The Green Mace system, fitted with the 5 inch gun. The 5-inch gun is recorded as holding 13 rounds per drum, one either side, with an engagement range of 25,000 ft. 30,000 ft was also possible, with a 9.7 second time of flight to reach this altitude.
The rate of fire was recorded as a continuous burst of fire for 20 seconds, with a 20-second interval, for a total theoretical rate of fire of 80 rounds per minute – although in practice it would use its ammunition up before this.
