Naval artillery
Naval artillery or naval rifles refers to warship-mounted guns used in naval warfare for attacking other vessels, bombarding targets on shore (naval gunfire support), or for anti-aircraft. Conversely, the term may be used as a descriptor about the naval rifles used in land batteries for anti-shipping area denial purposes.
