United States Naval Gun Armor Penetration Tables

By Robert Lundgren and Richard Worth
Updated 27 November 2009


Most US shells went through several modifications with significantly improved armor penetration and damage resistance capabilities as time went on. Years are approximately when new shells were developed. There is no way of knowing when individual ships actually received them.
