It was probably either the Royal Navy or the US Navy (the 16 inch Mark 7 on the Iowa-class had them). I don't know that in the Littorio-class' turrets anything like delay coils was implemented. And I have no information available that points to firing directors having separate guns in a turret fire separately, and not a full three salvo (if not for misfires).

Also, according to NavWeaps the delay coils fitted to the Richelieu, during tests made in 1948, gave the inner barrels a delay of 0.060 seconds over the outer ones (identical to the one on the Iowas). A second seems to be overkill.

Anyway, these are just IRL considerations, which matter relatively for the game. My opinion counts for what it counts, and I won't lose sleep over this.
