The electrical grid on the ship will also be upgraded from the 450-volt configuration to a 4,160-volt grid which will lead to additional design changes.

Made me smile. My grandfather worked at Bath Iron Works. I used to love going to see my grandmother (my grandfather passed away before I was born) and go by there on the way to Woolwich.

30x more powerful than the SPY-1, eh?

Is that 30x the ERP or processing power, or what?
