25-Inch Naval Cannon

Main Article: 25-Inch Naval Cannon

The 25-Inch Naval Cannon is much like the U.S. 16-Inch Naval Cannon that was in service for many years. The key difference is size. In being so large, it requires several extra supports to even be fired. It fires a 4,250 Pound projectile at a maximum range of about 150 statute miles.
