Sejong the Great
The "Sejong the Great"-class destroyers are often compared to the "Arleigh Burke" and "Atago" classes because they utilize the AN/SPY-1 multi-function radar, have similar propulsion and capabilities. One notable difference between the "Sejong the Great"-class ships and "Arleigh Burke"s is the number of VLS cells. Destroyers of the "Sejong the Great"-class have a capacity of 128 missiles, as opposed to 96 on the "Arleigh Burke" class and the Japanese "Atago"-class destroyers. The "Sejong the Great" class is thus one of the most heavily armed ships in the world, with even greater missile capacity than the Chinese People's Liberation Army Navy Type 055 destroyer (112 VLS cells), or the U.S. Navy guided missile cruiser (122 VLS cells), and considering only surface ships is surpassed only by the with 352 missiles (entire missile load). The four American Ohio-class submarines converted to guided-missile configuration carry 154 cruise missiles each. Another similarity to "Arleigh Burke" Flight IIA and "Atago"-class destroyers is the presence of full facilities for two helicopters, a feature missing from earlier "Arleigh Burke" and s.
