I too, found this video way to late in the evening but to tempted to skip!!!

Still paying for it this morning thank goodness for JAVA!!!!

Ok after seeing this video had questions on how the US planned there attack.
The sister ship Musashi was in several battles and the US found that hitting the bow with torpedos would slow her speed down to 10 kn.

In video they also talked abut the tightened security with the plans of Yamato
and that not one foreman or supervisor had a complete set of blue prints.
So on that aspect did the US know about the thick armored hull ??? Or just some fluke in History to attack one side to weaken her til her destruction ???
