actually, both the H-38 and H-44 would have fielded 16 inchers
from www.adolfkanonen.com "The guns were developed in 1934 for the new capital ships for the Kriegsmarine...In 1937 the Kriegsmarine ordered the 40,6cm guns from Krupp in Essen for the next series of battleships, the H and J class of 56,200 tons. Plan Z was the driving force behind the expansion of the Kriegsmarine. It was approved in 1937 and very ambitious when it came to number and size of ships. However, the timeframe did not coincide with Hitler’s plans for the land war. The building of the two battleships with the planned names of Friedrich der Große and Großdeutschland was stopped. " so, you up-arm your bismarck too Quote:
that cracked me up, but you forgot the Yamato, but we all know what happened
