Yamato Kai — Japan Special Tier X Battleship.

The preliminary draft design of the battleship developed in Japan in the mid-1930s had a displacement of 49,000–69,500 tons, a speed of 24–31 knots, and a main gun caliber of 410–460 mm in various versions. The final version was Yamato, the largest battleship in the world. Admiral Yamamoto took command of the Japanese forces from her bridge during the Battle of Midway. On April 7, 1945, Yamato was sunk off the island of Kyūshū by attacking U.S. Navy aircraft during Operation Ten-Go.

Pros

  • AP shells do not ricochet off the plating of ships of an equal tier
  • Long firing range, high firing accuracy of the main battery
  • Yamato Kai is a clone of Yamato with Special Ship benefits

Cons

  • Low gun traverse speed: Enemies at closer ranges are likely to outpace your guns
  • Low ship manuverability: Low speed, handling and a slow rudder for her tier.
  • Highly vulnerable citadel at close ranges, identical to that of Yamato
