Traslo Posted May 9, 2022 Share Posted May 9, 2022 Historically, the royal navy managed to get 18" guns onto 6000 ton monitor ships in WW1, but that seems basically impossible on any ship design of relatively close size. Will we see changes to the 18" guns or British ships to allow this historical meme? Or is it already possible and I've just happened to miss the exact hull that would facilitate this?

Littorio Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 I think they said somewhere that they won't do monitors. Or at least if they ever do, I don't think we will see it for awhile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasn't exactly an unused ship. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps they are waiting for an expanded set of operations that make sense for them. Deploying monitors with a battle fleet would not happen very often. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
