Mobile mortars offered for coast defense
In a bold proposal, J. L. Lintelten and C. Dawsen seek government interest in a mobile coastal defense system. Their concept uses heavy guns mounted on railway carriages with reinforced concrete foundations for rapid deployment along Atlantic shores. They claim the design allows quick relocation to protect rail corridors and key ports at a fraction of fortification costs, with estimates suggesting up to 110 guns and 1,200 to 1,500 men per train car.
