Btw what is the comparative layout armament for the US destroyers?

DDG-51 ARLEIGH BURKE-class has two VLS (90 missiles, Standard anti-air, and Tomahawk ground-attack), 8 Harpoon anti-ship, 6 torpedo launchers, a 5-inch gun and a pair of CIWS

Those are the initial Arleigh Burkes. The later, Flight IIA, to which standard all the Burkes since DDG 79 have been built (24 vessels to date), have a slightly different fit:

96 VLS cells, no harpoons, no CIWS (replaced by 4-6 ESSM quad packs in the VLS tubes after DDG 84), the five inch guns, the 6 MK-46 torpedoes, and of course, the main reason for the new design, two SH-60 helos housed in the hangars that were built into the new vessels.
