That must be the world's shallowest barbette
And really short ranged, since they're aiming through the ranging hoods

Silly 5.5-inch gun question. I like the fact that you are using a gun mount similar to the one used aboard the Yubari. At 50-tons for a pair of 5.5's (according to Campbell), they are half the weight of the Mk.XXI twins aboard the Leanders. If weight was a major issue, wouldn't you prefer the twin-s...
