| Abstract: Providing the marines expeditionary and amphibious assault forces with long range surface fire support missions is one of the responsibilities of the U.S. Navy. Meeting the U.S. Marine Corps (USMC) Ship-To-Objective Maneuver (STOM) and Operational Maneuver From The Sea (OMFTS) requirements required the prediction of the maximum achievable ballistic ranges for a 100 lbs, 5″ diameter/12 calibers, GPS guided, dart-like barrage round when fired from 5″, 155mm, 8″, 10″, 12″, 14″, 16″, and 18″ bore barrels that are 64 and 200 calibers in length at maximum breech pressures of 448MPa (65Ksi) and 896MPa (130Ksi.) | ||||
