Historical ships in the game World of Warships 👉 wo.ws/3MrVWY7 Well, looks like this is our most viral video! Be sure to check other stuff in our playlist here: wo.ws/WoWSCoolStuff And don't forget to subscribe, if you haven't done so yet:) 🔔 wo.ws/KZread-subscription The Yamato battleship is the pinnacle of the battleship type. The biggest battleship in the world, and the best known Japanese Navy ship. Sadly remembered for her defeat in her last battle against 227 American aircraft, which became a demonstrative execution and ended with the giant being defeated and the hopes of the Japanese command crashed. Built in secret, and at great expense, she emerged as the largest battleship in history. Born to terrify her enemies, she'd cost eight billion USD to build in today's dollars. She represents the pinnacle of battleship building, but launched at a key turning point in naval warfare history. The rise of aircraft-based naval combat left her immensely powerful, but ill-equipped to fight sustained air attacks. Still, nothing captures the imagination of naval aficionados quite like Yamato.

I am from Japan but I live in Australia since 1957. I remember it was raining when I saw my father come home for only 1 hour. I was 14. We just stared at each other. He smiled for a second. My mother also stared. I knew to leave the room but I kept looking from behind the curtain. My father, Yamato mechanic, left quickly. Few days later we learned of his passing from that battle. My mother told me when I married that my father came to say goodbye that night. Only those words were spoken. They sat and ate together for that hour. My mother never cried. she never slept in her bed again until she died. Never moved from that old small home in Hataka. Died from the radiation years later. They are together I know in my heart. Soon I will see them together again.

Why the electronic world is primarily controlled by the Asian market of communism and hate directed at the free world especially at America. Even with Americans monies in hand it still not enough to sooth the beast of anti American rhetoric. And my country pays again especially during our holidays. My country was in a state of shock due not being able to unload Asian goods quick enough. That hurts knowing at one time it was the other way around. We without conscience allowed are industrial wave of plenty to up and leave us empty handed...

I'm Japanese, and I think 1:40 ~ is very misleading. Japan never believed in the Yamato in her final mission. She only had fuel for one way, no aircarft to protect her. It was a Kamikaze mission. It was the last cry, knowing she would be sunk. If Yamato, the pride of the IJN, surrendered before any real action, it would have been an embarrassment to the navy.

​@@fredricunderhill204 It was a source of pride, for sure. But Japan knew the aircraft game before anyone; It was Japan who created the first battlegroup centered around an aircraft carrier, after her battleship numbers were limited in the Washington treaty. The irony, is that while the Japanese proved the superiority of the aircraft, and demonstrated the foolishness of war ships operating without fighter cover by sinking Prince of Wales and Repulse in '42, by April '45, with their carrier forces destroyed and shore based air corps decimated, the IJN sent the Yamato to Okinawa without air cover ...where she met the same fate as the Prince of Wales.

Jun Shibata We agree. Yamamoto saw the strength and tactical value of carrier based aircraft as did U. S. General Billy Mitchell. However top brass are often opposed to changing tactics. After all, their tactics got them promoted 20 years ago. The attack on Pearl Harbor was shortened as the U. S. carriers were out to sea. By "archers" I reference the defeats of the Spartans to the Persians and later the Greeks, the English in 1066, ineffective artillery at Pickett's Charge and others. The IJN used all their "archers", submarines, type 93 torpedoes, kiaten torpedoes and kamikaze aircraft well. The USN were at a disadvantage until late 1942 into 1943 when Yamamoto's prediction and fear of American production ability and adaptive ability proved accurate.

But to put things in better perspective, the Yamato was built in the late 1930s - early 1940s, but it has a displacement of 72,800 tons, more than TWICE as big as France largest current aircraft carrier, the Charles De Gaulle. The mighty & current British aircraft carrier, Queen Elizabeth --- with over 2 dozen F-35s and helicopters on it ---- only has a displacement of 65,000 tons! That means, while the Yamato is close to 100 years old, only the mighty Nimitz (97,000 ton) and Ford (100,000 ton) aircraft carrier classes beat it.

The video itself is very cheap, basically a hype video for a ship to get you excited about it and play the game. But I don't think there was any correct information in that video on it besides the name... Actually the name translation was also wrong... Also calling it "the largest battleship" is a bit of a stretch... I mean the largest battle ship in history is the US Nimitz class Aircraft carrier, I guess you technically can't call it a battle ship, you need to technically have guns for it to call it a battle ship... but I mean it's a war ship, and you use it in battles, just not a close range, but long range ( range of an aircraft on that ship) ,but still a bit manipulative in my eyes...

@@metaknight115 I understand that concept , hence why I mentioned it , if you actually read my original message. Though I can easily challenge those definitions. As technically the largest battle ship that I personally admire is Nimitz Class , aircraft carrier. And after that there are Russian battleships of Orlan class i. e. "Pyotr Velikij" battleship as it's technically more versatile and more powerful and more advanced than Yamato... Only then you could place Yamato at the third place... At least for me. It's a nice ship and concept, but nothing about it speaks " the best" , just a large battle ship with big conventional caliber guns... It's not even the most guns as Manowar type class battle ships had more guns than Yamato... In my classification of large cool ships it would definitely trail at like 4th or 5th place, again not impressive to me as other battle ships, yet in that video they somehow hyped it up like it was the best, when in fact it didn't do anything at all and failed miserably, some nice features on a large ship, but nothing impressive.

I visited the Yamato museum in Kure in 2015, it was well worth it! The detail on the model is incredible and there were also some relics salvaged from the original ship on display.

Yamato ... It's a symbol of the great warship cannonism that battleship lovers in this world once know.

Hands down the most beautiful battleship ever built.

IJN _Yamato_ & her sister ship _Mushashi_ were indeed the pinnacle of battleship design & construction but could be considered obsolete when launched. Japan proved how vulnerable a battleship was to aerial attack (especially when the battleships were unsupported by aerial defences) with their sinking of the British warships HMS _Prince of Wales_ & HMS _Repulse_ in the South China Sea in December 1941 by land-based bombers & torpedo bombers.

It's on this date, 79 years ago, this battleship left port for the last battle.

Fun fact, you could literally die of shockwaves by just standing near the main cannon when it fires. I mean, most battleships are like that too tho

Germany and Japan both had these extremely powerful Battleships that outclassed anything the allies could throw at them. But both made the same mistake. They sent them out with only a small escort. Bismarck only had 1 heavy Cruiser, and Yamato only had a small handful of escorts. Imagine what they could have done in the battles that destroyed them had they had a full strike force with Subs, Destroyers, and Cruisers.

Bismarck was not as powerful as popular media makes her out to be. She was outclassed in firepower by battleships like Colorado, Nelson, and Nagato, and outclassed in armor by ships like Richelieu, Nelson, and King George V

The lesson here is very simple. Even the greatest battleship ever created will fail when employed incorrectly. Tactically the ship was employed incorrectly. As such, it was doomed to fail.

For military and naval nerds, many many ships are loved and highly regarded, but few hold such reverence as Yamato, Iowa and Bismark.

Iowa's best chance at victory would be a hit and run strategy. She could try her best to sneak up on Yamato, and hope her radar doesn't detect her, and hit and either sink or heavily damage Yamato before she could fire back. However, the second Yamato would return fire, her best chance at survival would be to run, as Yamato's accurate 18.11 inch guns could easily slide through Iowa's weak armor, and could potentially one shot the Iowa with a lucky shot.

yes but she was going to beach herself so sinking it was impossible only taking out her main batteries and stuff would work which was very hard.

I remember training and being used to train special combat teams. We had to rig a house (training hut) that they were going to breach at some stage there was three short hallways to various rooms. Our Sgt came into the building with a box and in it was some spools of 60lb fishing line and about 50 1in fishing hooks. We rigged the halls according to his instruction. As the highly trained team approached us they were surprised when we pulled on 20 lines containing stringed hooks lifting them among their rank and the dancing hooks grabbed at their clothing and gear leaving them exposed in the hallway and they more they shifted about the more they became entangled. By pulling on the anchors (pieces of broom handle) and we were able to pull them over. The allied forces built monsters to carry flies and the Yam got caught in the hooks.

I don't like war. Because such a beautiful ship will break.

The pinnacle of battleship design is an understatement. Remember that it was designed with slide rules in 1935 or thereabouts. That was 85 years ago. Now it is missiles and aircraft.
