Background
About the ship
During the process of further developing the Town-class cruisers between 1935 and 1936, several projects with different weapons were considered. The largest of them was the KXV project armed with four quadruple-gun main battery turrets. However, the Admiralty preferred the variant with triple-gun turrets to save weight. Later on, this led to the emergence of the Edinburgh-class cruisers.
