The first five CGs were designed as Aegis superstructure on Spruance class hulls for anti-aircraft operations. They could not fire vertical Tomahawks and were retired, as were all Spruance class destroyers. Modernization is to compensate for lack of new construction as the cruiser class is exceeding its 25 year lifespan Budget cuts discussed January 2012 call for retiring the seven oldest cruisers and increasing the number of destroyers. ** Four to Decomm 31Mar'13, but retained under the National Defense Authorization Act for 2013. ADC =to be modernized to Air Defense Commander
