【 A real heavy hitter 】 The
Musashi was the second ship in the Yamato class of battleships built by
the Japanese Navy. Her most distinguishing features were her 9 huge
46cm guns, which had a range of 41km and could penetrate 43cm of armor
plating at a distance of up to 30km. The massive ship had a displacement
of over 70,000 tons, and was laid down on March 29, 2013. Some two and a
half years later in November 1940 she was launched and finally
commissioned for service on August 5, 1942. In order to provide the best
defensive capability possible, she employed an astonishing 21,000 tons
of armor plating; in addition, the ship was made a short as possible and
its layout grouped key parts such as the bridge in the center of the
ship. After serving as the flagship of the Japanese fleet from February
1943 to March 1944, she took part in combat operations in the
Philippines. On October 24, 1944, Musashi was attacked by several U.S.
planes and took a number of torpedo hits leading to her sinking.
