The 5" naval gun is actually low velocity (short barrel) and ammo are, designed for AA, land force support and to fight DD with smaller caliber...
lwd, I'll ignore your insulting posts.
It is much easier to insult, than to actucally think. If you don't stop insulting, I'll have to ignore your posts also. The point is that the...
Going from 4" to 6" is asinine, that's what the RN did. Producing thousands of 5" guns and shells and hauling them around the world is much easier...
