The 7"/44 caliber gun Mark 1 (spoken "seven-inch-forty-four--caliber") and 7"/45 caliber gun Mark 2 (spoken "seven-inch-forty-five--caliber") were used for the secondary batteries of the United States Navy's last generation of pre-dreadnought battleships, the Connecticut-class and Mississippi-class. The 7-inch (178 mm) caliber was considered, at the time, to be the largest caliber weapon suitable as a rapid-fire secondary gun because its shells were the heaviest that one man could handle alone.

  • Le canon de 7 pouces/45 calibres (aussi désigné sous le nom de canon de 7 pouces/44 calibres) est un canon de calibre 178 mm produit par la Marine américaine pour équiper les batteries secondaires de ses cuirassés pré-dreadnought du XXe siècle. En 1922, le traité naval de Washington amenant à la démolition de ceux-ci, le surplus de canons sera utilisé par l'Armée, monté sur un affût mobile pour servir de canon automoteur ou monté sur wagon pour servir d'artillerie ferroviaire. Enfin, durant la Seconde Guerre mondiale, d'autres canons de 7 pouces seront réutilisés comme artillerie côtière. (fr)
