“Dead Admiral Class” also known as the “Ayatolla Class” because the 4-ship package was purchased by the Shah, but never delivered due to the Iranian Revolution.
The other ships in the Kidd-class were named after Admirals Callaghan and Scott, who were killed during the Night Battle of Guadalcanal (Admiral Scott was killed by not-so-friendly fire from Admiral Callaghan's flagship) and Admiral Chandler, who was killed when a kamikaze struck his heavy cruiser flagship off the Philippines.
