If you want the shell to "glide" then it'd be difficult as battleship guns were rifled, so the spin imparted on the shell would make wings for gliding worthless. Of course fast forwarding to modern tech you have the likes of the M982 Excalibur shell, but since you are asking about WW2 specifically you can't use stuff like that.
