In a time when air bombing and air torpedoing had already rendered battleships practically obsolete. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
8,152 [SOUP] Chobittsu Members 9,392 posts Report post #2 Posted November 1, 2017 The age of battleships ended when the IJN sunk PoW and Repulse without so much as breaking a sweat. Yamato was built for a war that never arrived, though she could have bumped heads with the USN several times, the yanks were just smart enough to stay out of her way thanks to their codebreaking. Why fight her and risk your ships and men when you can just sail around her? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
