20.3cm Twin Gun Mount

Introduction

重巡に搭載された主砲、それが20.3cm連装砲です。
条約上限一杯の8インチ（20.3cm）のこの砲は、中距離での砲撃戦はもちろん、 夜戦のような近距離での殴り合いでも十分にその威力を発揮します。
限定的ですが、対空射撃も可能です。

"20.3cm twin gun was the main armament of heavy cruisers. Calibered at 8 inch (20.3cm) which is the limit of naval treaty, it works extremely well in both day and night battle, from point blank to mid-range firing. Also works limitedly as anti-air weapon."

Equipped as standard main guns for all Japanese heavy cruisers. Initially it was developed as 20.0cm single mount (as seen on early Furutaka class) but was later modified to fit 8.0 inch (20.3cm). 

Can also be equipped on light cruisers, as in Kancolle world "there's no naval treaty". However in the interview with Japanese Febri magazine the line appeared as "20.3cm guns equipped on light cruisers will not be able to show 100% efficiency", although there is no quantitative data to prove the fact.
