mentioned near this tag is ambiguous. (April 2019)">when?</span></a></i>]</sup> naval usage, a barbette is a protective circular armour support for a heavy gun turret. This evolved from earlier forms of gun protection that eventually led to the <a href="/wiki/Pre-dreadnought" class="mw-redirect" title="Pre-dreadnought">pre-dreadnought</a>. The name <i>barbette</i> ultimately comes from <a href="/wiki/Fortification" title="Fortification">fortification</a>: it originally meant a raised platform or mound,<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> as in the French phrase <i>en barbette</i>, which refers to the practice of firing a <a href="/wiki/Cannon" title="Cannon">cannon</a> over a <a href="/wiki/Parapet" title="Parapet">parapet</a> rather than through an <a href="/wiki/Embrasure" title="Embrasure">embrasure</a> in a fortification's <a href="/wiki/Casemate" title="Casemate">casemate</a>. The former gives better angles of fire but less protection than the latter. The <a href="/wiki/Disappearing_gun" title="Disappearing gun">disappearing gun</a> was a variation on the barbette gun; it consisted of a heavy gun on a <a href="/wiki/Carriage" title="Carriage">carriage</a> that would retract behind a <a href="/wiki/Parapet" title="Parapet">parapet</a> or into a gunpit for reloading. Barbettes were primarily used in coastal defences, but saw some use in a handful of warships, and some inland fortifications. The term is also used for certain aircraft gun mounts. </p><p>Shipboard barbettes were primarily used in armoured warships, starting in the 1860s during a period of intense experimentation with other mounting systems for heavy guns at sea. In these, gun barrels usually protruded over the barbette edge, so barbettes provided only partial protection, mainly for the <a href="/wiki/Ammunition" title="Ammunition">ammunition</a> supply. Alternatives included the heavily-armoured <a href="/wiki/Gun_turret" title="Gun turret">gun turret</a> and an armoured, fixed <a href="/wiki/Central_battery_ship" title="Central battery ship">central gun battery</a>. By the late 1880s, all three systems were replaced with a hybrid barbette-turret system that combined the benefits of both types. The armoured vertical tube that supported the new gun mount was referred to as a barbette. </p><p>Guns with restricted arcs of fire mounted in heavy bombers during World War II—such those in the tail of the aircraft, as opposed to fully revolving turrets—were also sometimes referred to as having barbette mounts, though usage of the term is primarily restricted to British publications. American authors generally refer to such mounts as tail guns or as tail gun turrets. </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Use_in_fortifications">Use in fortifications</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Barbette&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Use in fortifications"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Casemate.png" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/b9/Casemate.png/220px-Casemate.png" decoding="async" width="220" height="128" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/b9/Casemate.png/330px-Casemate.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/b9/Casemate.png/440px-Casemate.png 2x" data-file-width="890" data-file-height="518" /></a><figcaption>Cross-section of a 19th-century fortification; a gun at position "C" would be firing from a barbette position</figcaption></figure> <p>The use of barbette mountings originated in ground fortifications.

While an <i>en barbette</i> emplacement offered wider arcs of fire, it also exposed the gun's crew to greater danger from hostile fire.<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> In addition, since the barbette position would be higher than a <a href="/wiki/Casemate" title="Casemate">casemate</a> position—that is, a gun firing through an embrasure—it would generally have a greater field of fire. </p><p>The American military theorist <a href="/wiki/Dennis_Hart_Mahan" title="Dennis Hart Mahan">Dennis Hart Mahan</a> suggested that light guns, particularly <a href="/wiki/Howitzer" title="Howitzer">howitzers</a>, were best suited for barbette emplacements since they could fire explosive <a href="/wiki/Shell_(projectile)" title="Shell (projectile)">shells</a> and could be easily withdrawn when they came under enemy fire.<sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Fortifications in the 19th century typically employed both casemate and barbette emplacements.
