Yes ppl talking about Fujimoto, but let say more down to Earth project from 1930
(what you posted is pure fantasy from ~1934, all admiral knew its impossible with
current industrial capacity of Japan).

It was thought as replacement for Fuso class which overall quality when WWII break
out was medicore at best. Only Kongos were in worst shape (leaking boliers).
Anyway Fuso-Repl (as I will call it now) initial project called for a ship with:

- ~43000 ts full load (~40000 ts normal load),
- 26 kts speed,
- size projected @: ~238m x 32m x ~9m,
- engine power 73000 HP (but considered up to ~95000 HP),
- 3*3 = 9 * 410 mm [16.1"] Type 90 45-cal (but later 50-cal barrel was considered
because of much better range ~3800m); 2 forward turrets, 1 aft,
- 6*2 = 12 * 152 mm [6"] 50-cal (same guns as Agano type, not a triple 6.1"/60 as
Oyodo/Yamato)
- 4*2 = 8 * 127 mm [5"] 40-cal AA
- 2-4 floatplanes, 1 catapult

Later after Midway disaster both Fusos were considered to be converted like Ises to
hybrid CV with only 4*14" (2 forward turrets), but conversion never carried out due
to "better" priorities. And any new BBs ideas died in the mid of 1942 :(

Vote for my thread "IJN issues..." in NF Event where I suggesting some modification
& addition to IJN ship tree.

Not a bad idea, but just so you know, super yamato is already implemented...

(And BB remodel seems like a bad idea because they are already pretty powerful.
Better to just make them separate)

All of this is very very well.IJN lacks variety in BB line.Except Fujimoto.
I dont think its a good idea to put better ships in game than BB5's
