Kongo in-game is as she was in her 1912 guise as a Battlecruiser. Her Kai is roughly her 1935 rebuild (and reclassification into a Fast Battleship) with fictional 41cm guns added. Her Kai 2 is more of a "what-if" modernization that gave her radar, which she never had IRL.

Warspite here has stats matching Kongo Kai, implying she is in her 1937 rebuild. Warspite Kai build easily exceeds Kongo Kai 2, probably implying her 1941 refit in the USA, giving her an edge the Allies had over Axis ships during the war.

If KC devs give the Grand Old Lady a Kai 2, she might get specs rivaling Iowa...and she's a WWI vet.
