Coastal defense artillery
Coastal defense artillery consists of large guns installed along a coastline to protect against enemy ships and naval threats. These guns are strategically positioned to target approaching vessels before they can reach land, serving as a defensive barrier. Modern coastal defense may also include missile systems, radar, and surveillance to detect and intercept threats. The primary goal is to safeguard ports, naval bases, and coastlines from invasion or attack, helping maintain national security and territorial integrity.
