If a naval gun like this were to misfire or jam, how long would it take to fix the problem? Is there any way to quickly access the internals to fix the issue?

get a petty officer 3rd class with a broom to fix it
If it misfires the crew inside become chunky salsa and get posthumous medals.

Yes, they can be accessed quickly to fix a jam or misfire, but because it's an auto-loader it's much less likely to have those problems.

See that hatch on the side of the turret? You open that up and fuck about with the mechanism until the jam has been cleared.

I want you to take a look at that hatch that's right in the middle of your picture. And then I want you to ask yourself "I wonder why they would put a hatch on an automated turret?".

They just beat the living fuck out of it with a hammer till it starts shooting again.

>these cannons have crews inside
>>31204784
this is the most likely answer

>crew inside
What is this, WW2?

Hours. Because SOP it to point that thing in a safe direction and wait for an hour before fucking with it encase of possible hang fire.
