Well, if somebody is pointed a twin-barrel 23mm anti-aircraft gun at me, then I'd call that a pretty strong opponent...[:D]
Bah. Any calibre less than 40mm is for wimps. [;)][:'(]

We had all kinds of stuff to play with. Coarse/fine synchro chains connected to a 4.5in Mk5 gun turret, dropped and replaved a breech block on 4.5 Mk6, paralleling generators (even did that on the Galatea at the tender age of 18). Oh yeah, Seacat directors too.
