It may very well be Pablo, but I'm not 100% sure since thats a post WW1 cruiser. I know Australia was way behind the 8 ball at the begining of WWII as far as capital ships.
As iambecomelife also made note a few USN ships were also at 1 stage fitted out the same. Whilst it was as i said not main stream - it did happen. As to its effectiveness, well thats a different story altogether.

I also fitted some KGuns to the Dido at the node normaly for the Torpedos, 1 thing I did notice is that the KGuns are still facing inboard (trained aft). This, if the KGuns ever did fire, would cause a very ugly mess indeed. However that will not be the reason they wont fire. I'm 100% sure the reason is this.
On AI ship's the NODES control the ammo TYPES just like thay do on PCO's (Player Controled Objects). Ergo, the T01 Nodes will NOT have DC ammo, ever !
Ok to prove a point take the S01 slots on a sub, IF u change the AA gun on a S01 slot to a 20mm AA gun, u will now have AA plus AP rounds for that 20mm AA gun, were as normaly the 20mm on its A01 slot only gets AP rounds. U do the same with a 105mm DG and place it on the S01 slot u now get 105mm AA & AP rounds only.
It wont matter if u add in the Basic.cfg the extra ammo types to the S01 or the A01 type ammo slots, it will never show up, even with a weapon change.
Conclusion
The T01 slot will only be usable for an object that never needs ammo (read Seach light or same) because untill an MDT (Mod Developers Toolkit) comes out and we can acctually make the damn Torpedo banks work on surface ships they are only ever going to be eye candy. So in fact whilst LC may have very well had DC's at same stage we on the other hand will not be able to do so.
The 1 thing that any game now requires to make it in the big leauges is Community MOD support and MP support beyond a token effort. Sadly this is not the case with SH3. Hell I have done a heap of models I wanted to place into a mod for the SH3 engine but without a MDT from Ubi, I may as well go fly a kite !!
