Overview
While designing the Allen M. Sumner-class and Gearing-class destroyers, options for equipping the ships with long-barreled 127 mm/54-caliber guns in single or twin mounts were considered. However, it was impossible to fit these guns on the existing hull—not enough space for the corresponding equipment and systems nor enough time to redesign the ship from scratch. Besides, replacing the 40 mm Bofors guns with automatic 76 mm guns would have led to a noticeable increase in displacement, so this development option was abandoned.
