- The Yamato is the biggest warship ever constructed, How would this mighty battleship, the Yamato from the 1940s compete against a modern day destroyer? Would it stand a chance?

What if the Yamato was upgraded with modern Radar etc though?
The resource that kind of modification requires will be enough to produce more modern destroyers. Therefore, it would probably be 1 upgraded Yamato vs 10 modern destroyers, which means that there would be hundreds of anti-ship missiles flying toward Yamato in the first few minutes of the battle. That would be enough to destroy its radar and guns and kill a huge number of sailors who are supposed to operate the ship.
So...not a Yamato then? 🤔
Missiles still outrange guns, even if radar was better the guns wouldnt reach
No disrespect to Japan, but Yamato would have no answer for a destroyer and would be at it's mercy.
Unless the destroyer had tactical nukes the yamato would open it up like a giant can opener
Yamato is going to the bottom. Fill the VLS with tomahawk cruise missiles, stand off 500 miles and obliterate the battleship!
The author forgot one important detail. The armor penetration of Harpoon missiles is approximately 6 inches. Their warhead is identical to the 8-inch semi-armor-piercing projectile in weight and other characteristics. The rocket's speed is only 0.8M, while the projectile's is 2M at the moment of impact.
The battleship's armor is designed to withstand hits from projectiles with 20-50 times the energy and is 14-18 inches thick. Yes, missiles will cause heavy damage to auxiliary caliber guns and upper unarmored superstructures. But the conning tower, main caliber towers, citadel, ship control and gun guidance systems will be intact. The firing range for main caliber guns is approximately 22 nautical miles. At a distance of 14 miles, the ship can fire based on data from optical rangefinders. Modern cruisers and destroyers are tin boxes filled with explosives and fragile mechanisms. One high-explosive shell is enough to cause catastrophic damage. The battleship fires 9 shells in one salvo. 18 rounds per minute at the highest rate of fire.
You forgot that arleigh burk class also carries tomahawk cruise missiles can be turn into anti ship missiles if situation calls for it
Never though the Yamato was nearly this advance. Epic 🤩
Yeah, I didn't expect it. This is epic, please make more.
A battleship is made to fight another battleship
18 in gun is not a good weapon vs a destroyer. Yamato tried in 44 and the shell passed through the destroyer without exploding
That was because they were using armor piercing shells and thought the destroyer was actually a cruiser.
The destroyer (USS Johnston) was fatally damaged by three first- salvo hits.
@@manilajohn0182 Not fatally but heavily. But was still capable of fighting other ship despite heavy damage
@@davidskr4924 The hits reduced Johnston's speed enough to ensure that in that situation (surrounded by enemy warships), she was not going to escape. I referred to it as fatal damage on that basis. Whether or not the three hits alone would have eventually resulted in Johnston's sinking is something which has never been resolved. To be clear- I'm not saying that Yamato alone sunk Johnston, as other vessels participated in her sinking.
The 40mm would simply bounce off the side of Yamato.
The top will be destroyed
If older battleships are fitted with new anti-missile systems, then they can be stopped lol. They would shoot those down get close enough and bang. They cannot shoot down shells. Morden ship will simply run out of missiles to fire, and would be running away 😅
There are more tomahawk cruise missiles on the Modernized USS Iowa class
Basically High School Fleet reference
The British actually had 18 inch guns on a ship in WW1.
Nice
In this case the DDG would fire fires lol
Yamato had 4 turrets ??? Are you kidding me?
Holy volume level
Can a destroyer intercept shells fired at it by a battleship?
Not possible
CIWS: I beg to differ
no..
With missile maybe it can
If the destroyer was aware of the incoming shells and had its targeting radar facing towards the projectiles, yes.
If Yamato can just move in for the kill
What are your thoughts?
Just need new radar, and automatic air defence, that can shoot down the missiles. While the morden ship cant shoot down the shells
Single modern destroyer missile can easily sink yamato without a knowing who and what have hit them
bruh what if a modern destroyer is very close to yamato
@@gamersparadise7014 which would rarely happen in this day and age. We have advanced quite a lot in terms of radar and thus a destroyer would always know yamato's location and would purposefully avoid it's range. But yeah in close range, Yamato could very well clap any destroyer.
Did you know that ww2 battleship are better than this pathetic destroyers
Battleship have armor that can ricochet rockets and missiles
@@fedelidadteruel4364 Ricochet... no - remember missiles explode. But the armor of the Yamato at the belt line definitely would absorb the impact. Now if they were able to target below the belt line or come in through the top decking then it potentially would start taking serious damage.
Dumb question here: were Yama's AA batteries and systems taken in account?
Just asking
Wouldn’t even matter. missiles would be too fast and DD is too far away.
The anti aircraft systems had a lot of difficulty with anything coming in at a steep angle. Tomahawk missiles coming in at near vertical and 500+ mph would be much tougher to stop than a dive bomber.
Destroyer always wins
I'm a minute in and I know that Yamato was "the" biggest not "one of" the biggest shios built by Japan and that it had 9 not 12 main guns.
You called the Yamato the Bismarck at 2:35ish, just an fyi lol
Meh same thing one torpedo exploding near the propellors would have both helplessly sailing in circles while the Destroyer dances around them outside of the battleships weapon range both battleships might as well be the same thing.... target practice.
Without GPS how effective will a Destroyers missles be
The Harpoon missile is guided by an on-board RADAR. I don't know enough about the interaction of the Tomahawk missile's system, but it has RADAR and terrain contour mapping on top of inertial guidance. As far as I know, it, like most GPS guided systems that have alternatives, can disengage the GPS component if the GPS uplink is jammed.
Rip destroyer
guys try to watch the last ship s5: e:10
If American destroy are fitted woth Tomahawk Cruise Missile, that will destroy the,Yanato nail Engine and 3rd Rear turrent above the Armour belt penetrat.
If modern day destroyer make a duel to yamato at 500 meters distànce destroyer cant win without gps and sattelite feed location data.
Not true, a modern day destroyer has far longer range and high-fidelity RADAR and two helicopters to help locate if absolutely necessary.
Bismark?! Whut?
358 Aircraft. Just sayin...
The American Battleship Iowa Class will sink like Yamato if faced off by Russian Battle Cruiser Kirov class.
Russia is losing the naval war to a country that doesn’t have a navy
If a Yamato class battleship was built with all the technology the US has to offer how could a destroyer stand a chance.
Thats not really the point of this thought exercise though.
