Yep, that was back in '90 or '91 on the USS Thach.
Stationed on 3 FFGs during my 20 yrs in.
I was onboard the USS Crommelin FFG37 around 5 or 6 years ago, when the FFG divestment team came around and removed the ol' one arm MK13 missile launcher we had.
After the FFGs got neutered, FC's were pretty bored, only the CAS radar, that lil 76mm gun and CIWS.
