What about say a different version of the bomb chute but have it be a mortar instead. I get we have up to a 2000mm cannon but they are direct fire and often close range.
This could a a valuable weapon and possible cheaper weapon to use to take out large slow vessels or fortifications. And balanced by medium-long shell flight time and weight of the mortar itself.
So one could opt the cheaper route by equipping a mortar instead of spending a lot of resources on a medium to short range 2000mm cram cannon that can be difficult to mount on a smaller ship due to the bulk the gauge increases take up along with many of the other parts.
