⚓⚓⚓
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. There's a mountain of knowledge just below the surface. Press "Play!"

天皇陛下万歳！
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.
You're father died like a true Samurai, even at impossible odds your father and Yamato protected the country they loved
Your story touches my heart. I know that you will see your mother and father again, together.
Respect and best wishes from India
Its sad story :(
With best wishes from Canada.
"Yamato is the ancient name for Japan. It means 'Great Harmony'."
What a fitting name for a 263 meters long behemoth, that shoots 460mm shells with the weight of a small car.
Hahahh wtf
263 meters long??? I don't think so. Thats longer than American modern Aircraft Carriers.
@@captjoe25 the length of the gerald r. ford class: roundabout 333meters, maybe they're longer than you expect?
even the ww2 japanese carrier akagi (260m) or the cv-2, lexingtons length were quite similar/ longer than the yamato.
btw, it's not a question of honor, it's just a matter of fact.
and at the end it's obsolete. sure, even size matters. but only the balancing of armour, armament, speed, crew and competent leading, naval and military, makes a random ship a good, hopeful surviving ship.
I think you probably had meters mixed up with feet. You know how long 300 meters is? I've been to the USS IOWA and Yamato is close to the length of the IOWA. The IOWA is about the length of a football field about 260 meters more or less.
@@NeunExtraleben , correction , yamato is about 270 meters or a most 3 football fields in length slightly longer than the USS IOWA.
The Yamato has a special place in my heart since my late grandfather was an English teacher who tutored admiral Yamamato's children. Coincidentally, my ex's great uncle was onboard the Musashi when she sunk. He had some interesting stories about floating around in the shark infested waters. May they all rest in peace.

Ain't that the truth. Well stated.
I have been to the Yamato Museum and seen the 80 ft model (located in Hiroshima). It was an impressive site. Even though I was American, the tour guide (a former Yamato Crewman) was polite and very informative. It left me with a feeling of awe and a great love for the Japanese people and their nation.
The tour guide was a former Yamato crewman??? aam.. you're joking right!? Coz he got to have been 93+ years old.. Yeah, I don't want to call you a liar, but I guess I kinda am? Plz explain yourself so that we both can sleep better tonight..😅
@@Superknullisch The poster could have visited a long time ago, there were a couple of hundred or so survivors.
@@Superknullisch if that keeps you up at night, you must have a very weak disposition
But did you see the exhibit upstairs about the Space Battleship Yamato? :)
Gintama hahaha
The Yamato is and always will be my most favorite battleship of all time, and she is absolutely gorgeous. She's like the imperial star destroyer, Devistator, but on water. Even Vader would be very impressed.
Vader can visit it on the bottom of the Pacific! 🤣😂🤣🤣😂🤣🤣😂🤣🤣😂🤣🤣😂🤣
The fact that this documentay is made by a videogame company is just amazing.
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...
Imagine if Battleship Yamato survived the war. It would be one heck of a site to see in person.
Cargo Ships make it look small now. It's insane.
I was thinking the same thing. I'd love to see that huge model. She was a magnificently beautiful battleship.
Like when Yamato survive this it's very probably that the US navy destroy it.
@@sloanNYC Modern day cargo ships make all naval ships look small. 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.
Paul Allen would have bought it.
Yamato, right ship, wrong time

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.
Jun Shibata
Thank you. The Yamamoto was, from what I've read, a source of Japanese National pride. Ironically the demise of the ship were by the archers of the day, the airplane.
@@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.
I heard the Japanese refuelling crew refused the order for half capacity and gave the Yamato full fuel.
@@georgelindley6752
Very possible as the sailors could have known the one-way, delaying of their action. However, there was little oil available to anyone. It would have taken a lot of favors to get that much fuel. Let's check with Jun Shibata. Jun, please.

Hey, Remake of Space battleship Yamato is still worthy to be called Yamato relative lol
So not all of it are shipgirl
I'm surprised they didn't mention that Yamato's main guns were so heavy, the Japanese had to design and built a specialized ship (Kashino) to transport it
IKR no land vehicle that time could carry yamatos main guns
Also kashino best cow wife
@@fatcatthemechabuilder8637 well... there was a german ammunition carrier that could hold massive projectiles at the time, you'd just need an insanely upscaled version of it

That scale model is AWESOME!

You guys should seriously consider growing this Naval Legends series. Its just brilliant!!
***** this shit should be on the history channel
***** i almost cried when i saw Yamato sinking.
+Raptor0348 no, they would have to turn it into a crappy reality show to put it on "history" channel.
+Captain Foxy the Pirate (Foxy the Pirate Fan) me too, it was soo sad :/ wish it didnt end that way, crappy ending for such a mighty ship, if it was to go down, it should be in a massive ship on ship battle heavily outnumbered, not on a air attack
The last true Battleship that went down screaming in a fight against other Battleships was Kirishima. The majority of them were either lost throughout the war by subs or airstrikes.
Yamato in WoWS is a viking funeral ship. Fires, fires everywhere.
Orkel2 yamato in reality was pretty useless too. Too big.
+Yoman 38 dont call a women fat
+Yoman 38 How can a ship be too big?

Yoman 38 so any ship bigger than a heavy cruiser...
Yamato and her whole crew passed away protecting their beloved country. They died like a true samurai, standing alone in front of thousands of enemies.
She was fleeing home and effectively did nothing to defend the homeland. The part about standing alone in front of thousands of enemies is true though, but no, she didn't get to protect anything. Very expensive, outdated, and underused.
What about pearl?
@@LeBronKK where do you get "outdated"? She launched in 1940.
@@watchgoose relative to her contemporaries, she was practically stone age
@@LeBronKK Unfortunately it was true. She might have been a beast but at the time she was used, far too vulnerable.
The level of craftsmanship that created this monster was ahead of it's time.
That's an island in itself. Some people truly don't understand the sheer size of the Yamato 💀
It took 4 aircraft carriers and about 250 planes to take her down
386 planes to take her down. There was a lot more aircraft than the video described. Yamato also took far more damage than described in the video, around 6-7 bombs and 11-13 torpedoes. Her sistership Musashi took 17 bombs and 19-20 torpedoes.
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...
@@korana6308 A battleship is not simply "a ship meant for battle", it is a large warship equipped with powerful guns and armor, of which Yamato was the largest of. These types of warships haven't been built since the 1940s due to aircraft carriers, destroyers, and submarines making them obsolete.
@@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.
@@metaknight115 when we dropped little boy they understood, when we dropped fatman they surrendered
As a Naval Officer (US Navy) who took part in 118 combat missions over three wars, I have utmost respect for the people that I, politically, had to fight against. They were professional officers just like me fighting for a different ideology but they were professional officers, highly educated (I had a Masters at the time), and they were protecting their "way of life" or more likely... their families... just like I was doing on my own side.
I despise the suffering and the fact that many books, narratives, and/or movies depict either one of us as the "good" or as the "bad" guys.
Ciao, L
lancelot1953 So unit 731 was perfectly fine, right? Yeah, people can do whatever they want as long as they have families!
@@paulalexandre3358 Hi Paul I am not sure that I understand your comments - I saw my share of killing in my years of combat, it does not imply that I approve of it.
Usually, the political/leading forces that declare wars are not the sailors/soldiers/airmen who will have to fight them or the civilians that will have to suffer them.
There has to be a better way to resolve conflicts. I am by no means stating that some "maniacs" (regardless of allegiance) do not enjoy killing, torturing, etc. - they should be shot but many military and civilians are caught in the middle, Peace be with you, Ciao, L
lancelot1953 I guess I do agree with you. I mistook your statement as a denial that the Japanese did anything wrong, my mistake.

Both: "Alien War"
Hey Shaggy where is scooby?
Give it 5-15yrs... the "Alien" info will increase in it's intrigue and relevance.
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.
First of all idk if Japan at that time could really afford to give yamato a large escort anyways
and 2nd of all dont imagine anything, regardless of the escorts (which were if anything only usefull against submarines) the yamato would have all perished the same way by the US carrier planes
To be fair, Japan was really low on ships. They couldn't really give more escorts to the Yamato.
Wrong ! Krieg Marine wasn't at all ready ! Prinz Eugen and Bismarck were Nazi's most powerful battleships but weren't able to fight a modern warfare with aircraft coming from a much farther range.
more like air support is needed than submarine, destroyers and cruisers. the yamato has i think around 9 ships with her. i dont think it is possible to win this air raid without any air support when they are against 11 aircraft carriers
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
大和型以上に最高にかっこよく最高に強い艦は存在しない。

Air attack that´s fair fight. FACE TO FACE YAMATO WAS KING
I like how they refer to Yamato as "she"
Tell to that to the Iowa class battleships lol
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.
if i have a time to travel in japan i eagerly want to visit the yamato museum it's a holy grail for me
Yamato ... It's a symbol of the great warship cannonism that battleship lovers in this world once know.
For military and naval nerds, many many ships are loved and highly regarded, but few hold such reverence as Yamato, Iowa and Bismark.
I am one such naval nerd, and I'm proud!
I'd add the Hood to that list.
Why is Mushashi always ignored? She was the sister ship to Yamato.
@@paullewis2413 Musashi was quite literally the little sister though. No disrespect to her but she weighed nearly 1000 tons less, and had less AA protection. She was an amazing fortress in her own right but shes not quite Yamato just as Missouri might be the more celebrated but shes not Iowa.
Iowa didn't do shit in the war lol, next
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.
You realize that by releasing this you get people excited to play Yamato. Then they join the game and realise they will need to grind for 10,000 hours to get tier X... and they quit.

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.
It will be reborn as a “space battleship” (宇宙戦艦ヤマト, Uchū Senkan Yamato) in about 75 years.

at the bottom sir.. at the bottom.... true look
Enterprise proved to be "unsinkable" if there is such a thing.
Sup floor gang!!

Forty-two years ago, in 1979, there used to be this cartoon “Starblazers” that dealt with an ancient battleship Yamato. It was converted to a space ship called the “Argo,” and was sent 148,000 light years and back in just one earth year to save the earth. This ship was equipped with a “wave motion gun,” along with many other armaments.
日本での「宇宙戦艦ヤマト」ですね。
リメイクされたアニメシリーズも出ています。
Yamato is eternity.
大和は永遠なり。
As a submarine maybe.
三笠のある地元に住んでて、軍艦好きで、WoTは元からやってたけどWoWS出た時は凄いワクワクした
Wargamingが細かい所まで考証して大和を作ってくれて日本人として艦船好きとしてほんとに嬉しいわ
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.
My dad was always big in WWII history. He never got into the Japanese side (for obvious reasons) and I've never seen anything about the Yamato until now. But upon finding this, GOD I'M IN LOVE WITH JAPANESE BATTLESHIPS. That thing was terrifying looking. Too bad (or is it?) that it was so slow and inefficient.
When I was a kid ? We would race home to watch STAR BLAZERS a Japanese cartoon based on this legendary ship !! Originally entitled 'Space Battle Ship Yamotto' ..man when I tell you it was THE SHOW to watch ? Believe me it had a massive following !! (Star Blazers) and ( Battle Of The Planets ) were the TWO best shows and at the forefront of Japanese Animation. Get a hold of a copy and see for yourself great story too !!
And 29 years later, he is tasked with flying in space.

Wow... You guys have totally and truly filled the void that History Channel left us when they decided to ditch REAL history and go all in on "reality non-history" crap. I hope you keep up the good work with your videos.
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.
This DOCUMENTARY, the effects, narration, music etc are very good.
That scale model of the ship is incredible.

Wish the video talked more about Musashi in regards to the death of them both, Musashi took an absurd amount of damage before going.
IJN Nagato Still helping IJN Mutsu recover from her turret explosion?
IJN Nagato it is called navel legends yamato not navel legends yamato and musashi so ya
I think they really could have fit it in though. Not many people know anything about Musashi and it was a long video to explain that Yamato sailed out and immediately got torped to death. It was great and entertaining, but they could have explained Musashi as well.
Musashi's death was overshadowed by the Battle of Samar next day. It never did get much attention. One would expect more.
They sunk Musashi with more ammunition is because they haven't experience against Yamato class.
A giant steel coffin for 3,000 young men. RIP.
What a huge waste of material and human resource in the end, on both side of the war.
@@LHKKKing Wars work that way.
the strategy was to capsize the boat and kill the maximum number of japanese.
@@jamesdunn9714 thats why War its Hell no matter what.
That's how mafia works
If Humanity didn’t have question on “How do we fly like a bird” Yamato definitely will fight Iowa
USS IOWA VS IJN YAMATO
The Battle Of Pacific
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.
Thank you very much for the audio track in Brazilian Portuguese, I love Wargaming's work I always learn with WOWS and Naval Legends about naval forces from WW and WW2.
Yamato battleship: Life like a king, Leave as a legend
When the pointless death of 4000 men, combined with the destruction of a great ship sent on a one-way kamikaze mission, is perceived as glorious . . . we can only thank our lucky stars -- and the gallantry of the Allied fighters -- that Japan did not succeed in building its empire.
@@johntechwriter but, the Pearl Harbour is weakened as the result. Yamato didn't die in vain.
@@dreoutcasting4415 and the Americans repaired and replace the losses after the attack like 4-5 months lmao
How many other ships destroyed?
Even Yamato was sunk, but still, LEGENDS NEVER DIE!!!
As a Navy and Vietnam combat veteran I enjoy the education every time I see one of these 'gems'. The one thing I would like to see is a documentary on the inner workings of these ships; from the galley to the living compartments, during the time of replenishments and battles (like 'Das Boot'), etc,.
I can't imagine the horrors of that war and the mental aftermath. I hope you found peace
I'd also be interested in documentaries about the inner workings and life onboard such ships. Too many feature the mechanical, but forget the human side of the story. I've seen a few videos posted by sailors showing the inside, and that architecture is something to behold.
@@xunk16 'Sailors' not soldiers! Just sayin'.
@@MajorWolfgangHochstetter Here corrected. Sorry. French tends to consider that sailors in the navy are still soldiers. But since this was about US ships, I guess you'd be right.
@@xunk16 As a Navy veteran, I know I am! No disrespect intended!
"Pretty sad. But I see why the Yamato Anime is so popular." (-James)
Can we just talk how realistic the graphics are ITS NOT EVEN A GAME ANYMORE ITS REAL
this was 7 years ago btw, so that's how you know visual stuff has advanced... check out ultimate admirals dreadnoughts, that looks amazing. not an ad, just look at a few screenshots of combat in that and you'll see why i like it so much. it's so nice looking
when a gaming company does a better and more accurate documentary than actual history teachers
They haven't though. The end at least is completely false, she made it to her destination, beached herself and fired everything she had as intended. It was a kamikaze mission. She sank doing exactly what she was ordered to do
@@theryanplant Yamato never got close to Okinawa. Learn history before you type.
Even the model is imposing.
+AngryTech That's a battleship for you. Big fuckin' guns
Too bad i will never hear any battleship firing it's guns

Saw the flashes and heard the thunder of the Missouri and the Wisconsin in Desert Storm.

I'm a Filipino from the Philippines i"ve lived almost 19 yrs. in japan when i was 17.i've been watching Yamato animation since 4~5 yrs. old in the philippines and i treated them as a hero. Watching this video made me learned more about Yamato history. Tears was dropping i don't know this feeling of why i praised and admired Yamato so much? Perhaps adopting little japanese culture made me sense that Yamato was the their Hope and Savior being the strongest or mightiest military asset of that time but only to regret and suffer destruction was unacceptable for them that's is why until now Yamato lives in every heart of them and I felt it too😢😭
Ayeeeee I am a Filipino to
I love Germany 🇩🇪 &Japan 🇯🇵💪
I sometimes think that whether Japanese were planning to win the war or the beauty contest. Why is she so beautiful?

@@maximusy8311
Japan Battleship
A year ago when I started playing that game (that I do my best not to mention to often around WoWS players), I thought I had developed an interest in warships and naval history as a result of some misguided delusion. It turns out, odd as it may be, it wasn't destructive, nor was it anything new.
I recently found an encyclopedia of ships dating back to 95, when I was in kindergarden.
I grew up visiting the Massachusetts every summer and hearing stories of the Axis ships from those who fought them.
After I started playing, I came to a point where I decided to admit it to my father, and feared that he wouldn't approve of me playing due to the nature and content of it.
It turns out he built several ship models in his youth including Bismarck and Missouri, but his pride and joy above all others was Yamato, which he considered the most beautiful battleship ever built. He also inadvertently inspired my love of anime.
So I've always had this connection. It just took an unlikely source to remind me of it.
Ever since I've had this rediscovery of the love I had as a kid playing on the decks of my ships, like I understand them better for walking a mile in their enemies' shoes.
Kapal terbaik yg pernah di bikin yamato 🇯🇵🇯🇵😎😎
Also known as the "Hotel Yamato" in some circles within the Japanese Imperial Navy. So called because she spent so much time at anchor in protected harbors and rarely ever saw action.

What a great mini documentary! Had heard about this ship of course but neat to learn of its relatively brief history. What a model and honorable way to remember those who fought.
I once saw a Fubuki trying to tow a Yamato...
It didn't went anywhere.
KC
hahahahaha...
hereLiesThisTroper+ i know that. A fubuki is towing a yamato near the shore and trying to make it sail but cant cuz yamato said she was hungry so it did not go anywhere
I read that as "Fubuki trying to tow a Tomato" lol.
As a teenager I helped my brother build a model of Yamato. Truly a beautiful ship.
大和といえば最近読んだ
双葉社「真実の戦艦大和」は個人的にとっても面白かったよ。
自分自身がいままで見落としていただけかもしれないけど
「萎縮の産物」としての大和
と言うのが面白かった。
軍令部(どんな軍艦が欲しいか決めるところ)と艦政本部(実際に軍艦を設計するところ)が激しくやりあって、ちっとも纏まらない。
軍令部「大砲いっぱい積んでスピードの速い戦艦作って!!」
艦政本部「そんなの無理にきまってんじゃん！これくらいでどう？」
軍令部「そんな戦艦じゃ使い物にならない!!
じゃあ大砲はこれくらいでスピードはこれくらい…」
艦政本部「ああ!!ダメったら!!
そんなの作れないって!!」
そこに第四艦隊事件発生。
無理な軍艦の設計で事故が起きる。
軍令部「こ、これくらいの戦艦でいいよ…」
艦政本部「じゃ、じゃあそれくらいで…」
軍令部は自分たちの過剰な要求のせいで事故が起きたとシュンとなり。
艦政本部は自分たちの設計した軍艦が事故を起こしてシュンとなる。
そして「大和」の設計がまとまる。
(「真実の戦艦大和」p56-57)
あと久しぶりに「重高戦」「新高戦」という言葉をみた。(同p52)
言葉のまんま「重高速戦艦」「新高速戦艦」の意味だとおもう。
そうそう大和が第一艦隊第一戦隊だったから最前線で活躍出来なかったんだよね。(同p92)
以下、オレの認識…（汗）
第一艦隊
「やあ!!オレたち第一艦隊!!
連合艦隊主力の戦艦部隊だぜ!!
大和が「戦艦」として建造され
第一艦隊に配属され心強いぜ!!
は？
ガ島に艦砲射撃？
空母の護衛？
ナンノハナシデスカ？
オレたち第一艦隊は艦隊決戦のための「決戦兵力」だぜ！？
すべてを決める大勝負しか出撃しないの!!
あ、金剛型は好きに使っていいぜ!!」
第二艦隊
「やあ！ボクらは第二艦隊だよ!!
第一艦隊に最高の戦いをしてもらうために制空権を獲得するのがボクらの仕事。
(水雷戦隊はまた別だけど)
そのために敵の空母の飛行甲板を破壊する必要があるんだ。
とくに「蒼龍」はそのための空母なのさ。
ただ、敵の水上部隊がジャマしに来るかもしれないから火力も必要なんだ。
出来れば「大和」は第二艦隊向けの
「重高戦」として設計してほしかったなあ。」
と言う感覚でいるけど正しいのかしら？
面白かったので昔の本を引っ張りだして復習。
「大和型戦艦2」
(歴史群像、太平洋戦史シリーズ 1998年)
「第二次世界大戦 世界の戦艦FILE」
(大塚好古/著 歴史群像編集部/編 2012年)
藤本喜久雄のプランが載っててビックリだけど(同p53に写真でハッキリ20インチ砲「三聯砲塔四基」とある‼)
藤本案にどれほど影響があったか知らないけど「大和型戦艦2」p65-66に石川信吾氏のプランとして
「排水量=約五万トン
速力=30ノット以上
主砲20インチに近きもの九
防禦=二万メートル以上、三万八〇〇〇メートル以下においては、現有四〇センチ砲弾に対して絶対安全なること。
炸薬量五〇〇キロの魚雷、約一〇発の命中に対して安全なること。
建造隻数=二隻。」
とあるけど、古い本だしどうなのかなあ？
石川信吾氏が昭和8年10月21日に発表した
「次期軍備対策私見」に書かれてるらしい。
「真実の戦艦大和」p52でも触れられてる。
「真実の戦艦大和」p53では四連装砲塔については「辻褄合わせ」とのこと。
「雑誌」ではないけど「大和型戦艦2」p69に該当する箇所とおぼしき記述が…以下
「さて、「藤本案」の主砲一ニ門の配置だが、これを三連装四砲塔に分かつとニ九〇メートルの全長のうち二〇〇メートル近いものとなり搭載は不可能に近い。
そこで、四連装三砲塔となる。
(当然、第三砲塔は後ろ向き)」
とある。
別ページに四連装砲塔案の推定図もある。
買った当時、すごく興奮したけど
砲塔作れるのか？
砲塔旋回にどれくらい時間かかるのか？
砲弾の装填にどれくらいかかるのか？
色々気になってきた…。
とりあえず「真実の戦艦大和」
とても面白い本だったよ!!
(楽しくなってきて以下余談)
「もし『金剛代艦』が建造されたら!?」
(と言う妄想…)

その後すったもんだで軍縮条約脱退!!
そのため金剛代艦3番艦で打ち切り決定
3番艦は改設計のち竣工
第二艦隊「今度こそ重高戦よこせ!!」
軍縮条約脱退による新設計の戦艦建造開始
46センチ砲9門、31ノット
防御は対16インチ砲防御
第二艦隊向け「高速戦艦」
さらに、金剛代艦45口径46センチ連装砲に順次換装

あと、「サウスダコタ」と「ワシントン」がどんな戦艦になったか不明…。
そう言えば(まだ余談続くらしい…)
友人と議論になったことがある。
友人「日本海軍が(広義の)軍艦の魚雷を戦艦に命中させたことないよね」
オレ「いや、あるよ!!
第三次ソロモン海戦で
高雄と愛宕(と思った)の魚雷がアメリカの戦艦に命中してる!!
直前で自爆しちゃったけど」
わたしの説明が悪かったせいか友人に理解してもらえなかった。
今なら更にこう言うとおもう。
「戦艦を撃沈して何になる？」って。
アメリカの戦艦撃沈したって、アメリカの飛行機は飛びまわって日本の軍艦も輸送船も片っ端から撃沈させられるよ。
潜水艦も好きなように活動するよ。
もう、第二次世界大戦においては戦艦は戦争の勝敗を決めるような「戦略兵器」ではないもの、と。
3:35 Acutaully, the Shinano was modified into a aircraft carrier. However, it was sank by a US submarine before it can be deployed.
And that submarine is the USS Archerfish.
I believe she was unfinished when she was sunk. Most crucially, her water tight doors were either not installed properly, or not installed at all, and when four torpedoes hit, there was no way to stop the entire ship from flooding
She also had reduced bulge armor.
Yep, the Japanese knew that Battleships is just not that effective anymore and the cost was just too much. They converted her to an aircraft carrier, but it was soo late into the war that, it basically change nothing really.
Crazy to think she help the empire of Japan on her shoulders. RIP to all of those lost that day.
She lost over 3000 sailors and officers during her sinking
I feel bad for the brave men who died sinking this emblem of cruelty.
What on earth do you mean by 'on her shoulders'. Pearl Harbour?
@@Akashi_Takahashi 😢
like their failed socialism isnt enough that gets most of em killed
There was no hope in this ship! It didn’t even have enough fuel to return to Japan. They knew it was being sacrificed to delay invasion.
kamikaze mission
Would have loved the opportunity. The highest achievement in Japanese society at that time was to fight and die in battle in defense of one's bloodline, people and nation. Millions of ancestral spirits were with the sailors before they died guiding them into the afterlife.
@@exodiathegreat3630 I think that would be 'kami-umi' rather than kamikaze.
@David Vance Nor was attacking the US, which dwarfed the Japanese economy greatly.
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.
The IJN Yamato was the heaviest and largest warship of its time and she still holds the record for the largest command ship ever
if the Yamato was born on an era with no air craft carriers, imagine the legendary tales it could’ve had
