Three guns in a British 15-inch twin turret

The calibre would probably need to fall to about 13.5 inches, and the arrangement would still be cramped.

Question

Could a British twin 15-inch turret take three guns of that calibre?

Short answer

The calibre would probably need to fall to about 13.5 inches, and the arrangement would still be cramped.

Notes

The British twin 15-inch turret has comfortable room for its existing pair of guns but limited spare width. A triple mounting would probably require reducing the calibre to about 13.5 inches. Even that arrangement would be a tight fit.
