Think of a HVA at sea, say a heavy CG cruiser like Kirov class, or carrier. Even a logistics carrier, there are so few of these these days.

And ammo expenditure rateis very high, and can render a platform at sea useless once it has emptied its magazines quickly and needs to go back to a port.

Same is true for an airfield.

Or a reactor. A reservoir dam. In war, at least me would love to bombard dams. Keeps them enemies pretty busym their traffic and logistics infrastructure collapsing and their nights pretty dark.
