The Army's Mind-Bending 1,000-Mile Cannon Is Coming. Could It Bring Back Battleships?
The article title is a little bit of a tease..... And it leads off with a picture of the Iowa firing a broadside.....
But the meat of the article does review a new Army Strategic Long Range Cannon (SLRC) and how if it does work, would it make sense to put it on a ship.
It does not campaign for bringing back any of the four Iowa class currently afloat. But does lay out, broadly, a ship based around the SLRC.
