The real USS Arleigh Burke (DDG-51) is the lead ship of the Arleigh Burke-class guided-missile destroyers, named for Admiral Arleigh A. Burke.

The sprue count and part distribution provide ample components for a detailed exterior representation of the ship. Included decals cover national markings and builders can enhance realism with aftermarket upgrades. Knowing the kit dimensions and parts total is helpful for planning transport and display.
