One reviewer claimed that the idea of a Supergun was impractical due to the huge flame that could easily be observed from satellites, and that such a gun would take days to clean out and reload.
This is not correct.
A supergun can work, and is no more impractical than a fixed airbase or missile launch site.
The German superguns did work, and many rounds were fired both in testing and operationally - at Luxembourg.
Iran would have had difficulty destroying a firing site. Its ground attack capability was not good, and the gun itself would be a small target. Flames could not be seen from space, even if Iran did have a satellite over Iraq at the time of firing.
It would also have been an ideal weapon with which to launch projectiles against the state of Israel.
