thats it

2020-11-05 05:05:58 UTC  

Oh ok, I didn't remember the round the gun used off the top of my head.

2020-11-05 05:06:18 UTC  

yeah

2020-11-05 05:06:42 UTC  

357mm if its a gun caliber, i assume its something mounted on smaller warships

2020-11-05 05:07:07 UTC  

i'ver personally never seen a 357mm gun but thats what i assume

2020-11-05 05:08:21 UTC  

If you try and Google 357mm gun, Google keeps trying to correct it.

2020-11-05 05:18:15 UTC  

The Schwerer Gustav 80cm. Fired once... at Russia.... because that was the only target big enough to hit with it.

2020-11-05 05:23:27 UTC  

Didn't germans fire those railway cannons at Paris a few times

2020-11-05 05:23:51 UTC  

I thought so

2020-11-05 05:24:06 UTC  

I think a couple large bore cannons in WWI

2020-11-05 05:24:13 UTC  

Thanks alpha that's funny

2020-11-05 05:24:29 UTC  

But not that behemoth.

2020-11-05 05:24:52 UTC  

Yeah they where smaller bore

2020-11-05 05:25:00 UTC  

Yes they are literally called the Paris gun

here

2020-11-05 05:25:37 UTC  

28.3 cm compared to 80 cm...

2020-11-05 05:25:40 UTC  

Sexy...its a cannon

2020-11-05 05:26:16 UTC  

The shells initially used had a diameter of 216 mm (8.5 in) and a length of 960 mm (38 in).

2020-11-05 05:27:36 UTC  

I remember seeing a planned warship of a destroyer sized that had one of those for coastal bombardment

2020-11-05 05:28:04 UTC  

that would be impressive

2020-11-05 05:28:11 UTC  

The Wunderwaffen ideas were insane... look up the Ratte tank

2020-11-05 05:28:38 UTC  

It won't work but interesting to see it flip in the ocean

2020-11-05 05:28:48 UTC  

I have

2020-11-05 05:29:16 UTC  

Awesome, but horribly impractical. Besides, imagine maintaining that.

2020-11-05 05:29:27 UTC  

Tsar tank is just as crazy

2020-11-05 05:29:58 UTC  

yes it is

2020-11-05 05:30:07 UTC  

They remind me of the wheel tanks from Attack of the Clones

2020-11-05 05:30:38 UTC  

Fun Fact: The shells of the Paris gun were the first manmade objects to reach the stratosphere

2020-11-05 05:31:09 UTC  

Huh, I guess you learn something new every day.

2020-11-05 05:31:10 UTC  

Stalins Super sub is crazy mix of ballistic submarine with World War 2 technology

2020-11-05 05:31:36 UTC  

i got tons of fun facts

2020-11-05 05:32:25 UTC  

I thought one of the ww1 balloons did that before the Paris gun but I could be incorrect on that

2020-11-05 05:32:57 UTC  

nope it was the paris gun

2020-11-05 05:33:42 UTC  

Sub used a version of the V3 or V2 Rocket to possibly launch a nuclear warhead

2020-11-05 05:33:47 UTC  

The Germans love their wierd weapons, that's for sure.

2020-11-05 05:33:58 UTC  

SOVIETS too

2020-11-05 05:34:00 UTC
