  1. 53:12 I think one of the other things to keep in mind is throughout the war the 15 inch gun was never seen as not doing enough when it hit in WW2. I think we get a little too top trumps in terms of gun shells, the thing that matters was the effect on the other end and the 15 inch shell proved it was very potent on the receiving end.

  2. 53:12 you also have to keep in mind at the time Italy was making very high velocity guns, whereas Britian was making relatively low velocity battleship guns. Making it make more sense for Italy than for Britain
