What's the pros and cons of using land based military tech on naval ships?
>>33442334
>Pros
Cheaper than a catapult.
>Cons
Americans make fun of you on /k/.
>>33442334
>pros
standardized with other logistics
>cons
retrofitting of ship and equipment
>>33442334
On the rare occasion using the same weapon system, nothing.
>>33442334
Land based tech isn't going to last long. They aren't designed to deal with the salty conditions.
>Pros
You already have it
It's cheaper than some custom solution
It's quick to implement
>Cons
Now it's hogging your helipad
It'll probably slide off into the sea when some drunk sailor manages to undo the tiedowns
Its a test you retards.
Absolutely nothing.

Cool af

What I find amusing is that the USA has essentially done the opposite to the Russians.

One of the cons is that you typically put a lot of effort on making it saltwater resistant
>>33443955
THIS..Unless it was for riverine purpose. Using equipment without making it saltwater-corrosion resistant surely will spell an increasing cost just to maintain them.

Pros: unification goes in every field.
Cons: you have to adjust it for naval conditions.
It's not like it's something new.

Since when AEGIS ashore is a highly mobile self-sustaining platform?

Just don't go to salty seas then??
German experiment of putting PzH2000 155mm SPG turret on frigate. The experiment fails.

Here's another one from Romania.

This, salt water fucks shit up quick
North Korean Navy example. During the 2002 Battle of Yellow Sea. One of this antiquated ship using a 85mm shell managed to score a critical direct hit on more modern South Korea patrol ship.

Neat.

>The experiment fails.
Why? Germans cannot into river monitors?
I feel like it is easier to put a naval system on land than vice versa
>>33444749
Corrosion from sea water and heavier than expected recoil disrupting the ship electronics. Plus the turret and mounting system cannot stand against rough sea condition.

Btw this particular one called MAK-11 Vyuga has had laser armament since mid 80s.
