@@bluecollarcanuck and the Russians have combat data of the likely adversary that they would be facing with this high caliber guns, yes? Do the pirates use surface skimming ultrasonic ASM's now? Just because you make your gun bigger doesn't actually mean it's a good idea. Upgrading isnt always about increasing the caliber and most STS fighting is done over the horizon using ASM's. Deck guns serve mostly the role of providing rapid and accurate point fire against small assault boats and air-threats. Having a bigger gun for this purpose isnt all that great, as it means smaller muzzle-velocity, bigger mounts, higher recoil impulse etc.. The OTO Melara has stood the test of time because it just works in the modern ship arms industry centered mostly around missile warfare. Anything bigger would have to be able to perform up to or even above par with the 76mm to be even considerable. To me, making a bigger deck gun is just waste of time. Over the ranges that expected STS warfare is going to happen, a deck gun is near useless and even at shorter ranges a missile would be far more accurate, deadly and harder to intercept. The nuclear arms race wasnt just about measuring dicks. It was a very carefully calculated effort to produce enough arsenal to overwhelm any possible enemy terminal strike defence systems and assure mutual destruction in case of a received attack. This was true on both sides. What i WOULD call a dick measuring contest is the race to the moon

That would be amazing. If it works like stated then they should slap it on for self defense on every warship. I feel like CIWIS 20mm isn't enough and those are direct kinetic kills. A 76mm would allow further engagement range and could carry tungsten flak with a computer programing the rounds to fire as they leave the barrel like the Skynext system. (Think that is the one. Seen one take out a drone swarm in a single burst.) Don't know why the US doesn't use flak. No one has ever stated why but if a hypersonic missile is coming at you surely even small tungsten pellets would wreck the missile. The velocities involved would be enormous, and its a lot easier to hit something with a flak wall then it is with kinetic kills. The CIWIS has no margin for error.

@@mwnciboo The Mark 71 8" /55 Major Caliber Lightweight Gun was reported to have been tested with anti air shells. It had a rate of fire of 12 rounds per minute and was light and compact enough to be installed on a destroyer, USS Hull. The Mark 16 semi automatic 8" gun also reportedly had some anti air rounds tested although they were not used in practice. It had a rate of fire of 10 rounds per minute. This system was heavy and bulky and used on some cruisers. Both of these guns had a theoretical dual purpose although not designated as such. With modern radar, fire control systems, gun laying machinery, automation, and shell designs a dual purpose 8" (203mm) gun is feasible. These days we would call them multipurpose guns, with anti air as one potential feature. A modern gun would be light, accurate, compact, move quickly, and have high rate of fire with few crew required to operate and maintain it. I would suggest having such multipurpose 8 inch guns in a dual mount turret on a new cruiser design. This could potentially be able to fire a total of 20-24 rounds per minute. An MRSI burst of around 6 shells is probably feasible with two guns. That should be plenty for shore bombardment missions. The primary weapon system would still of course be numerous VLS. Other air defense systems would also be included of course, the anti air mode for the 8 inch guns would just add an extra layer. Well suited for use against drone swarms for example.

I love how ship and air weapons like this have a huge amount of computers and sensors attached to them. I was watching another video of Greece's Roussen Class and was sincerely amused at the how loaded down with weapons it is, including one of these at bow.

You look at WW2 and you will see that more than a few times the big guns from battleships were used on inland targets because they could reach so far. I think WW2 was like the last war where you had an actual ship on a ship, the battleship that is, battles. WW2 was where aircraft carriers really came into their own and proved how dominant they could really be.

I love some of the mosterous naval guns on WW2 battleships, used as offshore artillery bombardment in the likes of D-Day. The thought of firing a shell of such size and weight such phenomenal distances is insane.

Italian ships don't need big guns, they just need to be able to go full speed astern!

Turkey is a long term and mass user of this gun. Turkey ordered this gun for its new frigates and corvettes, Italy gave horrendous prices with delivery dates of infinitiy, which impacted Turkey's frigate program. Turkey produced the same gun in two years, deployed it in its frigates, and now selling it six countries with the fraction of its price. As soon as Turkey annouced that it devoloping the gun, italians showed up, offered very convinient prices with reasonasle delivery dates. These are all implicit sanctions disguised in different forms, exagarated prices, very long delivery dates etc. Thank to italy, Turkey has its own naval gun and now developping its 127mm version of it. Canada did the same for CATs camera systems for drones, now Turkey is producing and selling it.

Just an update for you: Australia no longer has this weapon in its inventory. The last two were transferred to Chile aboard the former HMAS's Melbourne and Newcastle when they were sold to Chile. The RAN is now standardised on the 125mm Mk-54 mod 0 gun of the United States, these weapons equip the Anzac class Frigates (8) and the Hobart class Destroyers (3). There is one Oto left in the navy, it is currently shore based at West Head naval training school (the navy's gun training school, based in Flinders, Victoria), but with the retirement of the FFG's, this weapon is now in the process of decommissioning and being sent the the naval storage site of Spectle Island.
