Something new...

[Fumo_Crusader]

WW2 ships are way better then modern ships change my mind

"Bismarck sinking was horrible" Yamato has entered the chat.

edit: i've never gotten so many likes before

[fnafplayz]

Atleast the Bismarck didn't split in half while sinking

[lamenters]

I remember the time Bismarck got lucky destroying the hood through a shot in it's armory room

[j.h]

The fact that Bismarck singking hood. While Yamato for most of war duration just become hotel

[WildmanTrading]

Who else thinks that every barrel on the Yamato having its own elevation mechanism is REALLY cool.

[tuhhjju]

Bismarck and Yamato are both great battleships, but the difference in specs is too drastic for comparison.

[satoimo]

bismarck
Broadside: 320mm
Deck armor 110mm
Main gun mantlet 360mm
Main gun side 220mm
Main gun rear 320mm
Main gun top plate 130mm
Main gun barbet 340mm
Control Tower 350mm

yamato
Broadside 410mm＋15mm (inclination 20 degrees)
Deck armor 250mm
Main gun mantlet 660mm
Main gun side 250mm
Main gun rear 190mm
Main gun top plate 270mm
Main gun barbet 560mm
Control Tower 500mm

The Bismarck had only 145mm on the upper part of the broadside.

Yamato is overwhelmingly superior, not a difference that can be filled by the quality of armor

[ddland]

It's amusing to read how some people think the Bismarck would have a favorable chance against the Yamato. Bismarck was mortally wounded by a single 14 inch shell that caused the German ship to cancel its raiding mission and head for France for repairs. Also note that Rodney's 16 in shells ripped through the coning tower, the thickest armor on the Bismarck. How does anyone imagine the Bismarck surviving the destructive power of the Yamato's 18 in guns? Yamato's armor could withstand the power of it's own guns. What could 15 in shells do against that? The only advantages Bismarck had were superior speed and range finders which might give Bismarck an initial edge until Yamato's guns found Bismarck and started to eviscerate her.

BISMARCK IS THE RULER OF THE SEVEN SEAS!

Bismarck: *Sinks because got hit by alot of torpedos*
Yamato: 💀 *Casually eating 250 bombs*💀

[alistairdiren]

Any BB in Yamato place during The suicidal run to Okinawa will sink much much faster than Yamato, the so called *Terror of the Seas* would have fallen under the barrage of bombs and torpedoes in a couple of minutes including the AA monsters like the Iowa she too would have gone down much more quickly than Yamato but she will bring down many planes with her before succumbing to the barrage.

[sonjawalker]

To be honest, The Yamato only got away with her size. The Bismarck actually put up a fight even though torn apart to bits till the end.

[francisvlogs]

Fun fact:only 1% of the gun of Yamato can hit an target because the crew of the Yamato was not trained when it's aboard to the sea

[deathblood]

Why was accuracy not put in the category?
Being able to hit your opponent is one of the 2 most important here, what's the point of a big gun that doesn't hit?

[Gelaviation]

Can you do HMS Dreadnought vs USS North Dakota?

[Archidon-sd]

DAMM I LOVE YAMATO NEVER BEAT THE POWER OF THE JAPAN!

[jyyxznh]

The Yamato is a powerful ship and one could only image how crazy it would be modernized. All that AA plus the large cannons. Would really be a terrifying boat.

[rogertime]

I'll agree to that becouse Germany already knew there warship (Bismarck) still won't past thr power of the japanese navy
