That image is an A/B class destroyer, not KDX-lll.

No, it really is a KDX-III. Note the Goalkeeper CIWS, which the US does not use. The article says they used the A. Burke as a basis. I must say, though, the number of VLS tubes appears to not match the article.

WP:MilHist Assessment

A very nice start. I'm not sure if there is much more to be said, particularly as (if I'm reading this right) no ships of this class have been completed, let alone seen action. But it might be nice to have some non-prose Specifications, either in just a regular text section, or in an infobox of some sort. LordAmeth 14:24, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

Class name

The Koreans certainly will not call the ship "Sejong the Great" as an english title is very unlikely: According to the article the name is 세종대왕. Can anyone provide a proper transcription of this? --Gunter.krebs 10:42, 16 August 2007 (UTC)

"King Sejong the Great" appears to be official. Please refer to President Roh Moo-hyun's speeches on the launch of the King Sejong the Great: http://english.president.go.kr/cwd/en/archive/archive_view.php?meta_id=en_speeches&id=f518c319364cffb45cef498b --Bin2k1 11:10, 7 October 2007 (UTC)
