Marlborough B — United Kingdom · Tier IX · Battleship

One of the options to use as a basis for designing the Lion-class battleships was Project 14B/38. It had sixteen 356 mm guns in four turrets and was developed in case the new 406 mm gun proved to be unsuccessful. The use of 356 mm guns would have sped up the construction of the Lion-class battleships, but this idea wasn't pursued.
