Would foreign navies copy the rebuilt Towns?

Four British conversions are considered too small a programme to trigger major foreign ship-design changes.

Question

How would other navies change their ship designs after seeing the rebuilt Town-class cruisers?

Short answer

Probably very little: only four ships are being modified, and other navies have limited scope to respond.

Notes

Only four ships are being modified in this scenario, and foreign navies have limited scope to respond to that small programme. It is therefore considered unlikely to produce major changes in their construction plans.
