The stern features a long, shallow run aft for the ship's propeller shafts and twin rudders. Note the grey-painted twin doors for the boat bay in the transom at the ship's stern.

A large skeg is built into the after section's underbody, aiding directional stability and providing structural strength for the hull when it's out of the water.

The stern section still awaits installation of the rudders, propellers and propeller shafts.

The tumblehome hull is quite apparent in this view from aft.

Seen from above the ship's flight deck, this view looks forward. The white construction shed at left covers the hangar doors, while the large window at right is the ship's flight control center. Two Mark 46 30mm guns will be installed on top of the after deckhouse.

The bridge windows are more visible here. Note the many recesses in the superstructure for radars and sensors.

The forward and after decks are lined with vertical launchers able to handle a variety of missiles. The deck-edge scaffolding here is just outside the launchers, which are embedded in the side of the ship.

Construction sheds still clutter the flight deck.

The doors in the transom open into a large boat handling bay, featuring a boat ramp and storage able to accommodate two 11-meter rigid hull inflatable boats.

Aft, the Zumwalt features a hangar and large flight deck.

Radars and other sensors are embedded in the superstructure. The rectangular holes are intakes for the ship's gas turbines. The main exhaust is in the top of the structure.

The deckhouse above the bridge windows is a composite-material structure, built at Gulfport, Mississippi by Ingalls Shipbuilding and barged north to be installed in Maine. A similar structure is being built for the Michael Monsoor, but the Lyndon B. Johnson will have a steel structure built at Bath.
