MIL-STD-1399/72-2A, MILITARY STANDARD: INTERFACE STANDARD FOR SHIPBOARD SYSTEMS SECTION 072.2 BLAST ENVIRONMENT, GUN MUZZLE (24-OCT-1991)., This section addresses the interface characteristics of gun blast effects for ship guns ranging from 78 millimeter (mm), 3 inch/50 to 16 inch/50, and the characteristics of Hi-Frag ammunition versus standard ammunition. Small caliber guns, such as Close-in-Weapon System (CIWS) are excluded since they produce insignificant blast effects, and may generally be ignored for ship and equipment design purposes.
