Battleship Yamato History:

The Yamato-class battleships (大和型戦艦, Yamato-gata senkan) were two battleships of the Imperial Japanese Navy (IJN), Yamato and Musashi, laid down leading up to World War II and completed as designed. A third hull laid down in 1940 was converted to an aircraft carrier, Shinano, during construction.

Displacing 72,000 long tons (73,000 t) at full load, the completed battleships were the heaviest ever constructed. The class carried the largest naval artillery ever fitted to a warship, nine 460-millimetre (18.1 in) naval guns, each capable of firing 1,460 kg (3,220 lb) shells over 42 km (26 mi).

Due to the threat of American submarines and aircraft carriers, both Yamato and Musashi spent the majority of their careers in naval bases at Brunei, Truk, and Kure—deploying on several occasions in response to American raids on Japanese bases.

All three ships were sunk by the U.S. Navy, Musashi while participating in the Battle of Leyte Gulf in October 1944, as part of Admiral Kurita’s Center Force, lost to American carrier aircraft; the still incomplete Shinano was torpedoed ten days after her commissioning in November 1944 by the submarine USS Archerfish; and Yamato, also ravaged by carrier planes, in April 1945 during Operation Ten-Go.

 

The design of the Yamato-class battleships was shaped by expansionist movements within the Japanese government, Japanese industrial power, and the need for a fleet powerful enough to intimidate likely adversaries.. Most importantly, the latter, in the form of the Kantai Kessen (“Decisive Battle Doctrine”), a naval strategy adopted by the Imperial Japanese Navy prior to the Second World War, in which the Japanese navy would win a war by fighting and winning a single, decisive naval action.

The final design called for a standard displacement of 64,000 long tons (65,000 t) and a full-load displacement of 69,988 long tons (71,111 t), making the ships of the class the largest battleships yet designed, and the largest battleships ever constructed. The design called for a main armament of nine 460 mm naval guns, mounted in three triple-gun turrets—each of which weighed more than a 1930s-era destroyer. The designs were quickly approved by the Japanese Naval high command, over the objections of naval aviators, who argued for the construction of aircraft carriers rather than battleships. In all, five Yamato-class battleships were planned.

    Thanks to WarBricks, I now have this behemoth of a ship to look forward to look at and play with here and there within my room. The set is practically a masterpiece! Cobi really did their thing with this set, the amount of detail with the bow design, AA gun arrangement, and superstructure all done beautifully. Looking forward to more!

    Another awesome set from Cobi! I have several battleship sets and all of them are incredible. It’s a joy to put these together and display. Plus, Warbricks is THE BEST vendor to but them from – have fun!

  3. Ryan (verified owner)

    Huge, highly detailed, beautiful shape, and strong construction. I absolutely recommend Yamato if you’re looking for a fun and challenging build. It looks fantastic on the shelf. Thank you Warbricks!

  4. Ryan (verified owner)

    Yamato is a fun and challenging build. It has a very sturdy hull with numerous beautiful details and makes a great showpiece. I’m thrilled with the purchase. Thank you Warbricks!

  5. Alex K (verified owner)

    All I can say is Wow! I had previously gotten HMS Hood and thought that was a massive vessel but this was larger in practically every regard. In my opinion the hull is more accurate on this version. I got the Standard version so it matches my other ships. I’m highly impressed with the build quality, accuracy and mass of this model. A must buy.

  6. vsimpson105 (verified owner)

    Wanted this model for a long time finally got one and loved building it. Liked building it so much I bought a second kit. (true) COBI is the best, and so is service from WAR BRICKS/Vern

  7. Erik (verified owner)

    Great model, each new ship that is released gets more and more detailed, had a lot of fun putting this one together and can’t wait to add more to my collection.

  8. wheathug666 (verified owner)

    I have been waiting a long time for the Yamato set to be remade. Easily one my favorite ship builds.

  9. David Kiechle (verified owner)

    Outstanding set, amazingly detailed and a lot of fun to build 🙂

  10. Jason Chen (verified owner)

    The mass of these thing placed next to Bismarck and Enterprise is really something and the hull curvature is spectacular in person, capturing the bulbous bow and torpedo bulges. Set aside a big enough space for this bad boy!

  11. Tom f (verified owner)

    Great customer service.. really enjoyed working with them!

  12. Frederick Kitz (verified owner)

    A fantastic updated model of the Yamato! Fun and challenging build, looks amazing when completed. A must have for Cobi naval fans. Highly recommend. Thanks Warbricks team.

  13. Jared A (verified owner)

    Excellent model, captures the lines of the bow very well, definitely one of my favorite ship builds. As an added bonus, the superstructure doesn’t have very complicated masts as some ships do, which is always the fiddliest bit of these builds I find.

  14. Travis D Johnson (verified owner)

    Another fantastic Cobi Battleship! I started with the Bismarck, and I was HOOKED! HMS Hood, and USS Arizona followed. Now with the Yamato, my fleet is complete! Pictures don’t do these ships justice, they are truly impressive. The quality and design of Cobi’s products are outstanding! Thank you War Bricks, for your excellent costumer service, prices, and speed of delivery!

  15. Tristan Thompson (verified owner)

    Very nice addition to my collection. great quality and detail. Worth the hours.

  16. Scott (verified owner)

    Great build, i was surprised how solid the hull was. Warbricks was great to work with!!!

  17. zekintha25 (verified owner)

    A great build. Another model with great service from Warbricks and design by Cobi. I liked the size and detail of the model. The build also provides a history lesson (at least a Wikipedia review). I have built the Belfast, Enterprise, Graf Zeppelin, and Yamato. I plan to purchase additional ships.

  18. Michael Jesse (verified owner)

    Fantastic kit. Hours of satisfying building and the finished model is nothing short of impressive. And I’m reminded of the historical significance of the ship every time I look at it. Previously built the USS Enterprise which enticed me to buy the Yamato. When I built the Enterprise, it was missing a piece and I must say the customer service from Cobi was top notch. Got the missing piece sent to me from Poland in a little over a week. I’ll be looking at moving on to the submarine and WWII airplane kits. Thanks Warbricks.

  19. Evelyn (verified owner)

    Thank you so much! This is a Christmas gift for my husband and came quickly and well packaged and was an awesome price. I expect it will be a fun build for him as usual with Cobi, and I plan to buy his sets from here from now on.

  20. Jordan FitzGerald (verified owner)

    This was my 5th set from War Bricks/COBI (4th WWII ship), and it was the first time a piece was missing (two actually). But I followed the site’s instructions and requested replacements from COBI, so hopefully those will arrive soon. Otherwise fantastic product and service, as always.
