It's pronounced YAMATO, it was sent on a one way mission, I.E. a
KAMAKIZE MISSION, BC Japan didn't have the fuel to spare for a round trip
Ten-go, few come back
If you were attempting humor sir, may I suggest that you do NOT pursue a career in the comedy industry
@@Species5008 Well, in fairness, exactly 10 Japanese ships were present for the battle, so it's a bit ironic.
@@Species5008...AW, YOU HAVE NO SENSE OF HUMOR-!!!
@@211aonscratch4 ...THAT'S INTERESTING...
One of the key losses from that first pair of bomb hits was Yamato's flooding control station. That station was crucial to keeping the ship from capsizing, as without it, it was much harder to counterflood damage to Yamato's port side by flooding her starboard ballast tanks in coordinated fashion.
This forced the captain and staff to take drastic measures such as deliberately flooding starboard boiler rooms, which resulted in the loss of men who had sealed themselves inside the ship as part of standard battle procedure, as well as vital speed due to the loss of power from the boilers to the engines.
For warships, speed is life against incoming attacks from bombs and torpedoes. The slower the ship goes, the harder it is to dodge attacks.
Yamato was pretty much doomed once she lost that vital control station, even though she was still combat capable for quite a while afterwards.
I can only imagine how hard it would be to sink her if the flooding control station wasn't taken out so quickly. She already able to withstand two hours without it, after all
sadly, that magazine explosion was a merciful quick death to a lot of unfortunate sailors who would have drowned.
It must terrifying to have to crew the lower deck knowing that your chances of survival when the ship is sinking are slim to none
Do you suppose it was any better being on deck manning anti aircraft guns and being highly vulnerable to strafing bombers and fighters?
@@SeattlePioneer Suppose to me being trapped in a room while water slowly fills up till you drown sounds more dreadful. Plus the fact that they can deliberately flood your compartment in order to counter listing. On deck, it seems like you can at least face and anticipate the danger head on, while deep in the boiler rooms, you never know when a torpedo is about to blast through
Perhaps we can agree that none of the options for the Yamato's crew were very appealing....@@jerrykim7777
This entire operation was planned as a one-way trip to start with. Everyone was expected to die at some point.
The fact it still took two hours to sink the Yamato despite hundreds of aircraft pounding her with strafing runs, rockets, bombs, and torpedoes is a testiment to her armor.
When the Yamato blew up the explosion was so powerful it took out seven American planes flying above.
Although not certain, the explosion might have destroyed more American planes than the anti-air itself.
@@ezop3993 Three planes were lost to anti aircraft
We don’t know how many planes were felled by that explosion. We do know that a total of ten American aircraft were lost during the combined air attacks, but HOW each aircraft were lost is more of an issue.
@@kennethknoppik5408 It's not certain, but a good estimate.
The explosion was so big it could be seen from Japan
Fascinating documentary. Although sometimes I think the Japanese high command totally wasted so many of their own people's lives here.
They did, but it was more of a desperation move than a tactical one. Without any aircraft carriers, it would be difficult to launch any real offensive operation.
The fact of the matter is, that if the US takes the Philippines, they can cut off oil to Japan, effectively ending their wartime economy. So the plan was to literally beach the Yamato on Leyte and bombard the US Marines there.
We lost 10 (TEN ) aircraft and 13 men. They knew we were coming and unlike Pearle Harber we were at war.
...YOU SUMMED IT UP PRETTY WELL...(!)
This has got to be the best looking visual representation out of all documentaries out there. Looking forward to seeing more of these
A friend of my grandfather has served in the Pacific War, and said that he lost many comrades in arms in this war, but he often said that the same was true for the soldiers of the Japanese Navy, and that the soldiers of the Japanese Navy deserved respect. I was only six or so at the time. I should have listened to my grandfather's friend more.
That was one tough ship
Finaly i waited so much time to see it
The bombs and rockets were meant to take out the anti-aircraft guns.
could you also do a video on her sister? I believe she ate more torps and bombs
is likely.
Fun fact: Yamato was attack by 400 american planes
It's ain't 'fun' fact bruh, it's worst
A total of 368 aircraft were sent aloft from 15 carriers of Task Force 58, but the actual number of attacking aircraft were 227.
@@chauvuminh7337 im gonna be that one annoying guy and ask source just because theres alot of ambiguity with the details of the battle and i wanna know more
Your mom cheating on your dad thats fun
@@RicoJuan1998...THAT WAS UNCALLED FOR- AND YOU KNOW IT-(!)
Seems the ship's anti aircraft weapons were incredibly ineffective. I wonder how much training the gunners received.
The lack of proximity shells was the main issue.
The lack of proximity fuses was an issue without doubt. Added to this was the fact that the ship's 25mm anti- aircraft armament was too small a caliber to engage aircraft with a reasonable chance of bringing one down before ordinance release. Moreover, the 25mm magazines required changing so often that the effective rate of fire was barely half that of the cyclic rate of fire. Lastly, the training rate of the 25mm was too slow to track modern aircraft- and was in fact inadequate to track some 1941- era aircraft.
@@manilajohn0182 - The 25 mm weapon would only be effective at close range like the Browning .50 used on USN ships.
@@scootergeorge7089 Yeah, not until about release point for attacking aircraft. One of Yamato's officers characterized the ship's A.A. fire as "Shooting blanks". The ship's surface gunnery had unequaled accuracy by any combatant during the war- but the age of aircraft had arrived and the Japanese never appreciated that fact enough.
@@manilajohn0182 - For heavy anti-aircraft defense, the Yamato relied on a dozen 40-caliber 127 mm Type 89 dual-purpose guns in six double turrets. These would have been much more effective with proximity fused AA shells.
Please do an animated video of the 1798 British-French naval Battle of the Nile with Nelson
Hi, thanks for the suggestion. For that, I will launch a new channel.
I think Lt. Francis Ferry (LCDR Hugh Wood’s wingman) is also been interviewed regarding his actions during the Yamato’s sinking on the History Channel’s “Dogfights” TV series, episode titled “Death of the Japanese Navy”.
awesome video
...and it's PRETTY GOOD too-(!)
Excellent video
Thank you very much!
US Navy only lost 12 airplanes and 10 pilots died in actions.
Beautiful animation!
Thank you!
Great documentary and really a visual explanation on what's going on
Ι would simply put up a huge smokescreen making the sky black ..
Hotel yamato
it's like a flock of condors stalking & hunting down wounded bear
Great video!!!
Thank you!!
My comment about how inept this channel's content is had been removed. Here I am again, haha
Saying the ship broke in half doesn't convey the true nature of the magazine explosion. Curious the name Yamato is pronounced correctly but the word "bow" is pronounced "bo".
It’s pronounced bough . Yes it’s spelled bow. English is a complex language. Deal with it.
Who doesn’t know this hard to listen when normal words are messed up
...YOU SUMMED IT UP PERFECTLY-(!)
Actually it was 4 hours to sink the symbol of japans power and the yamato name is the pride of my familys clan
a wise man once said that war is hell after all...
@@crawford4140 im aware
What haooened on that faithful day?
interesting video, though you left out a lot of details and your pronunciation was off on most ship names, INCLUDING Yamato itself. It's not yah-mah-tow, it's yih-ma-tow.
Actually, it's Yuh-mah-tow
...WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO ABOUT IT?!!
Very detailed animation.
Yayyy part 2 I love your content!
1. The ship's "stem" and its "bow" are the same thing.
2. "Bow" is pronounced to rhyme with "cow", not "show" ...
...you're RIGHT-(!)
So cool
Yah-mah-toe, not Yama-toe
War of Archemides shows a very interesting back story of the Yamato's story involving a clique of Naval Officers who knew what would happen if Japan went to war with the Western Powers. This was mostly made up of officers who visited Britain, and the US and witnessed what the both industrial capabilities were. They knew that without the raw materials needed any war with Britain, US, or any western power for that matter would end in disaster. Anyway, without spoiling too much of the story they knew that Yamato was obsolete but they backed it's funding anyway. I want to say more and explain further but it's better to watch the movie. How much of the story is based on history I honestly don't know but it does reveal a whole other layer to the Japanese side of the war.

Ten ichi. Go
I can’t with the mispronunciation of the Japanese names 🤦🏽♂️ You put the emPHAsis on the wrong syllABLE.

Please correct this video to have the correct pronunciation of Yamato.
The cupcakes today would of called for a ceasefire
The Yamato was doomed from the time it left the docks... even a US BB, like the Iowa, could have eliminated it with ease. Why? Blindfire radar. 5" could have fired smoke shells to blind the Yamato's optics and then 2700 lb 16 inch shells finished the job. The Iowa was faster and all it had to do was step back anytime the Yamato got to close and keep hitting it with those very effective AP shells.
Just no way the Yamato could have made it to Okinawa. 3000+ sailors just wasted...
The Yamato's were quite accurate to in good weather and would only need to hit a Iowa class once or twice. Iowa's had internal protection the belt and deck and couldn't take many torpedo's at any place on the ship making them easier to damage and flood not so much to the point of sinking but to the point of making it a unstable gun platform and mission killing her were as the Iowa's would need to hit the yamato's more which they could do in any weather and at 1 round a min in combat 18 hells in 2 min compared to yamato's 1 round every 2 min 18 every 4 min after the first loaded salvo if not less than 1 every 2 min
Actually, the reverse is the case. None of the Iowas ever obtained a confirmed main battery hit on any warship of destroyer size or larger in WW2. Yamato OTOH, obtained four first salvo hits from over 20,000 yards off Samar- one of which was aimed soley by the ship's Type 22 radar. She also dropped two shells alongside an escort carrier from over 34,000 yards out. While neither of them likely hit the ship, one exploded- and the damage took the carrier out of front- line service for the rest of the war. The Iowas had a five- knot speed advantage over the Yamatos, and her fire control system had remote power control (which the U.S. Navy developed tactics to take advantage of during WW2). In terms of maximum and effective gun range, bursting charge, shell dispersion, danger space, armor protection, and maneuverability, the Yamato class had it all over the Iowa class. Just sayin...
FAFO.
Commentator’s mispronunciations are embarrassing. I stopped my subscription to this channel.
Hi, I have taken this seriously and I have changed the narrator.
Yam-a-toe really?????
Actually that's a correct pronunciation. YAM should have emphasis
Horrible presentation. One conguios story please. Conguios is the word here. Gunna keep watching anyway :)
Please put some effort in learning proper pronunciation
More like Operation DIE-GO...sharks feasted that day ...
