Been reading a WW2 Alt History book recently and came cross a interesting idea (gona spoiler as little as possible) in the book the last two KGV Class battleships are built with 16 inch guns supplied by the USA in a triple turret 3x3 configuration, they get also bigger torpedo bilges and more armour, at the cost of a few knots lost in terms of speed.

Would have America supplied the guns? What reason would the Royal Navy need to do such a redesign? Finally what are the effects of having a "sub class" of two "Upguned KGV class" battleships?

Wondered what everyone thought since personally I like the idea in principle.
