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

I was looking forward to see this ship with the weapons DLC, so awesome

As a world war 2 fanatic and a person who loves stormworks, this is the perfect mix for me😊😊

fun fact: Yamato's salvos were so big that they had to mechanize the turrets of Yamato to make use of the gigantic salvos

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.

I love episodes that are actually historically accurate

OMG this is such a realistic sinking just missing the turrets falling off

We need two battleships duking it out.

All we need now is the Bismarck and hood

Comodo is embracing his internal IJN officer and bombarding a hospital. Remember, it is not a warcrime if you had fun!

Yamato power!!!!

Can we all agree on this? When Camodo uploads our day get a million times better.

Definitely want to see Yamato in a multiplayer

Fact: YAMATO sank in the Pacific ocean near Okinawa Island

Eyyyy! Amazing to see all of my best childhood youtubers still here!

The IJN Yamato is one of my favorite battleship thanks for making a video :)

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.

i just noticed the yamato in this game sunk historically like the musashi did by the same cause of bombs. kinda epic

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.

FIREING AT A HOSPITAL IS ONE OF THE WORST WAR CRIMES YOU CAN COMMIT. In my books at least

Finally The IJN Yamato. :D continue! It sank like it's sister instead of how it should sink

pretty realistic on how you sank the ship in stormworks, as the americans did spam like, a TON of bombs on the yamato.

Let's go

and maybe a pearl harbor or midway battle

How Yamato sank On 1945 April 7th the American operation 10 go was an operation to destroy the Yamato. Apparently, it was the hardest battleship mission for japan when they launched it but the Yamato was actually planned from 1935 and it took them from 1935 to1943. and what Yamato'smission was to protect the island of Okinawa. Then in 1945, they launched the mission or operation with 7 aircraft carriers which = almost 400 planes but they used 396 to attack and I think 148 went down from her, to be honest, she is a mad lad. anyways the Yamato sank before she capsized she was on a 45-degree angle on port and then she capsized and 1 min later she blows up in the main magazine which was so strong to split her in half then she sank in an up-side-down v-break. 3405 death on Yamato and 5 other ships sank. there you have it

"Theres a hospital over there I'm sure that's not a war crime." Best quote I've heard today.

It would be absolutely awesome to have two crews in battleships all out fightin in the sea

"I'm sure that's not a war crime"-Camodo,2023

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

I want to see this ship in bad waves and a bad storm.

Camodo: One shell from yamato will destroy a AI ship Historians: Yes a 18 inch Shell will kill them

If you see this I love your vids

They should make it so where if it hits the Magazines the ship splits in half in that area

If the ammo stowage was actually in the compartments. The Yamato might split up after a huge explosion

I'm a Big Fan Of Naval History And I Like This

15:32 Me Be Like:"Real Sh*t Nicely Done Now I'm Going Down Again!!"

I say technically you survived since sailors often sunk sinking Warships during WW II

Yesss YAMATO 大和

YAY YAMATO IS MY FAVORATIE BATTLESHIP

"We can bombard the island. Hey look, there's even a hospital there, I'm sure it's not a war crime" -Camodo Gaming 2021

“There’s no lifeboats... uhh... that’s not good” Me: YOU MUST SACRIFICE YOUR LIFE FOR DA EMPEROR

Survive just survive!

You're kind of saying it right camodo, it's yah-mah-toe, Yamato

You may possibly be my favorite KZfaqr

I loved the classic dramatic song!!!! keep up the good work!

"Come commander, let us enjoy the sky together."

That is actually how the real Yamato sink but with Torpedoes and like 5250 bombs

It wish I had this YAMATO

Loved this Video and history

you should with the yamato and musashi and play with od and spy and maybe frustrated gamer ww2 planes only

fun fact: a single main battery of yamato weigh as much as a destroyer

I Think Your The First One To Play The YAMATO In Storm works And Yeah Nice Gameplay Historical Warship Going To Be Sunk By Historical Aircrafts

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

it will be pretty cool

Tenno Heika Banzaii!!!!

Fun fact - The Yamato took 19 torpedos to sink

Now we need Space Battleship Yamato 2199 to become a thing in Stormworks.

Imagine getting 40 people and getting 2 yamato's and doing a 20v20 ship battle

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

is it a bird? is it a plane? it’s a- *BOOM*

Yay another video

Im a war fan so this is something huge to me

13:06 Ow That Hurts Man What's Beautiful To That Exploding Me?!

You can only call it a survival if you are on the ship till the bombing is over

i wish that he did the yamato in the kracken

You: Were gonan test the guns out in a sec Me: But it's been more then 1 second

The Yamato was the biggest battleship ever made

I love battleships

Yamato is my favorite battle ship

well.. historically accurate!

Cool

That fact that this is accurate to the way it actually sank

More battleships!!!

I will always support you

The Yamato was feared by the navy and airforce but all it took was a few bombs lol

7:03 actually Yamato’s main guns caliber is 460mm/18 inch

this video is based on a true story

Nice vid

its the IJN YAMATO yah-mah-to

this sank like the musashi!

I’m not complaining or anything because that Yamato recreation looks awesome, but it is looking a little on the skinny side

Yamato sank like her sister ship

when i saw this video i was almost expecting the Space Battleship Yamato

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...

Finally

love your vids

The yamato had 9 main guns all of witch were 18 inch they were so big that the British navy had 1 ship with a singular 18 inch gun (the HMS Furious) when fired its crew said that it snowed inside the "snow" was sawn off rivet heads. If the Yamato's guns were ever fired all at once it might have been heard halfway around the world

Can you check out the S/S Normandie 😎

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...

THAT WAS AWSOME, I LOVE YOUR VIDS!

The Yamato didn’t actually see much combat although it was the pride of the Japanese navy

I love battleships I am going to sub

Yamato got hit by bomb and a few torp to sink it but good vid

another fun fact, while it was sinking the forward battery exploded

I love the battleship YAMATO

Star Wars Music playing in the background XD

Bruh, nice intro. It's been so long since I last watched your videos

I LOVE YOUR VIDS

awsome video dude
