41 cm/45 3rd Year Type naval gun
This turret is not nesessarily exactly the same as the real thing!
The machine gun is based on a Japanese 25mm machine gun, but it's not the same as the real thing, and it's a double machine gun when it should be a triple machine gun! I'm sorry!

A very good gun hidden behind a 46 cm gun
The 45 caliber 3-year 41cm gun was built for the Imperial Japanese Navy during World War I. The gun was designed for the Japanese Navy. The gun was capable of firing a 936 kg (2064 lb) shell at a rate of one shot every 24 seconds at a range of 30200 m (33000 yd) with an initial velocity of 790 m (2600 ft/s) from its 18.294 m (60 ft 0.2 in) long barrel. The battleships that were to carry this gun included the Amagi class cruiser, the Tosa class battleship, and the Kii class battleship, all of which were cancelled by the Washington Naval Disarmament Treaty. At that time, Japan only had the IJN Nagato and the IJN Mutsu under construction, and the IJN decided to cancel all ships equipped with 41cm guns except for the Nagato and Mutsu, and convert the two Amagi class ships into aircraft carriers. However, due to the Great Kanto Earthquake, the Amagi was damaged beyond repair, and the second Amagi class ship, Akagi, and the first Kaga class ship, Kaga, were converted into aircraft carriers, which later became the "Daiichi Koukuu Sentai". The fourth turret, which was removed when Mutsu was refitted, is now on display in Etajima, while the barrels of the guns raised from Mutsu's wreckage are on display at the Yamato Museum in Kure and the Ocean Science Museum in Odaiba.
