the 88 would not have the power to go through a tank at 7km, nor the accuracy to hit it more than 5% of the time in absolutely perfect conditions. whats the chance of the guns on a battleship being disabled, when the round has a chance of nill to go through the armor, while shooting from a rolling and pitching platform while moving and shooting at another moving platform and doing this with only 200 or so rounds? I also forgot to mention all these rounds being HE and thus having little to no penetration ability, and even less accuracy due to inherent ballistic characteristics compared to a solid or semi-solid AP round.
