Patrie

If development had continued on battleships with 431 mm main battery guns, the next logical step would have been to increase the number of guns. Achieving that would require an additional main battery turret, even taking into account a reduction in AA and auxiliary artillery. In that case, the battleship's artillery would have been twelve 431 mm guns in three quadruple-gun turrets.
