turkey or India.
The US has not planned for the defense of their Aircraft carriers. This is easily seen in the new definition of what a frigate and missile cruisers are today. The USA is absent of frigates and Cruisers are set to retire soon. The American Destroyers are basically large old frigates as defined by the French. The cruisers are now mini cruisers as the Russians set the new definition with their Kirov Class Battlecruiser. Don't get me wrong the US military will and can still kick your teeth in. But, all of the equipment is getting old and worn out. With nary a replacement. The Chinese are building for war and so are the Russians. The Russians are going a step further with plans for invasion of Alaska and portions of western canada. Maybe even down into Washington state.
So USA war in 2026? Maybe maybe not. Everyone should negotiate for peace and friendship. Nations should practice the purple words below. But, they are not everyone who can build their war machines are doing so. I do think war is in the future as well as the extinction of the human species. Will it happen in 2026? The date does not matter. What matters is that every nation is building for war and not building for peace. There is a difference.

Here is a modern day battleship. Off the shelf products and A1B's. It is doable although all RADAR power outputs must be more than doubled.

I have been thinking about this for some time. I am still on the frigate bandwagon. But, if frigates are to be nearly as large as the Burkes. Then just build the Burkes. I think building the twenty of Flight III Burkes is a good quick idea. While at the same time developing the Flight IV Burke. Then figuring out how to upgrade the older Burke's to III and maybe IV if it ever develops or becomes uncancelled. Then build twenty of the flight IV's.
While at the same time modernizing all Ticonderoga-class guided-missile cruisers to the new standards. This must be done very soon as in 2019. The oldest of Missile Cruisers are set to retire. Thus, creating a huge and unmanageable blaring hole in Naval offensive and defensive capabilities. I think pulling the three hulls out of Philly if they are still present. Could make a good first start. maybe? Years of neglect in the salt is a hard way for a forgotten navy ship to die. Even old heros want to live to fight again.
What else is in the Philly yard? What about other places?

It seems that the US Navy is working on evolution of their ships. A new Destroyer and a new Cruiser class shall be created. The US Navy also needs to add more attack submarines. The US Navy and Airforce also needs plans to update all of the engines in new planes built. You can make the F135 engines fit in every fighter plane. This should be done along with additional structural engineering to the airframe.
==================
To avert all of the coming bad and sad prophecies. We each must decide to do the following everyday, every hour, every minute and every second.
