As I implied in my other post, this class of naval rifle would easily qualify a vessel as a "super-battleship" if guns are used as the sole measuring criterion.

Haven't we tromped over this topic time and again? Seriously the battleship is dead, an outmoded concept. You might as well talk about a modern suit of knight's armour, a laser-guided trebuchet, stealth Zeppelin bombers, modern sailing warships. Technology moves forward, methods of waging war and delivering destruction improve. What was once cutting edge becomes obsolete junk. Just as Sopwith Camels ain't coming back the battleship isn't going to either.

Why do you insist on opening your mouth and proving that you don't know what you're talking about?

It was on the BBC world service at about 3:30 GMT a week ago I think.

All I know is that they are being worked on in the US somewhere.

God's Blood :x Can't you guys even stay on topic for once? Is there an attention deficit problem here. So yes, Hood is quite correct. If ever the Battleship ever had any support, it died the day the Prince of Wales was dispatched; therafter it could only survive with air cover, and for all the hype the last generation of Battleships hardly proved themselves in combat, being too expenisve to risk: Nuff said.
