  2. Simple answer? Different range and volume of fire. The 5" guns are long range AA defense. While lighter 20mm and such are close in weapons. You have mix to defend at all angles and ranges. Placement is basically where is open room & clear field of fire?

  6. One, carriers were thought to have a scouting role pre WWIi. They would be the fleets eyes and would then guide the Battleships to the fight. As weapons and tactics changed, then they take a strike role. Second, is political. Big ship admirals ran the Navies. Sub and Aviation officers lacked seniority to change traditional policy.
