Question about Kongo Class turrets.  Were there any class of ships either in the Japanese Navy or British Navy that used the same turrets?

Thanks all,

Yes, the Fuso and Ise classes in the Japanese navy used the same turrets.

Thanks much. I was told this was the case. Anyone know if the turrets are available from any of the suppliers?

I think Grey Wolf has an Ise turret in the works.

Yeah, apparently they do not have molds for the Fuso turrets so you can only get them if you get a deck kit. Or something. Fortunately between two Fusos I have some spare ones...

I just completed the casemate area on the Kirishima. I guess I'll start laying up turrets in the next couple of weeks. I always liked the Fuso. The step deck is very far forward which means less target area. Your lucky to have spares.

Try Strikemodels for the turrets.
