"Well yeah. Remember that in some games there always be "side-effects" besides the real life equivalent of this is very powerful and can be almost to compare to the Yamato-class Main Guns."

You're overselling 381mm. They were supposed to have range similar to Yamato 46s - true, but never were comparable when it comes to power. Those guns were designed with low caliber and high velocity in mind, so they were firing shells weighting half of the 46cm shell. Very long range, but nowhere as much capability of penetrating armour.

Also, they were on the slower side - time between salvos was longer than for pretty much any Japanese (or German) heavy gun in game. I think that's the reason for accuracy penalty: slower firing = less fire density = less chances to straddle enemy. Also, historically, they performed rather bad in accuracy department, which was probably caused by poor quality ammo with inconsistent parameters.

Low AA is due to low possible elevation.

Overall, the stats make (historical) sense. I'm just not sure about -1 to evasion.
