The CG(X) would have used the IPS electric propulsion system of "Zumwalt", as of the FY09 budget estimates in February 2008. "Zumwalt"s gas turbines are capable of generating , and that was thought barely sufficient for the radar and future weapon systems on the CG(X) - the working assumption is that the entire ship's electric load, including a Theater Ballistic Missile Defense radar will consume 31 megawatts (MW). In July 2008, Young said that "for the most capable radar suites under consideration, the ["Zumwalt"] hull cannot support the radar".
