Yamato, named after the ancient Japanese Yamato Province, was a battleship of the Imperial Japanese Navy during World War II. Flagship of the Japanese Combined Fleet, she was lead ship of the Yamato class. She and her sister ship, Musashi, were the largest and heaviest battleships ever constructed, displacing 72,800 tonnes at full load, and armed with nine 46 cm (18.1 inch) main guns. Constructed from 1937-1940 and formally commissioned in late 1941, Yamato served as the flagship of Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto throughout 1942, first sailing as part of the Combined Fleet during the Battle of Midway in June 1942.
One of two of the world's largest battleships ever built for modern naval warfare, the 839-foot long, nearly 72,000 tons Yamato bristled with devastating armament that included 18.1-inch main battery guns, 6- and 5-inch turret guns, and 162 1-inch anti-aircraft guns. During her service, she sailed against allied naval forces throughout the South Pacific, most notably in the Battle of Midway and several engagements in the Philippines, including the Battle off Samar--arguably one of the largest naval battles in history. In the final, desperate months of WWII, the mighty Yamato met a fiery end at the hands of allied naval 'Task Force 58' off the coast of Okinawa, Japan during Operation Ten-Ichi-Gı--a suicide mission that would have had the Yamato beach herself near Okinawa to become a fortified gun battery against invading American forces.
