Trivia

Officially the largest calibered guns ever equipped on warships. Historically, it was only equipped on purposely built Yamato class, but in Kancolle world even Kongou can carry this (the entire turret weighs some 2800 tons). After the war, the technologies used to rotate this turret was applied to the mechanicals of the revolving restaurant on top of Hotel New Otani. The lathes used to machine the barrel of 46cm guns are still active today at Kure.
