USS Long Beach CGN-9

We want to continue the conversation regarding old 5in guns aboard US Navy vessels. Here is USS Long Beach CGN-9 in 1989, you can see her MK-30 5”/38 were still retained. After her early 80’s conversion the CIWS were installed along with Harpoon launchers on the fantail. #usslongbeach #cgn9 #navalaviation #aviationsafari #aviationpreservation #boneyardsafari #usnavy
