To put them on AOPS would require rebuilding the entire front end of the ship, it isn't happening.I know we already have the 57’s but why not put 76’s on the CDC’s and hold the 57’s in reserve in case we were pressed to put them on the AOPS or on something else.
The 57mm is a great gun for what we need smaller ships to do, so using what we have, or buying more updated versions makes a lot of sense.
This isn't WWII, we aren't using the "main battery" to engage in surface warfare, it's mostly about air threats and lower threat actions against smaller ships/boats.
