	Spruance class destroyer - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		The Spruance-class destroyer was developed as a replacement for a large number of World War II-built Allen M. Sumner- and Gearing-class destroyers, and was the primary destroyer built for the U.S. Navy during the 1970s.
		This configuration was so successful that the entire hull and physical plant of the Spruance class was used unchanged for the later Kidd-class destroyers, and a slightly lengthened version of the hull was used for the Ticonderoga-class cruisers.
		The entire class of thirty ships was contracted with a single shipyard to facilitate mass construction on 23 June 1970 although labor and technical problems delayed construction.

	Robert Dean Stethem, SW2, United States Navy
		Although Mughniyah has not been implicated in the recent attacks in the United States, his whereabouts since September 11 have provoked intense speculation centering on reports that he has returned from Iran to his native Lebanon in an effort to escape a U.S. manhunt.
		How seriously the United States pursues its old nemesis may be one measure of the breadth of U.S. intentions to wage a global war beyond the search for bin Laden and the bombing of Afghanistan.
		Stethem, a former Navy Seabee, was killed in June 1985 during the hijacking of a TWA jet in Lebanon.

		The Arleigh Burke class are among the largest destroyers ever built (larger is the Ticonderoga class of cruisers, which were constructed as destroyers and subsequently redesignated as cruisers), and certainly among the most powerful.
		In September 2005, the Australian Government decided upon using the Arleigh Burke design for their new Sea 4000 project in which three new destroyers are to be built for the Royal Australian Navy.
		Although no information regarding naming of the ships is publicly available, credible sources indicate the names of the ships will be that of previous destroyers, the HMAS Brisbane and HMAS Hobart, with the addition of one more name, quite possibly HMAS Australia.
