- In the discussion of "impressive artilleries", some have picked
- the G5, G6, etc. from South Africa. One of the reasons given
- is that they can shoot very far. I would appreciate that if
- anyone can describe what makes these guns great.
-
- The TV program (Frontline?) on the guy who was behind these
- guns did not talk much about the technology. For example, it
- didn't explain much about why these guns can shoot further than
- others. What gives a gun extensive range? What prevents others
- from coping these great guns? Then can't be as complicated as
- an F-14, can they?
-
- Another related question: is the Iraqi super gun project real?
- What is the theory that it's going to work?
-
- Thanks in advance
