[QUOTE="Bart B, post: 568862, member: 5302"] There was a project in the US Navy during the late '60's to make the center gun in one or two battleship 16-inch gun turrets a smooth bore barrel. It would shoot Rocket Assisted Projectiles 100 plus miles. None was ever prototyped as far as I know, but something similar is covered in the link below: [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_High_Altitude_Research_Project]Super High Altitude Research Project - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia[/url] [/QUOTE]
