Default Re: Icons and lbms

I'm not sure if DD(X) 155mm AGS is in your 2020 mod. It's certainly worth looking into.

Some notes for implementation; this is NOT your normal 155mm shell. It may have a bore diameter of 155mm, but the designers made the shell significantly LONGER, making it perform like an 8" shell:

155 mm/62 (6.1") AGS
260 lb shell weight, with 23.8 lbs burster charge

8"/55 (20.3 cm) Marks 12 and 15
260 lb shell weight, with 21.3 lbs burster charge
