The caption on the photo misidentifies the ship as a guided missile destroyer.

The navy has been very inconsistent in its naming/numbering conventions for a long time now.

The US is down to 11 Cruisers, and there has been a significant effort to decommission them entirely. So, this ship may not remain in service for very long, making the renaming kind of hollow.

The surface navy is in total disarray and has no idea what the future is going to look like.
