    "Originally envisioned to provide long-range precision shore battery fire support for invading U.S. Marines via its 155mm Advanced Gun Systems (AGSs), the USS Zumwalts failed in this mission because each custom 155mm GPS-guided Rocket Assisted Shell (RAP) cost around $800,000 each for a range of about 60-80 miles."
