Abstract

ABSTRACTDDG‐51 is the first naval combatant constructed with a Collective Protection System (CPS) included in the base design. This paper presents a critical assessment of the performance of the CPS on this ship to date, based on the shipbuilder's involvement in design, construction and operation. Design and operational issues are discussed as they pertain to the three main aspects of the CPS: filtration, pressurization and controlled access. Recommendations are made for improving the operational viability of the CPS on all DDG‐51 class ships.
