The article ends - "no more was heard of the aerial COW gun." - Not true, although there were no more uses for fighters the COW gun was used in a nose installation on the big Blackburn Perth Flying boat, not only as a trial installation but also used in service. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.36.128.58 (talk) 13:05, 8 March 2015 (UTC)Reply
