Then there is British 3.7-infantry gun that has only appeared on close-support tanks:

These are direct fire weapons. We were talking about bombardment
The point of mentioning them was to consider how BF translated into a DF which would be used IN hex....
looking for equivalent DF units using the same weapon....

So when we think about Bombardment units, and consider If they might fire IN hex---what would their DF be if doing so?
That is what we were talking about---so comparisons of weapons which occur in both BF and DF forms provides insight....(that is my hypothesis...)

OK That makes sense i guess. You might work out that a 150mm gun (which is 18 BF???) That might work out to an 8 for DF and thus assault. I could see that. I think that rockets and mortars are not OK for having firepower in assault, but guns/howitzers could be. I think a rule of thumb might be assault at .5 BF strength in assault. I could see that.
