  • What is the thickness of the hull of a naval destroyer ship?


  • FYI - Some hull thicknesses also vary from area to area on the same type of vessel and some even have double hulls.

  • I realize that both questions are very similiar and am happy that we are working on one of them let alone both. I would submit that with the answers presented we can call this question closed.


  • Hello Ships1,
    Since I answered your other question of the same topic, might want to close or cancel this one, so you won't be charged unnecessarily. I posted in this clarification box so you will receive an email notification. Thank you.


  • I would offer this clarification in that I would like the hull thickness of the Fletcher class destroyers. Hopefully that will be of help. Dan Greenwood


  • Hello Ships1,
    Whoops, I missed out "you" before "might want to close or cancel this one", so I meant to say that you can close or cancel this question. Thanks.


  • I am looking for the thickness of the old world war II destroyers hull.Thank you Dan Greenwood


  • I am looking for the thickness of the steel used for the outer skin of a Naval Destroyer. I know it is thin but would like to know the exact thickness. I should think that the Naval Department would be able to help, or the builder of ships such as the Portsmouth Va shipyard.


  • Hello Ships1,
    Would you be looking for the hull thickness of a particular class? DIfferent classes of destroyers can have different hull thicknesses.
