Still a better weapon platform than the LCS.

Dynamite guns are an interesting concept. Potential ad hoc artillery for anyone who has the technical know-how to launch a pumpkin pneumatically.

Fascinating. I am a naval buff, but never heard of this. Thanks for posting.

If the Navy resurrects the concept, the vessel should be christened the Jimmie Walker.

She was also relatively small for a cruiser given the unique armament. However, her firing range was poor at a maximum of one mile with the larger, 500-pound shellsUsing compressed air to toss a 500 lb projectile one mile is an impressive feat. Unfortunately, one mile is nowhere near a long enough effective range for a naval gun.
