They were based on the British 4.7-inch Gun Mark IV, but a non-standard export model, the standard Mark IV was 40 caliber. They were constructed of a tube with a jacket and four hoops that went from the breech to the muzzle.[1] In 1903 the eight guns from New Orleans and Albany were removed and replaced with {{convert|5|in|adj=on|0}}/50 caliber guns. These guns were relocated to Fort Wint on Grande Island in the Philippines, in 1907, to guard the entrance to Subic Bay. One of the guns was later mounted on the British armed yacht Eileen during World War I.[1] In the US Navy they were referred to as 4.7"/50 Mark 3 Armstrong, or as a "large case" gun, to help distinguish them from the additional earlier "small case" 4.7"/47 Mark 1 and 4.7"/42 Mark 2 guns that had been purchased from Vickers & Sons in the 1890s. Sometime after 1906 two other 4.7" guns were purchased and designated as Mark 4's but no other details survive. By 1924 all of these guns had been "surveyed and condemned" and taken out of service.[1] Naval Service
