A gun of unknown dimensions that can reach out, with precision, 1000 miles while being mobile - er - movable - er - relocatable.
My sense is, given the discussions about super-sizing rocket-assisted 155s, that we could be looking at a 227 mm cannon employed as a reusable booster for a GMRLS scale round carrying a Small Diameter Bomb submunition.
A warhead, stuffed in a bomb, stuffed in a missile, stuffed in a cannon..... A Strategic Long Range Turducken - A Slurducken
Happy Thanksgiving.
The art of the possible.
