The Yamato was the flagship of the Yamato class of Japanese Battleship, one of the biggest on the seas of her time. She was built with her sister ship, the battleship called Musashi. Built by the Kure Naval Arsenal, she was 836 feet long and weighed 72,800 tons. Laid down on the 4th of November 1937, she was launched August 8th, 1940, and commissioned December 16th, 1941. The Yamato was named after the Yamato Province in Japan, she was Japan’s only hope of destroying the allied fleets off the coast of Okinawa, she was outfitted with 9 18.1-inch cannons. However, without the proper air covering and fuel her last assignment was doomed to be a suicide mission, struck by 19 American Arial Torpedoes the crew of the mighty Yamato watched and fought back in horror is their ship sunk. 2,498 men out of the 3,332 crew members died that day. They didn’t go down without a fight however, the Yamato went into battle as a “naked battleship” without any cover from aircraft, after only two hours of fighting the Yamato and 5 other Japanese ships had been sunk, over 4,000 people lost their lives in the battle. It took 10 American aircraft to sink the mighty battleship. Today the Yamato is seen as the most feared battleship in the Japanese navy in WWII.
You should take a look at From the Depths. It can be a bit complex at times, but you can have vehicles with FULL AI, and they actually blow up rather than get scratched. Plus, plenty of Workshop stuff to try out. Planes, Boats, Submarines, Helicopters, Airships, Tanks
@@toonvantatenhove7283 it was actually bombed multiple times before the torpedoes hit, the aerial bombardment by the Americans resulted in the magazine detonation.
Another fun fact: There were three main classes that were planned to be bigger than HIJN Yamato, which came in at 263 meters, but never made it to production. 1. The Montana Class Battleship. Made by the U.S, the Montana class would be 17 meters longer than Yamato, at 280 meters long. Yamato displaced 65,000 tons, Montana would displace 70,000. 2. The KMS H41. Essentially a scaled up Bismarck, H41 was 282 meters long, and displaced 68,000 tons. For anyone who decided to scroll down, you get lucky! Bonus Information: HIJN Musashi, sister to HIJN Yamato, was marginally larger than Yamato. Sadly, I can't find information for just how much larger she was.
just one problem there turrets go pew pew soo they wont fall off these things have the power to go through the jungle's surface like the ones they where operating near so they don't wat to shoot 1 round an lose the entire thing
bit of history: IJN Yamato was sunk a few miles off the coast of Okinawa during the massive US invasion. She was part of Operation Ten-Go and was supposed to beach herself and act as a massive floating fortress. US submarines spotted her and her task force which resulted in over 300 US aircraft to launch and attack the fleet. Yamato was hit so much that the japanese attempted to counter flood the other side but that only bought the ship around 30 mins of life before she capsized and broke in two from the largest magazine detonation on any warship. This detonation was caused by loose shells colliding with each other and the sides of the magazine.
The IJN Yamato was one of three 'Super Battleships' and it along with the sister ship Musashi were the largest battleships in the world and the only ships fitted with the massive 18.1in cannons. According to the story, the bombs dropped at Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941 were actually armor-piercing shells from Yamato and Musashi that had been modified to be fitted under aircraft and dropped as bombs. The Yamato was also the pride of the Japanese Imperial Navy. So much so that on her bow the Emperor of Japan had his seal, a chrysanthemum, made of solid gold, affixed to show that the Yamato was as much his ship as it was Japan's. Kinda how like the USS Houston was President Franklin D. Roosevelt's favorite warship. Bit of history, USS Houston was in the Japanese Navy's 'Bingo Book' meaning that every time Japanese forces spotted her they made every attempt to sink her and numerous false messages were sent out claiming 'Mr. President, we have sunk your ship!' Yet Houston remained in the conflict until finally being sunk during the Battle of Sunda Strait in 1942 as part of the ABDA (America, Britain, Dutch (Netherlands), Austrailia command alliance) rout. The Japanese, so infuriated by this ship's constant escapes and near-misses, machinegunned the crew in the water as they escaped their sinking ship. Her Captain, Albert Rooks, received the Medal of Honor for his heroics and the ship's chaplain, George Rentz, was awarded the Navy Cross when he gave his life jacket to another crewman in the water who couldn't swim. In some ways, the story of the Yamato and Musashi are similar to the Bismarck and Tirpitz with the exception that both ships died fighting while Bismarck was sunk fairly quickly at the start of the war and Tirpitz hid in a river for the rest of the war. The third ship of the class, Shinano, was converted to be an aircraft carrier after the events of Midway but was sunk by the USS Archerfish, a Balao-class diesel submarine while moving to a new harbor for final fitting and arming.
When you mention the chrysanthemum seal, actually one of those was fitted to the bow of, as I recall, all IJN battleships and aircraft carriers. Aside from that…wow, thanks for the history! (:
@@aceofspadesattorney The Yamato's was solid gold however and, if I recall, still lies with the remains of the wreck which is protected under war grave status.
@@eaststarling7805 Nope, I am a historian (albeit a hobbyist) but I genuinely find history interesting and my biggest area of interest is the period between 1890-1950. I will admit to using Wikipedia and some other history books in my research on the subject but my statement is entire my own words and I am simply sharing the knowledge.
the hilarious thing is that when the Yamato was bombed and torpedoed to death, it actually began listing to the side and eventually capsized. While it capsized it's gun magazines exploded for some strange reason no-one knows and it blew the beautiful ship in half. so, I'd say this video is 50% historically accurate.
Dang I hope there's going to be some more battleships like Bismarck USS Missouri and the rest of the Iowa class battleships and destroyers cruisers and heavy cruisers and aircraft carriers because that would be cool
Hey, Cam? How does it feel, to be on WW2's most powerful battleship, huh? Here, you're the captain of the IJNS Yamato, the colossal 75000 ton giant, the pride of Imperial Japan...
This ship had one weakness... It was vulnerable to air attacks. The American forces knew this, and that's why, both Musashi and Yamato were sunk by like, 200 fighter jets.
Fun fact, the Yamato was sunk by over 200 aircraft since it was the largest battleship ever built on the planet with guns that weigh more than a fletcher class destroyer
guess they found out my favorite ship.And yes i know all the history about this ship ;D.If someone wants to know where i learnt that from,this is the game: World Of Warships :))))
the thing is that Yamato looked like it was sinking more like its sister when it was bombed in this video, and what ship i am talking about is the Musashi. she sank before the Yamato...

It's almost like a reenactment, huh?
To add on a bit Japan told an admiral that they had spotted a us spy plan and shot at it. But I had no idea about a sub spoting it.
We need two battleships duking it out.
All we need now is the Bismarck and hood
Don't forget the Missouri

@@YourLocalMusketMan yeah didnt it sink after the of battle midway
Definitely want to see Yamato in a multiplayer
The IJN Yamato is one of my favorite battleship thanks for making a video :)

well, if this was the musashi i would say 80% accurate.
yes
@The three strikes yea thats the reason
Can we all agree on this? When Camodo uploads our day get a million times better.
FIREING AT A HOSPITAL IS ONE OF THE WORST WAR CRIMES YOU CAN COMMIT. In my books at least
Eyyyy! Amazing to see all of my best childhood youtubers still here!
I want to see this ship in bad waves and a bad storm.
i wish that he did the yamato in the kracken
If the ammo stowage was actually in the compartments. The Yamato might split up after a huge explosion
If you see this I love your vids
It would be absolutely awesome to have two crews in battleships all out fightin in the sea
i just noticed the yamato in this game sunk historically like the musashi did by the same cause of bombs. kinda epic
yea
and maybe a pearl harbor or midway battle
Camodo: One shell from yamato will destroy a AI ship
Historians: Yes a 18 inch Shell will kill them
Yeah I Can Take'em Out But I Need To Aim Properly So I Can Destroy It Easily With One Shot
"Theres a hospital over there I'm sure that's not a war crime." Best quote I've heard today.
I'm a Big Fan Of Naval History And I Like This
The yamato had severe damage in real life it was hit by 15 bombs and 3 torpedos and you are right on the saying comodo
No Wrong I Got Hit By 11 Torps And 15 Bombs 6 On The Port,5 At The Starboard Side

YAY YAMATO IS MY FAVORATIE BATTLESHIP
Battle the bismark vs yamato in multiplayer
I loved the classic dramatic song!!!! keep up the good work!
They should make it so where if it hits the Magazines the ship splits in half in that area
Imagine getting 40 people and getting 2 yamato's and doing a 20v20 ship battle
That is actually how the real Yamato sink but with Torpedoes and like 5250 bombs
Yamato power!!!!
That fact that this is accurate to the way it actually sank
I think the sinking part was from the musashi not the Yamato 👌

13 bombs and around 9 torpedos

Imagine if everything camodo did happend irl! Edit: someone else said this in another video, oh no 🙊pls dont heart me i don’t deserve it
Looks like you didn’t.
this sank like the musashi!
It was also the biggest baddest warship made
i have a model yamato and wen the allies saw the yamato they would try to run i do really recomend reading more about it
