See: Kwiatkowska, K. B.; Skwiot, M. Z.. "Geneza budowy japońskich pancerników typu Yamato" (in Polish). The first proposed name for it was Mammut (mammoth in german) but eventually got changed to Maus. Aunque la demanda de otro tipo de buques de guerra, hicieron que todos los trabajos sobre el diseño A-150 fueran detenidos, y ninguna de las dos unidades planeadas, llegó a ser puesta en grada. They had virtually no useful AA, would have been shorter in length and much deeper in draft (and thus, slow and unmaneuverable, even by Yamato standards), with a very slow ROF on a ship that had a lack of guns and mediocre fire control, and (amazingly) with sub-par protection. Insgesamt entfielen 661 t der 2.750 t des Zwillingsturmes auf die beiden 51,0-cm-Geschütze. Armed with the biggest guns in the game - 20.1" guns - it can sink a destroyer in five direct hits, and deals more than twice the amount of damage any other battleship shell in the game. Two battleships of an entirely new, and larger, design were planned as a part of the 1942 fleet replenishment program. Dunno which will make the game. Going with Mikawa as my name suggestion, be it for Super Yamato or perhaps a Yamato-class upgunned. I don't like seeing them named after presidents and worse after politicians who were never presidents. Say for some reason the Japanese pulled some voodoo Shinto magic and managed to gain the economy to build several of these ships along with the All Japanese BBs were named after provinces, or after alternative names for Japan. This may have been the result of overestimating the effectiveness of the lower belt armour against torpedoes, as well as an effort to decrease draft and to provide additional counter-flooding spaces.However, despite the immense armour thickness, the protection scheme of the Two battleships of an entirely new, and larger, design were planned as a part of the 1942 fleet replenishment program. Der Entwurf für diese Schiffe (Entwurf A-150) orientierte sich sehr stark an der Yamato-Klasse und sollte im Wesentlichen dieselben Abmessungen und Liniengebung haben wie diese und dürfte weitgehend baugleich gewesen sein. -umbauten, die sich am Entwurf der Yamato-Klasse orientierten und diese an Feuerkraft noch übertreffen sollten. Inwiefern sich der restliche Entwurf noch am Yamato-Design orientieren sollten, also quasi nur eine gestreckte Version der Super-Yamato-Klasse war, oder ob diese ein gänzlich neues Design bekommen hätten, ist nicht bekannt. Big caliber guns makes up for none of that. Es wurde auch zeitnah ein 1:1 Model der Munitions- und Umladekammern gebaut. The Super Yamato was released as part of the Mustang unit pack released on July 1, 2009. For exploratory sake, what type of names do you think this class of ship would've been given to these ships had they actually been constructed? You need to play a total of 10 battles to post in this section. Initially the designers called for 8-9 20.1” guns but tests indicated that the ships would then displace over 90,000 tons making them too large and costly. Nicht nur das größere Geschossgewicht musste berücksichtigt werden. The Yamato-class Battleship (大和型戦艦) of the Imperial Japanese Navy (IJN) were constructed and operated during World War II. Heck, I'm not thrilled that the USN changed its naming convention for aircraft carriers. 超大和型戦艦, Chō Yamato-gata senkan) handelte es sich um ein Planungsprojekt für japanische Schlachtschiffneubauten bzw.
