As regards the thickness of the Cole's hull, I really have no idea on that, and it would probably depend on the section of the ship.

But I imagine it would be thinner than an Aegis cruiser since speed and maneuverability is their essential defense against incoming anti-ship missiles and torpedoes, with their 12 phalanx point defense stations for close in threats that make it through the missiles.
