I once saw, as a throw away line, that just prior to these ships being retired post ww2 there was a plan/idea to modernise one or both of these ships which included increasing their speed to 28 knots.
Has anyone else ever heard of this? What did it entail?
Assuming someone other than me has heard of it; WI this modernisation was conducted just prior to ww2? Would having a pair of fast, 16" BBs change the course of many campaigns/actions?
