Ansaldo Export Design for Argentina

During the South American Arms race after Brazil ordered the construction of three Battleships from Great Britain which became the Minas Geraes class (of which only two were delivered having the 3rd cancelled for redesign into a new class which became the famous HMS Agincourt) in 1906, Argentina had to follow to keep up and not fall behind it's neighboring rival. Due to a lengthy process Argentina was finally awarded the construction of two new battleships from the American shipyards at Fore River and New York. But the lengthy process included a large number of designs from many shipyards both from Italy, England, Germany and France. This design here was offered by Ansaldo in 1908 featuring no less then 15x 305mm cannons in 5 triple turrets, 3 funnels risen forecastle and the usual casemated guns. The design came out of 20.000tons and must had made sacrifices in armour to attain this large amount of armament, surpassing even the HMS Agincourt's 14x guns!

The design had these characteristics:
Dimensions: unreadable probably around 168,5m (wl) x 25,4m x 8,8m
Displacement: 20.000ons (Standard)
Engines: unreadable probably around 30-35.000shp 4 shaft Steam Turbines
Speed: 41km/h (22knots)
Range unreadable probably around 8.300km at 19km/h (4500nm at 10knots)
Armour: unreadable probably around 250mm Belt and 50mm Deck
Armaments:
5x3 305mm/45 Armstrong Modello 1908 / Armstrong Mk R Cannons,
20x1 120mm/45 Armstrong Modello 1908 / Armstrong Mk DD Casemated Guns,
