Naval shell calibres

Translating the key inch calibres into a common units and showing penetration of some of the naval shells in roughly the same calibre. This table is meant to give you a rough idea of how much protection does the ship armor give at a typical combat ranges. Going by inches as a base puts some nations in a disadvantage in terms of a number of entries in the table (notably Germans).

AP

Note: A number of guns (notably Japanese) use SAP instead of AP ammunition for the same purpose. 30° @ 5000m was selected to illustrate real ranges and hit angles. While not universal (e.g. ≥12" guns rarely shoot at targets so close) it should give you a rough idea about the performance for the shells boiled down to a single number.

inch	mm official	mm SI calculated	Penetration @ 30° @ 5000m
3	76	76.2	30mm 37mm
4	102	101.6	–
5	127	127	93mm 86mm
6	152	152.4	100mm 177mm
