I found some interesting sketches on https://archimondi.it/s/1/item-set/8621 ... esc&page=9, not sure if anyone ever posted them before.

These seem to be a 356mm/50 naval gun with associated triple turret design. 

Though the images are blurry, by comparing with 381mm gun sketches of higher resolution, the data on the upper right corner must be:

Gun weight: 7XXXX kg
Shell weight: 722 kg
Propellent charge weight: 245 kg
Muzzle velocity: 870 mps
Working pressure: 3X00 kg/cm2

The gun has a length of 18XX0 mm.

The turret is very similar to Littorio's triple 381mm turret, but with a tall tower structure at the rear.

The Littorio Class provides a probable profile of Italian 1933 battleship study, the turrets are exactly the same as these sketches.
