Designed for multi-role operations, these ships are equipped with sophisticated radar and missile systems, primarily the Sea Viper missile system, to protect against aerial threats. Each Type 45 destroyer has a displacement of around 7,350 tons and can reach speeds of over 30 knots. They are designed to operate in various environments, including anti-air, anti-surface, and anti-submarine warfare, making them versatile assets in modern naval operations.
