Description

Documentary about Japan's most famous WWII battleship. In April of 1945, the Japanese military command sent the Yamamoto on a kamikaze mission to defeat a large US fleet off the coast of Japan. With guns of awesome calibre and massive armour, the Yamamoto was considered to be virtually unsinkable. Yet she would be sunk, in just four hours, during one of the last naval battles of the war. This programme tells the ship's story from its creation as the flagship of Japanese naval power, through its part in the battle of Midway, up to its last suicide sortie and beyond. In 1999 a Japanese salvage crew set off on a multi-million dollar mission to find the final resting place of the pride of Japan. Three hundred and fifty metres down, the Yamato lay largely intact on the floor of the South China Sea. Some of the first ever pictures of the remains of history's largest battleship offer not only a solemn tribute to the brave sailors who died for their country, but also a clue to what actually happened in the ship's final moments.
