Beschreibung
A brief preface lays out purpose and outlook on cannons and guns in the future. Chapter 1 proposes a star-shape barrel formation for guns in the future, using un-tapered barrels but supported by rings and triangular struts between the star flanges. We discuss segmented guns, setup and breakdown and related matters. These matters include supporting the long barrels by spars, cables, types of ammunition. Chapter 2 goes into accelerants and what the problems are and possible solution. I even posit a dry ice charge rapidly heated to produce a very fast airgun ejected projectile. Chapter 3 considers the future of big guns and guns in general from the point of view of sensing devices. We restate the preface point that guns have a future and will triumph over missiles in the end. Big guns may even launch space payloads after the Jules Verne fashion. I have discussed these matters in other essays of mine as well.

About the Author
Preface
Long Tom refers to any of several artillery field guns used by several nations. The missile age came with the Buck Rogers sci-fi sentiment that missiles would displace guns as the primary weapon of attack. Look at the cruise missile, the ICBM, the various air-to-air missiles on planes and anti-aircraft batteries. As it turns out, the technology that allows these also allows the development of better cannons at both short and long range (very long range.)
