The Northrop Grumman-built Aegis guided missile destroyer Gravely (DDG 107) has successfully completed its maiden sea trial with the US Navy in the Gulf of Mexico.

During the sea trial, DDG 107 successfully completed tests for the ship’s communications and propulsion systems, conducted by Northrop and the navy’s Board of Inspection and Survey.

USS Gravely is a multi-mission destroyer that can carry out operations including peacekeeping missions, crisis management, sea control and power projection.

Equipped with offensive and defensive weapons, the ship will be capable of fighting air, surface and subsurface battles simultaneously.
