Looks like the Navy is suffers from the same thing the Army does ?
In the early 90’s we were told to take all the ring mounts for .50’s off all the support trucks and throw them in the scrap mental bin.
You will never need them warfare is too fast now we overran the Iraqi Army in a few days we will never fight a war that requires ammo and fuel trucks to be armed.
In 2003 the Army was requesting the National Guard send ring mounts off the old trucks to the Regular Army it seems ammo and fuel trucks needed to be armed again.
