The proposal was scaled down to a ship close to Yamato's displacement, with 3x dual mounted 51cm guns, and boasting Akizuki style long 10cm/65 guns for air defense.

The designs were tabled in 1941, but the age of battleship was over.
Ah you mean about the game. It would be interesting to have her kai ni be something like that with a 51 gun as stock equipment.
