Однако сам по себе проект начался так - ув. Kimsky установил, что подбашенные помещения одноорудийных 12" башен не полезут в оконечности реального БАЯНА. Тогда и было предположено, что в районе миделя они влезут....так появился мегадевайс в размерах и бронировании БАЯНА, но с 2*1*12" установками (вес для тяжёлых башен экономился на верхнем поясе, сокращении до 4 стволов 6" орудий и т.д.). Однако во время пути собака могла подрасти (c)
