It is illegal to discharge in port. Is the disaster-stricken area going to provide sewage services? What about clean water for the ship? It is inadvisable to for the ship's water generation systems to make water in port. Is the disaster-stricken area going to provide clean water for the ship's crew? How about security requirements as the ship is close to many desperate people? How many lights for tent cities run on Zumwalt's 4,160 volt power?

The great thing about larger bores is you can use sabots to make smaller and higher velocity projectiles as is done with the 120mm Rhienmetal smoothbore that equips the M1 Abrams tank. Would you prefer to be armed with .45 Automatic Colt Pistol or 5.7x28? Personally, I prefer a good .45 automatic by my side. Of course, 9mm is cheaper for shooting plates! As for your, "way things are progressing." This is false. Infantry Fighting Vehicles are mounting larger guns than they did 30 years ago. Artillery has averaged out to around 155mm, but weight, size, and ammunition storage are onsiderations, as I have discussed earlier. There is little to no movement back to 105mm or to 75mm pack howitzers. Likewise, tank guns are holding at the 120mm-130mm range for those reasons I mentioned. Naval guns appear to be in the 105mm to 130mm range with space and weight being a primary factor. Just look at USS Zumwalt and how big it is to accommodate 155mm guns! Smaller guns are used, again, when weight, size, and ammunition storage are considerations. |
