I just went to look up the difference in muzzle velocity between the Abrams and the Mk 45 LWGS cause the Mk 45 is quiet as non other (both inside the mount and outside). We may fire a slightly larger caliber but we don't put near the size powder charge behind it apparently that they use in the Abrams.

Which is funny cause you'd think it'd be the reverse since a massive ship could better handle that kind of recoil.
