The ship is the only “double-ended” DLG class—fitted with missile launchers fore-and-aft, the first and only american naval ship designed without a main gun battery with which to engage in ship-vs-ship or shore bombardment.
The first three ships were constructed at Bath Iron Works, the next two at New York Shipbulding Corp, and the rest at Puget Sound Bridge and Dry Dock Company, Todd Shipyards, San Pedro, CA, San Francisco Naval Shipyard and Puget Sound Naval Shipyard.All Leahy class ships were modernized again in the late 1980's New Threat Upgrade program. This program added advanced air search and track radars, The Leahy class was major cold war us navy cruisers in service to the early 1990's.

CGN25 USS Bainbridge nuclear-powered missile cruisers

The USS BAINBRIDGE was commissioned on October 6, 1962, in Quincy, Mass. The ship was commissioned as the world's first nuclear powered frigate. The ship was equiped with state of the art electronics and communications suites. Bainbridge (DLGN-25) was virtually identical to the Leahy-class except for the replacement of her four 1200 psi boilers with two D2G reactors. The nuclear escort was equipped with larger Terrier missile magazines; twin 3-inch/50 gun mounts were specified instead of single mounts; and there were no reloads provided for the ASROC launcher
