Under 10 barrel (5 guns) I have to disagree with that.
Its going to snipe low level scout, and thats it. The only ship that can use them efficiently is the DD3, and by the time your gunner are classed its max displacement will be the main issue. So you'll fit a low level BO that you might have the gunners, the gun and not much more.
Pretty amazing AA ship tough. Small and fast enough to keep up and be a pain to shoot from long range. Ammo is an issue.
The T slots are also really far apart, so you'd have to cross your lines at the exact spot to hit a plane with more than 4 shells on lower tiers BB.
The asama while decent at it also suffer from that T-slot positionning issue, compared to the pensacola or the Moltke/Mandell
