Fire is real....and I think in my time at sea, practically every ship I sailed on had at least one real fire onboard....from a DG that 'blew up' on CHA the morning we sailed for WUPS in 00, MON with a deflagrating ROD unit, the oily rag waste bin outside the torpedo mag, the helo 'chip detect'...
Wikipedia is my 'friend' sometimes.
40mm L/70 mount - 2400Kg, or 4800Kg gun and Field Carriage.
I have found another site (navweaps.com) that indicates that it's 2870 Kg for the 1958 SAK Naval mounting.

BUY ALL THE SAME. PLEASE.
This should be a lesson - no - a mantra.
Simplifying logistics, training and operation is a good thing in a time that the Navy is short on all of the above.
And yet, they still seem to be advancing. The Ukrainians seem to be conducting a defense in depth that should be highly commended. That said, they're still defending...and it seems still falling back.
Hopefully that turns around.
Yes! She's the Bonnie!
There might be a few other aircraft there which don't actually belong...the things I do to amuse myself.
(Can you imagine a CF-100 with folding wings on a Carrier deck? LOL)
From what I'm seeing, the problem is less about the individual systems - the pumps, the engines, the toasters...and more about the structure of the ships.
When a hull is designed to last 25-30 years or so, and they're now at that age, and being asked to serve another 10-15 years...that's...a...
It's a Mig-31 Firefox.
:-)
There's a few things there which don't actually belong.
A-4, CF-18, CF-35B, Swordfish, X-Wing (in the hangar) Avenger, E2C, Cyclone, and a CF-100.
Always fun when folks notice them mixed in.
You should have seen MON on the way out the door on the weekend...it was notable...alas, when you've only got so many person hours, and so many things that actually need repair/maintenance, I can see how rusticles have less meaning.
What is the threat?
Is it a few RUS subs up north?
Or.
Is it 500+ PLAN warships in their current active fleet (according to Wiki...) with double digit new ships coming online each year?
What would be a better tool for dealing with a lot of surface ships than a bunch of Nuc Subs?
MK.48's for...
Apparently that 'turtle tank' did survive the attack.
It was then geo-located by one of it's crew posing for a picture with his 'local dollie' and it then drew a (HIMARS?) strike that destroyed it, and several other tanks in the same building/garage.
Addition -
Looking at the list of 'stuff' that goes into Air Control/Supremacy/Dominance/superiority, the F-35 can do a LOT of things.
Wild Weasel aircraft to knock down Air Defenses
EW Aircraft to plot and jam the AD
Bombers or strike aircraft to hit ground targets
Fighters to protect the...
