I wish coilguns were real because I think it would make reallt really big ballistic artillery a thing
Honestly it's not question of them being "real" or not but rather just like. What problem do they solve that isn't already solved better (or cheaper) by rocketry or conventional ballistics? They share a lot of the same fundamental challenges that light gas guns and railguns do, even though like light gas guns, they're a lot more within the realm of the practical.
