Yamato-class Battleship IJN Yamato (1942)

You need a custom dock to be able to spawn her! For further information, check this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xLVBHfnUMkY
You need to set your game physics to low so the ship doesn't lag your computer to oblivion.


Yamato for some need no introductions (For some). She was the ship that carried the biggest guns (by caliber) to this day. One of the reasons the japanese wanted to quit the Washington Naval Treaty and in the end was just a big target ship on the way of USN.

She was the biggest and heaviest vessel built on WW2. Displacing 71,659 t fully loaded, measuring 263m in lenght and 38.9m in beam. She had 2 sister ships: Musashi and Shinano.

For propulsion she had 12 Kampon boilers and 4 turbines on 4 shafts clocking up at 150.000 sHP propelling her a 27 knots.



The ship originally was fitted with the almighty Type 94 18.1 inch (460mm) by 45cal on a ABX format. Those guns and turrets combined weighted more than most standard destroyers at the time. On the original fitting she was equipped with 4 triple Type 3 6.1 inch (155mm) turrets but later two (on the wings) got removed so even more AA could be placed. 6 twin Type 89 5 inch (127mm) dual purpose turrets where placed on the side of the superstructure but later 6 more got installed since planes started to be a threat. Only 8 triple 1 inch (25mm) autocannons where installed on her but since her crew needed more things to do when they where being attacked by planes, an extra of 152 triple mounts where installed making the total number of 162 triple Type 96 25mm Type C mounts.


She has been originally created for an WW2 even for the SMH server along with her sister ship Musashi (that is coming soon, hopefully). She started very ugly and with a hull that could resemble the despicable thing that WoWs players call as "Izumo". I focused in keeping her optimized so the moderator could accept it and it actually be used in battle. It was used in battle against the USS Georgia from Aqua and both ships got injured in that battle. There is actually a video on Youtube on that battle but unfortunately I can't find it.
After the war ended, I started to enhance the ship slowly because I had the intent to upload it to the WS since day one but as it looked I just couldn't let myself post that atrocity.

After almost 2 years of development it finally reached a decent state so I just posted it.

I tried to make her as historically accurate as possible while trying to make her both "runnable" and optimized.

The primary and secondary guns are fully functional and have their respective rangefinder. You can aim and shoot the guns with a very high degree of accuracy once you found the range using the radar or the rangefinder itself.




Go to the bridge, seat on the driver seat and press 1 then mash the W key until the throttle value gets to 0.65. Wait until the ship starts moving. use A and D to move the ship.


There are two seats that control the guns - one for each type of gun. The one on the first lower deck is the one to control the secondaries (seat named Rangefinder Commander - Secondary Battery) and the one on the second lower deck is the one to control the primary armament (seat named Fire Control Officer - Rangefinder Operator).

Both seats have similar control schemes for ease of use.
To begin controlling the guns, press 2 to toggle the rangefinder system and make it able to move. Use the up/down arrow keys to zoom in case you cannot see anything.
Once you find what you want to shoot, check if the range can be acquired through visual (laser distance sensor). If your range was acquired, press 4 to send the distance to the ballistics calculator. If you couldn't acquire range through the laser distance sensor (anything 2 km+) press 5 to switch to radar plotting and once you acquired the distance repeat the last step to give the distance to the ballistics computer. Press space to shoot and wait until your target sinks. If it doesn't, pull the trigger until it does.


Halmosi1, the one who endured me making this thing since the start and initially gave me the prototype guns that where fitted for a sketch of the ship.
AegiusX3 ,the one who helped me greatly during the development of the project pointing out what I should do to make it better.
Vulkan_VS, the one who always gives me the will to continue these long projects.
Rowan, the one who gave me the sketch of the FCS so the guns could work as well as they do.
