The War Department plans a six inch rapid fire gun to be built at Bethlehem steel works with a muzzle velocity of 3000 feet per second and a firing rate of at least eight thousand pounds per minute at 2500 feet per second. The Bethlehem breech mechanism, an improvement on the Vickers design, is expected to outperform the English system for naval use. The Navy recently paid 250000 dollars for rights to the Vickers breech, hoping Bethlehem can surpass that performance.
