Hello there everyone,
I was recently reading the suggestion section of the forums and discovered that someone
wanted to know all the gun ranges for Navy field, so since there are no guides or listings
of ranges i decided to start this thread and make a few gun range guides one per nation.
The setup is pretty straight forward the measurement values are simply each little tick in
your range finding. I will be adding more guides as I complete them so keep checking. So
far KM is done next on my list is UK or US
Setup
This test was done on the same ship, nothing changed except for the gun and the ammo. All
range finding was done in test mission at the exact same place of the map. please take
into consideration these are the base ranges, kite and rushing ranges differ from those
present
These measurements were taken using the Navyfield Guide line ranges. that being said each
little dot on your guidelines is equal to 1 point of range, and each green ball is a total
of 20 little dots
KM Guns Singles
KM Twin Guns
KM Triple Guns
