Re: OT: Battleships vs. Carriers...

One quick note on range.  DARPA (Defense Advanced Research Projects
Agency)
developed 11" sub-caliber rounds for 16" guns in the late 1980's.  They
had
a range of   100 nm and delievered 248 M46 submunitions.  They were also
GPS/IMU guided.

If I had been aware of everything in that article one month ago, it
would
have gone much worse for the anti-battleship crowd.
